Libya's Pathway to Peace

That's what Obama, Cameron and Sarkozy have charted in a letter that has appeared in major publications around the world. The pathway, as you would expect, begins with Gaddafi losing power. As the leaders write, "Gaddafi must go and go for good." Howsomever, they also write, "Our duty and our mandate under U.N. Security Council Resolution 1973 is to protect civilians, and we are doing that. It is not to remove Gaddafi by force. But it is impossible to imagine a future for Libya with Gaddafi in power."

So, how do you think Gaddafi will go since he will not be removed "by force"? Here is a clue.
