US rebuffs Gaddafi plea to Obama on air campaign
US. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday rebuffed a personal appeal from Muammar Gaddafi to President Barack Obama and demanded the Libyan leader withdraw his forces and go into exile.
Obama received a rambling, three-page letter from Gaddafi asking for a halt to a Western air campaign against his forces, but US officials bluntly dismissed the plea. (Reuters)
