Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi is appealing to U.S. President Barack Obama to halt the NATO operation to protect opponents of his regime.
In a letter to Obama obtained by the Associated Press, Gadhafi implores Obama to stop what he called an “unjust war against a small people of a developing country.”
A U.S. official confirms the Americans think the rambling, three-page letter is authentic.
In the letter, sent today, Gadhafi says his country had been hurt more morally than physically by the NATO campaign, and a democratic society could not be built through missiles and aircraft. He also repeated his claim that his foes are members of al-Qaida.
