Killer Chemist: Will Gaddafi strike back?

The UN has called for restraint in Libya amid reports of abuses and alleged summary killings by both rebels and Gaddafi loyalists. The Security Council has also agreed to release 1.5 billion-dollars in Libyan assets to help deal with humanitarian needs. The opposition continues to claim that Tripoli is largely under its control, while the National Transitional Council says it's moved from its stronghold of Benghazi to the capital. Meanwhile, the Pentagon says it's monitoring Libyan sites containing stockpiles of chemical weapons and is pledging to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.
