A photo dated 24 July 2008 shows Saif al-Islam Muammar Gaddafi speaking in front of a giant poster showing his father, the Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, at a gathering in Tripoli, Libya. Addressing the nation on Libyan TV late 20 February 2011, the son warned of conspiracies that might take the country into civil war, and accused the opposition of trying to break up the country. Emboldened by the successful revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt, thousands of Libyans have been calling for the ouster of Gaddafi, who..has been in power for 41 years. EPA/SABRI ELMHEDWI
