Now that ICC has formally indicted Gaddafi for crimes against humanity. He officially has become a wanted man. So what does this mean to the UN led coalition in Libya against Gaddafi regime? Before ICC rendered it indictment, there was hope that French led coalition may break Gaddafi will and forces him to step down or leave the country. Now that he is a criminal, that hope is completely gone. It appears that there will be least countries in the region to take him in should he decides to relinquish power.
This left Gaddafi with no other choice except to try hold to power as long as he breathes. It also means, the hope to bring the campaign to an end soon is also gone. And with no coalition troops on the ground in Libya, I am afraid that ICC indictment of Col. Gaddafi has complicated the Libyan’s conflict by it decision to indict Gaddafi at this critical time in the coalition.
