Well ain't that special.
But unless Gaddafi steps down the rebels will not be happy.
It sounds like no one talked to the rebels in any of the negotiations, outsiders did all the talking with Gaddafi; not with anyone who started this whole pile of crap.
Supposedly they will have a little sit down today and the rebels will be told what they need to accept, you can probably bet this ain't over yet.

A rebel spokesman said any deal designed to keep Colonel Gaddafi or his sons in place would not be acceptable
South African President Jacob Zuma says the Libyan government has accepted an African Union peace proposal to end the eight-week-old conflict.
Mr Zuma's AU delegation met Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi in Tripoli on Sunday. An AU team is going to the eastern rebel stronghold of Benghazi.
But rebel spokesmen said there could be no truce unless Col Gaddafi stepped down and his forces withdrew.
In Ajdabiya, pro-Gaddafi forces have pushed back rebels in fierce fighting.
Nato says its planes destroyed 25 government tanks on Sunday alone.
The alliance said it had "taken note" of the AU initiative and welcomed efforts to save Libyan civilians.

SANAA (Reuters) - Yemen's Shi'ite northern rebels accept the government's terms for a ceasefire, their leader said on Saturday, but there was no immediate response from the authorities.
Yemen, facing insurgency in the north and secessionists in the south, has been under international scrutiny since the Yemeni arm of al Qaeda claimed responsibility for an abortive bid to blow up a U.S.-bound plane with 300 people on board.
"In order to avoid ... the annihilation of civilians, we reiterate our acceptance of the five points" for a ceasefire, rebel leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said in an audio recording posted on the Internet. "The ball is now in the court of the other side."
Yemen, the Arab world's poorest country, has been battling the intermittent revolt since 2004. The fighting intensified in August when the army launched a major offensive named Operation Scorched Earth, and the conflict drew in Saudi Arabia in November when the rebels seized some territory on its border.
Government conditions include removal of rebel checkpoints, withdrawal of forces and clarification of the fate of kidnapped foreigners. The rebels must return captured military and civilian equipment and not enter local politics.
Britain hosted talks in London this week to try to prevent Yemen becoming a failed state after the abortive December 25 attack on a plane approaching Detroit drove home how al Qaeda could threaten Western interests from Yemen.
Western powers, neighbors and financial institutions pledged to support and help finance Yemen's efforts to impose law, order and stability.
