Gadhafi urges Libyans to fight NATO

TRIPOLI - Libyan state television early on Monday broadcast what it said was a live speech by Muammar Gadhafi calling on the Libyan people to arm themselves to liberate the country from "traitors and from NATO."

The speech, which was broadcast in audio only with no images, was the first time Gadhafi had spoken in public since rebel fighters launched their biggest offensive in months in the area around Tripoli.
