Local KCRG just reported that Ghaddafi is agreeing to step down
if he can get safe passage out of Libya. No link yet. Just heard on this ABC affiliate.

1. This is also being reported at ndtv.com
http://www.ndtv.com/article/world/gadaffi-looking-for-deal-to-exit-libya-90231
According to the report, he wants cash and immunity.
London: Colonel Moammar Gaddafi has hinted that he is ready to quit Libya after 41 years in power only if the rebel interim council gives him a pile of cash and assures him immunity from criminal prosecution, a media report said.

6. Seems like cash would be the least of his concerns. Now immunity from prosecution
would be a different matter. I'm not sure than anyone in Libya could grant him immunity from prosecution by the ICC even if they wanted to, which they may not.

4. Heard it on local radio here as well
with a caveat that the report was denied.

5. Even if there is any truth to this
I doubt that they're going to be willing to give him immunity and cash.
