Qaddafi: how much time left?

"...The rebels, who lack their own air wing, waited until after U.S.-led coalition air strikes destroyed Gadhafi air forces and cornered his ground troops. The rebels then attacked Gadhafi's remaining soldiers with small arms fire until they were killed, went into hiding or retreated to just past Brega. Abandoned uniforms could be found scattered throughout Ajdabiya.... Gadhafi's government said its forces pulled back willingly and suggested that rebels had done nothing to recapture lost territory.Coalition forces "were heavily involved, so the Libyan armed forces decided to leave Ajdabiya this morning," Khaled Kaim, a deputy foreign minister said in Tripoli Saturday..."
