"(Reuters) - Libyan officials said on Tuesday dozens of civilians had been killed in a NATO strike on a cluster of farmhouses east of Tripoli, but the alliance said it hit a legitimate military target...
A spokesman for Gaddafi's government, who took foreign reporters to the scene of the strike, said 85 people had been killed when missiles struck farm compounds in the village of Majar, about 150 km (90 miles) east of Tripoli. He said the dead were 33 children, 32 women and 20 men.
Standing on a pile of rubble, Moussa Ibrahim told reporters: "This is a crime beyond imagination. Everything about this place is civilian."
There was no evidence of weaponry at the farmhouses but neither was there immediately visible blood or body parts...(no body parts? Aah that explains it!)"

The images were on Libyan TV for all to see. Burned bodies and limbs everywhere! It was terrible. 85 civilians from 20 different families. This is very telling about the direction Al-Akhbar is heading to.
