It looks like we can this one done - Qaddafi Forces Mass Outside Rebels’ Western Stronghold

"Forces loyal to Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi massed Thursday outside the city of Misurata — the last major rebel foothold in the west — apparently in preparation for an attack, as the rebels at both ends of the country’s coast battled to hold off the Qaddafi forces and their superior firepower.

Musa Ibrahim, a spokesman for the Qaddafi government, confirmed that its forces were preparing to take Misurata just as they did Zawiyah, another western town that had been held by the rebels.

“It starts in the beginning by surrounding the city,” he said, “then moving slowly to avoid casualties.” Rebels in Zawiyah described heavy casualties — at least dozens — during the Qaddafi forces’ siege of that city.

“It should be finished up tomorrow if not today,” Mr. Ibrahim added."

It may not end so quickly the UN have imposed a no-fly zone over all of Libya and are supposedly sending French, British and US aircraft down to enforce it. The way things are going it probably won't work and thousands are going to die there fighting while waiting for aid.

The thing that is funniest (well it would be if people weren't dying) is now that the UN is finally doing something the people who encouraged this rebellion in the first place are demanding that a "peaceful" solution be found by the UN instead.
