NATO warplane kills Qaddafi's youngest son and grandchildren

Earlier today, at least one missile from a NATO warplane hit the house where Qaddafi was residing. Qaddafi had been visiting his youngest son, Saif al-Arab Qaddafi, who was killed as well as three grandchildren. Saif al-Arab Qaddafi was not an important person in the Qaddafi family, and did not hold any important roles in the government. However this was more of a moral blow to the tyrannic leader of Libya. Qaddafi and his wife were not wounded by the air strike. Qaddafi had begun to negotiate a cease fire with NATO and the rebel forces. Let's hope this event does not jeopardize that situation.
