Gaddafi refuses to quit amid Libya protests

Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi has refused to stand down amid widespread anti-government protests.



In his first major speech since unrest began last week, Colonel Gaddafi said the whole world looked up to Libya and that protestors were serving the devil.



Reading from the country's constitution, he said enemies of Libya would be executed.



Rights groups say nearly 300 have been killed in the violence so far.



A defiant and angry Colonel Gaddafi said that he had brought glory to Libya.



He said since he has no official position from which to resign, he would remain the head of the revolution.
