"NATO prepares for armed intervention in Libya," headlines Público in the wake ofremarks made by US President Barack Obama, who has stated that the alliance is evaluating "military options," and by NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, who declared that the “widespread and systematic attacks against the civilian population” employed by Gaddafi in his attempt to quell the uprising “may amount to crimes against humanity." The Madrid daily also notes that the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) have asked the UN to establish a no-fly zone over Libya.
