By Sara Terry • • 53m ListenRebels have launched an assault on Moammar Gadhafi's compound in Tripoli, even as the dictator remains in hiding. As what appear to be the final rounds of battle play out, questions are being raised about Libya's future. Will the rebels be able to lead a peaceful transition, or will their efforts be undermined by factionalism within their ranks? On this rebroadcast of today's To the Point, guest host Sara Terry explores who will control the nation's oil reserves, and how oil wealth will be used. What impact will events in Libya have on the rest of the region, and how should the West respond? Also, the California charter schools get a massive grant from the Walton Family Foundation, and and the unraveling of the sexual assault case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
