Moammar Gadhafi's better armed and organized troops reversed the westward charge of Libyan rebels as world powers met in London on Tuesday to plot the country's future without the "brother leader."

Without air strikes, it appears the rebels are not able to hold ground or make advances. The battle around Sirte, Gadhafi's birthplace, will show if the rebels have reached their limit.
