(AP Photo/Jerome Delay) Iman al-Obeidi, the Libyan who broke through Moammar Gadhafi's media control to accuse his troops of gang rape, is headed to the United States. Al-Obeidi had been staying in Qatar until that nation inexplicably expelled her Thursday, and she ended up back in her native Benghazi. Al-Obeidi's sister tells the AP that Hillary Clinton and a human rights organization, worried for her safety in Benghazi, made arrangements to fly al-Obeidi and their father to an undisclosed location in the States.
