If the Rebels are smart they'll want to establish legitimacy very quickly with Nato and the UN so that any sanctions will be lifted and they can get the Oil flowing.

In order to do that if they get Ghadafi alive they will want to send him to the international courts to face charges of Crimes against Humanity.

The last thing that they want is a dead martyr driving a mini insurgency.
