Since then, U.S. officials speaking on the condition of anonymity have acknowledged the CIA has had a small number of so-called "spotters" on the ground to assist in the NATO mission. It's also well known that other foreign governments have sent special operations forces to fight on the ground with the rebels.

The UK government have been rather open about special forces being there, although you could argue they had little choice after a bunch of them were arrested.

There's been a fair bit on the news of late about CIA and MI6 being in and around Libya. Possibly in relation to rendition?
