It is their choice to make how they operate moving forward. And  they will be held accountable for whatever violence continues to take  place," Obama said during remarks in the Oval Office Monday.Libyan warplanes launched multiple airstrikes on opposition fighters in  the second day of a government crackdown to thwart rebels advancing on  Gadhafi's stronghold in Tripoli.APNATO boosts AWACs surveillance flights over LibyaA senior U.S. official says NATO has decided to boost flights of  AWACs surveillance planes over Libya as the alliance debates the utility  of imposing a "no-fly zone" over the country.                                                 U.S. Ambassador to NATO Ivo Daalder says allies agreed  Monday to increase AWACs flights from 10 to 24 hours a day.
