TRIPOLI, Libya — Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, the former Libyan strongman who fled into hiding after rebels toppled his regime two months ago in the Arab Spring’s most violent uprising, was killed Thursday as fighters battling the vestiges of his loyalist forces wrested control of his hometown of Surt, the interim government announced.

Al-Jazeera television showed what it said was Colonel Qaddafi’s corpse as jubilant fighters in Surt fired automatic weapons in the air, punctuating what appeared to be an emphatic and violent ending to his four decades as the self-proclaimed king of kings of Africa.

He looks like he could be a cult film director

I can't help but feel as if this act is going to end up being utterly pointless. Look at what's happening in Egypt right now... different "rulers," but is anyone better off? Absolute power and all that. I'm glad Qaddafi has been... removed from power (I would never champion anyone's death), but unless it spurs significant cultural change, I think the celebrations are preemptive at best.

Gaddafi was actually a somewhat decent leader, this will not be good for Libya or Africa...

They did have a fairly good reason for overthrowing him.

He was stopping the ethnic cleansing and upsurge of religion though.

And now quality of life will go down for Libyans.

I agree fuck NATO.

> Turn a desert into the most prosperous nation in modern Africa
> Supply free water to citizens, despite being a desert
> Give free college, expand irrigation

Gaddafi wanted to start selling oil to China instead of the West, instate a gold-backed currency that the entire Arab League would use in trading oil (as in, the West would have to buy that currency to be able to use it to buy oil), and distribute the profits from the state-owned oil industry directly to the people.

His own legislature blocked that last one, and I'm guessing that the Arabs ratted him out. Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Jordan, etc. are all in the league with the West. Their Muslim "monarchs" are no more than ZOG pawns.


Oh dear Jesus this is disgusting. He devoted his life to his country and turned it into the best in Africa. The Libyan people were as well-off as southern Europeans. Free education, free healthcare, gas at 0.1€ per liter, government pays half of the car you buy, every child gets a huge sum of money as a gift from the "evil dictator", you even get money for getting married so you can buy a house for your family. The fucking savage desert mudrats got all this and dared to complain? They overthrew a man who loved his people and in exchange get to pretend they're democratic while in reality they'll have a lengthy civil war which will result in some kind of a chaotic parliamentary puppet state. Nobody opposed the rebels, everyone were on their side. Otherwise we wouldn't be in this situation.

The rewards for being nice, wanting good and loving the world? Ingratitude, hatred and death. I hate everyone for hating Gaddafi. Exterminate everything, they're all idiotic brainless cattle. I now begin to understand how the jews think, how can people be respected when they don't know what's good for themselves?

Fuck Libya, fuck the people, fuck the entire continent of Africa. Recolonize it and enslave them, they hated the only man who wanted to help them.

It was stupid of me to think muslims could respond to any problem without resorting to violence and durka durr retarded religion.

That's not the same thing at all. How can you be okay with taking away someone's freedom? Isn't that half the reason that you hate religion?

Christ. That was quite a suprise.

@238,246 (M)Hhe was going to get taken down eventually. It's a lot more difficult to be an opressive dictator in the age of information.

Anyway, I think that the NTC will do an okay job of running things. They've done a good job so far.
