Muammar Gaddafi and Libyan crisis

Re: Muammar Gaddafi and Libyan crisis

It is my opinion that the invasion of Libya was the kneejerk reaction of the west to the loss of influence in Egypt. I have a feeling Libya is going to be the Columbia of Africa where it will be the only puppet nation left on the continent and will be deemed irrelevent by the rest of the countries on that continent. The USA is starting to remind me of the "sick man of europe".

Actually the influence of the West in Egypt and the Middle East has increased enormously.

This Russian politician puts it very well:

“The faces of the leaders of ‘world democracies’ are so happy, as if they remembered how they hanged stray cats in basements in their childhoods,” Russian envoy to NATO and the leader of the Congress of Russian Communities, Dmitry Rogozin, wrote in his twitter status on Friday.

Freaking savages.....what do expect from the original Arab tribes. They treated him like a rat. I was gonne post the videos of his capture and execution (several body shots and a head shot), and how he was dragged around and beaten up, but it might be too graphic for this forum. This is what happens when you become a puppet of USA and then turn on them.....you will get a democratic bullet through your head.

Kanada: You would have lost the bet. I told you he was as good as dead.

He's dead in the media... I don't believe a man who had full control over a country for 40+ years didn't have an escape plan

What does Gaddafi's death mean for Africa?


A grandson of Nelson Mandela is named Gadaffi
- a sign of how popular the late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi once was in South Africa and many other African countries.

.......
"Muammar Gaddafi, whatever his faults, is a true nationalist.
I prefer nationalists to puppets of foreign interests," Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said in February.

....

Re: Muammar Gaddafi and Libyan crisis

Reading between the lines it seems that he was captured alive however the idiots executed him.

In order to transition towards a Democracy you need to first create the right kind of institutions. However I can't say that I have a great deal of confidence in this crowd either in Libya or Egypt. Mind you Libya has $70 billion in Western assets and they certainly have enough money to develop their nation.

Libya's Col Muammar Gaddafi was killed in crossfire after being captured in his birthplace of Sirte, officials say.

Acting Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril said he had been shot in the head in an exchange between Gaddafi loyalists and National Transitional Council fighters. He confirmed that Col Gaddafi, who had been taken alive, had died before reaching hospital.

Nato's governing body, meeting in the coming hours, is expected to declare an end to its Libyan bombing campaign. Nato Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said that with the death of Col Gaddafi "that moment has now moved much closer".

"After 42 years, Col Gaddafi's rule of fear has finally come to an end," he said. "I call on all Libyans to put aside their differences and work together to build a brighter future." Wild scenes of celebration continued late into the night in towns and cities across Libya at news of the colonel's death.

Groups of young men fired guns in the air, and drivers honked their horns in celebration. In the capital, Tripoli, cars clogged the city centre.

I hope they do the same to Aliyev when he doesn't cooperate with the West with his oil.

Aliyev seems to be a team player... he doesn't seem like the type to defy his masters.
