MrMoran Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 According to the BBC - interesting times ahead! Ive no time for Gaddaffi but i cant help feeling sorry for him at the end. What an horrific way to go being set upon by that mob wanting to rip him into tiny pieces. Not the way id like to spend my last few seconds on earth i can tell you.

callippo Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I have no reason to lie as I mentioned they are OLD family friends. Nowhere did I mention they were ancient Jews. what were they then? Just foreign expats that happen to be Jewish and living behind the walls in a compound and keeping very quiet about being Jewish, as you will find, or more accurately probably not find if they're not stupid enough to broadcast it, just about everywhere in the Gulf? the Jewish community of Libya, which is 3,000 years old, is over. It's gone. Finito. There's not a single one left. Some French or American Jewish person working for an oil company on a temporary contract or a foreign English teacher doesn't count.

The surprising thing is that most of them went to live in Israel, well not really very surprising but I'm sure many people will say they didn't go to Israel because Israel is full of Europeans.

townblade Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 no matter how much the left try to weasel out of it now, there's no question Gaddaffi was a hero to the Socalist Worker crowd and not just them either. As usual they delude themselves that these tyrants are 'anti imperialists' just because they have this cosmetic anti-western rhetoric. Chavez is basically today's version of what Gadaffi was in the 1980s. I attended a WRP meeting in London once as a teenager and when it finished the whole lot of them started to chant 'GADAFFI GADAFFI GADAFFI!'. numbskulls. You are right there mate about the shirkers revolutionary party. They are saying he died a hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeX Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 New footage shows Gaddafi pleading for his life moment before he is shot in cold blood. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-15390188 Even though its good he is no longer in power, I fail to see how the rebels acted any better than Gaddafi himself.

WeX Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Note to the mods, I created my post as a new thread by accident as the title of this one is incorrect and didn't show up in the search. "Gaddafi" is spelt with one "F" not two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel disappointed that he isn't around to give information, but I do understand his death. Earlier in the conflict 2 of his sons were captured only to be freed again shortly afterwards. Gaddafi being captured would have been a focus for forces intent on freeing him. Didn't something like that happen with one of the top Taliban leaders in Afghanistan?

Frank Sidney Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 He'd have been better taken prisoner. Perhaps he would have been able to share a cell with Bin Laden, who's not dead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
