most Libyans were happy with Khaddafi, especially the things he did for women which was unheard of in the Middle East.

Relatively speaking, yes, I think they were. They knew the choice they had. Gaddafi or jihadi.

“most Libyans were happy with Khaddafi...”

No, they were not. They were horrified when Kaddhafi turned lose his southern mercenaries to kill Libyans. Women were crying in the streets, seeing their husbands, fathers and sons shot down by African mercenaries. That single act caused his downfall. The majority of the Libyan army deserted and joined the provincial militias. They designed a battle plan and the rest is Libyan history.
