Well, when his own military nails him, he can let go of 5.6 liters — after that, I guess he will have one or two drops to make his dramatic exit and fulfill his self-defined destiny.

Anyone want to lay odds?

Ahole has been calling in foreign troops to kill his own people. I give him two days before he spontaneously combusts.

I hope somebody puts the “last stand” on youtube. Assuming he actually does stay it would be hilarious watching him being shot to death with benny hill dubbed over.

Gaddafi has to be one of the ugliest creatures.....ever. He’ll scare Hitler and Stalin when he meets up with them.

I suspect he will probably survive. It would take a military coup to remove him and he has all ready eliminated anybody that may have been ruthless enough to get the job done. I also suspect he will also show the other struggling dictators how to survive..

Quadaffi, Gaddaffi what ever the heck is his name is. He looks like a mummy. Imagine if he had nukes. Imagine if and when all those crazy Arabs and Muslims had nukes.

If that pig has more blood in him than Tutankhamen's mummy I will be amazed.

There are people waiting to do the squeezing necessary.

Not overly certain that 'good guys' even exist in the current scenario. May well be a 'lesser of two evils' thing, in the end...

There are no good guys. Let em sort it out themselves and then deal with the survivors.

In Libya, like most of Africa it's a tribe vs tribe maze for the most part. Strongmen will always be in control.

The strongest ribe wins.

It seems obvious to me with the whole middle east falling apart the rise of the next Caliphate is coming.

It is a requirement of Islam to live under a theocracy ruled by one man.

That is quite an article. I’m getting the feeling Mooamar and his mercenaries will very soon be decorating the landscape with their entrails.
