Was this Gaddafi's grisly end? Picture claimed to be Libyan dictator after he was killed when rebels finally captured his last stronghold

Slumped against the bloodied legs of a revolutionary fighter, this is the picture which Libyan rebels say confirms that deposed leader Muammar Gaddafi has been killed.

The former Libyan dictator was reportedly found cowering in a hole in the ground at the centre of Sirte, after rebels moved through the seaside town during their final assault.

Fighter Mohammed Al Bibi told reporters that the toppled tyrant had pleaded 'Don't shoot, don't shoot' as he attempted to surrender.

There were multiple reports in the Arab press that he died after suffering wounds to the legs.

“That’s one less dictator for Obama to bow to.”

Can you imagine the hell Pres. Bush would have heard if he had gone around the world killing their ‘leaders’?!

I wonder if these countries now think it’s okay to do the same to our so-called leader?! I wouldn’t want to be Obama about now (especially while congrautlating himself in the Rose Garden and taking credit for it)!

You will notice the SILENCE from lefties who critcized Pres. Bush for putting TERRORISTS in prison but have no problem KILLING their leaders.

Libya’s bloody victory over Gaddafi is just the beginning

Deep tribalism and a lack of leadership will plague a country that is nation-building from scratch

It appears that Gaddafi was taken alive and either he fought to the last – thus fulfilling the promise he voiced in his last broadcast speech – or summary revenge was taken. Whatever the true story, pictures of his final struggle will bolster those who remain Gaddafi loyalists – and make no mistake, there are many who will lament his demise, either out of self-interest or tribal loyalty.

The removal of Gaddafi has been hard-earned through the bravery, persistence and bloodshed of those who dared fight him. Now the real battle begins: to establish a unified government over a united country. It will not be easy.

“So how come we can get proof of the deaths of Saddam Hussein, his sons, Kaddaffi, and many other dictators, but not Osama bin Laden? Does everyone realize we have NO proof of bin Laden’s death, only the Obama administration’s word for it?”

Yes, that never sat right with me either.

They should have let the women shave their heads... I mean, let women be the barbers. Probably had to use men because there wouldn’t have been much left of them if the women had had their way.

I can't see the down side of the Bedou and Arabs killing each other for the next thousand years.

However, both of them are going to blame us, and build mosques dedicated to the Muslim Martyr Quaddafi, and another 747 will explode over Scotland.

...please! The kenyan idiot did nothing with the intention to do anything more than up his poll numbers. He doesn’t do “good things”. He does things to advance his Marxist agenda. I wouldn’t even give him credit for being a “man”.

That sounds like murder to me. If it was Gaddafi, he should've been tried in a court of law like Saddam.

No doubt Mr. Nobel Peace Prize will be spiking the ball and taking the credit.

The Fraud in Chief has to toe a thin line when taking credit for this one.

Big Media is reporting Q/K was captured alive and died of wounds inflicted afterward.

A Republican president would already have to be defending himself.

How will Big Media idolize Hussein on THIS “gutsy decision”?

“Isn’t it great how Obama ignored the law, and the Constitution, lied to the American people blatantly about a “No Fly Zone”, and killed thousands of civilians to remove this murdering tyrant?”

Not just civilians, but BLACKS. Reports (briefly) came out that Hussein’s rebel friends were shooting blacks on sight.

Not to worry, though.

The ends justify the means when one is a Democrat.
