He still deserved a couple of hymns and a dignified exit ceremony.

Libya's former leader Moamer Gaddafi was first captured alive, but was later murdered by shootings of participants of operation, the Aljazeera reported.
His dead body was brought to the city of Misrata.
Former Libya's Defense Minister Abu-Bakr Yunis Jabr was also killed during the air strikes. Mass demonstrations demanding for the ouster of Qaddafi, who has been ruling the country for more than 40 years, started in Libya in mid-February and subsequently grew into armed confrontation between the government forces and the rebels.
On August 23, 2011, Gaddafi lost control of Tripoli, and effective control of Libya with the rebels' capture of the Bab al-Azizia compound.
NTC forces now control most of Libyan territory, including the capital Tripoli. They have been trying to take several cities controlled by pro-Gaddafi troops, including Bani Walid and Sirte.
Killing a Gaddafi is no more murder than shooting a rabid dog.
Must have been killed trying to escape.
Nothing but a bunch of soulless animals on both sides over there. No hope for them other than more violence and bloodshed. It’s all that Islam calls them to live for, which pleases Allah.
Nobody can take his place as a rallying point.
That video represents my impression of Islam. Is that wrong? lol
bttt
“Killing a Gaddafi is no more murder than shooting a rabid dog.”
While I agree, I ask, YET AGAIN, where is all that fake outrage from the left we saw under Bush?
Where is Jesse Jackson, who said hanging Saddam was a Lynching? Or the parade of Leftist .orgs like the Workers World commies who called that MURDER, now?
The language of that resolution has been so tortured that it is much like what the meaning of "is" is. Not that we are worried about it, but one day the Russians and Chinese will pay us back for taking that resolution and turning it into an authorization for NATO/US to become the Al Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood air force.
Given a choice, I'd go with the West...every time.
How much less?
I definitely won’t shed a tear for this evil man. However, I fear that what government will follow him will be worse than he was.
Great way to start a new democracy
allu akhbar!
No, but he was just a little nobody when he got a few people to follow him and take over, and the story of about fifty people in Tripoli fighting the ragtags and then melting away was mostly not reported by the media a few days ago.
Animals, indeed. I would HATE to live in the M.E.

“So .... he got the Mussolini treatment”
A somewhat ironic statement, given rumors of Qaddafi’s real parentage
