Old Fuzzhead is dead: Rebel fighter's words to Gaddafi's daughter when she phoned her father
Daily Mail U.K. ^ | October 23, 2011 | Barbara Jones

Colonel Gaddafi's daughter phoned her father after learning of his capture – only for the call to be answered by a rebel who told her: 'Old Fuzzhead is dead'. The way the news was broken to Aisha Gaddafi, 34, has dismayed many officials in the ruling National Transitional Council (NTC).

The revelation came amid international demands for an investigation into how the deposed Libyan leader died. NTC sources say he was shot by a 17-year-old with the dictator's own gold-plated revolver.

'Aisha called her father's satellite phone and one of the revolutionaries who had captured him answered her,' said a commander. 'He said, "It's over. Abu Shafshufa died."' Abu Shafshufa is Gaddafi's nickname in Arabic, meaning Old Fuzzhead. 'It's shameful. It is his daughter,' added the commander.

Aisha, her mother and two of her brothers fled to Algeria after the fall of Tripoli in August.

The new leader of Libya announced that from now on sharia will be the law of the land, all non-sharia or non-islamic laws will be null and void.

So the mob shot the old leader and was rude- not a big surprise.

So now the world is suposed to be outraged because his daughter was told in a rough way that he was dead?

Told by a member of the mob that killed him?

What does anyone think we are dealing with here? A rabble of gentlemen? They were a mob. A killing mob.

Hillary found it funny. We came we saw , He died. That is outrageous. not that he was killed by a mob, that was expected. I can feel some sympathy for his daughter, IF, she felt sympathy for those her father killed or had killed, but I doubt she did.I doubt she shed a tear at the death of those Ghaddafy was responsible for killing.

I don’t think the guy that answered the phone will get a job with Hallmark Cards any time soon.

I don't remember international calls for an investigation when Ceausescu was whacked by angry Romanians.

There seems to be a lot of handwringing over this particular dirtbag and his repulsive family.

Interesting.

It was indeed gold plated but a Browning Hi-Power, not a revolver.

Interestingly I have seen this mistake in so many British movies, especially old ones that I wonder it that is considered correct in Britain. Probably not but it really is common.

This is mob-ocracy in action, a blueprint for "CHANGE"... did we not see Hillary Clinton laugh and say, "we came, we saw, he's dead, hahahaha". She cheered, even mocked of Gadaffi's demise, but now that the deed is done, "we must investigate"... what the hell? The reason you incite the mob is to do your dirty work, right? RIGHT?!!

Looked like an autoloader to me, not a revolver, gold plated or whatever!

The new guy better watch his back.

Obama will be looking for a new gig after Jan 2013, and if he can’t become prez of Kenya, Libya might be his next best shot.

I’m glad I don’t live in a country where our military shoots prisoners and then drags the bodies around as trophies. That being said, Gaddafi reaped the harvest he spent 42 years sowing.

Well, the problem, you see, is that Ghaddafi wasn’t given the courtesy of a pro forma show trial before he was executed. Do lend a semblance of legality and civility to it all. Ceausecu and Saddam Hussein at least got that!

Those doing the handwringing couldn't care less about old Daffy, his daughter, his family or his pet goldfish.

They sense a chance to smear the U.S. for being covert partners in assassination and savagery with the death of the Libyan head of state, whether it's true or not.

Obama asked for this with his big mouth and purse.....backing the rebels with evil oratory, military assistance and money.

Faux moral indignation will be used as a weapon against our country by those in the world who hate us (and Israel)....which is the majority in the U.N and World Court....that's for sure.

Despite the honor of being shot with a gold plated pistol I’d just as soon skip it.

“Killed by his own gold plated revolver” /s

I’ve seen a few revolvers in my day, pretty sure that is not a revolver.
The media can’t get anything correct!
