https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTA_Flight_772

And the Libyan civil war had been brewing for decades. Until the Syrian revolt gave his opponents heart, Gaddafi appeared to be too strong to challenge.

Turns out that unlike Saddam, Gaddafi had feet of clay, relatively speaking. Saddam withstood a decade’s worth of air strikes and required a full-scale invasion to topple. Gaddafi? Not so much. Gaddafi was just less competent than Saddam as a dictator.
