So Gaddafi is dead, apparently found hiding in a 'hole' and then beaten and shot to death by his captors. This reminds me how Mussolini met his death, hanging upside down from a lamppost. Mussolini was the man on whom the Colonel styled himself. He has met a similar fate to his hero. Touching in some way, but just a little bit barbaric. Now the comrades who have fought and suffered together will soon begin the long hard process of stabbing one another in the back to grab power, democratically, for themselves. The allies who have supported them with air power are as we speak sending their representatives to Libya to grab as much oil, reconstruction contracts and trade as they can grab before the others move in. Still, a 'dictator' has gone.
Hmmm I suppose there are a few questions that require asking, I wonder how many will be brushed under the carpet?

It will NEVER be over until the Terrorist Pan Am bombers are hanged upside down too. We are now closer to being able to ferret them out, as we go about our construction contracts.
I predict that very soon some of those heroic rebels will become millionaires.
And people will call for them to be deposed.
"a little bit" barbaric? what is "very barbaric" ? :)
I do agree with your tone of scepticism.
Max, The PFLP blew up the plane, paid by Iran, and you know why they did that. Their leader is long dead.
Soub, Indeed the cash is already on the way.
Jenny, Wait till you see real barbaric!
Hussain; Bin Laden; Gaddafi- all gone. Any news on Margaret Thatcher...?
Mike, Judging by recent pictures it may not be long.
