Khadafy Duck's finally reached the end of the line. Good riddance.

I'm sure he will soon be gone but in the meantime, I read of pro-Gadhafi thugs riding around Tripoli and shooting just about anyone they see. This blood bath isn't over yet.

This is the most we have heard from this guy since Regan bombed him! You catch that speech where he says "I'm a revolutionary from the tents" please i am 43 and he ain't been in a tent since I can remember. I am just wondering if he'll pull a Hitler when they close in.

Probably. He's terrified of being caught "in a hole" like his buddy Saddam was. Popping a black pill will be quicker than being held in jail, abused by all those whom he abused, tried by a kangaroo court and then hanged. Unless "his people" do a Mussolini on him--and wouldn't that be entertaining!

I remember going on alert when we bombed his palaces, waiting on the retaliation. I think I was of the few with a loaded gun. Of course it wasn't supposed to be loaded, but I figured a gun without bullets was worthless.

Personally, I think a small group of people who are supposedly loyal to him will rub him out, hoping to curry favor with the mob when they finally have him cornered. It might work, depending on how much that group has done in the past.

Aw, come on. A Ceausescu would have been so fun to watch. . .

I agree. I think he'll get one in the back of the head by a "trusted aide."

Knowing his penchant for theatrics, I'm guessin' he'll blow his palace off the map and him with it...plus whoever is stupid and/or guilty enough to join him.

I remember the pictures in the newspapers when the people strung up Mussilini by his feet and used him as a pinata. When you think about it, most of these dictators come to a bad ending.

Should have abdicated and run off to that private island (with all his ill gotten gains) while he had the chance. Other dictators take note of how it ought to be done.

They made a video of Ceausescu and his wife rushed through a quick trial and marched out to a parking lot where they were cut down by a firing squad. The officer in charge of the firing squad narrated the whole clip from start to finish.

They hung his mistress up with him.

Then there's the old joke:

"Hey, Mrs. Mussolini, wheres Benito?"

"I dunno. He might be hangin' around the gas station."

It was actually broadcast on Romanian TV. I saw the video just like Saddam Hussein's video.

He was dead at the time, shot by a partisan firing squad. The mob was just venting their hatred of the man. Too bad, it would have been a more fitting end to him.

This class of event is usually a conspiracy to scare the herd and inflate the price of a commodity such as oil or gold. Which is what happened; both cost more since the shit hit the fan. It was, in effect, another bail-out for elite investors.
