Ummm...

Please refrain from PERSONAL ATTACKS and keep this thread ON TOPIC!!
We don't want to moderate your post or ban you, but we might have to if you can't follow the forum rules!

The irony is palpable.

If you're going to cry about stalking, you should probably not stalk people.

You and Cannuck should put your heads together. Maybe the two of you could formulate a reasoned thought together.

Gaddafi gave up his WMD's and was starting dialogue with the United States so what changed? The biggest question right now is what happened to those stinger missiles the Rebels were using?

That's hilarious.

Kaddafy was one of the prominent influences in the rise in oil prices in the early 70's. OPEC had been restrained in pricing but it was he who broke ranks and forced prices up which prompted others in OPEC to follow suit. So in some ways he's the father of high oil costs.

Please debate the issues and refrain from insults and name calling. If someone's post is idiotic, you needn't call them an idiot. You wise rebuttal in contrast to an idiotic post should be more than sufficient.

Hmmmmmm.......


If Venezuelans want to get rid of Chavez, they can vote for someone else in the next election.
Oh come on. Do you need diagrams?? , photos?? You saw the video and photo. ASSASSINATIONS are atrocious , regardless of who does them.

Question: to all here: Why are such behaviors (assassinations ) conducted by other nations illegal, horrifying and atrocious and yet ok for some , when done by the "west". Atrocious behaviors / acts are atrocious , regardless of who commits them.

Seems that some have a serious problem with their own ethical and moral compass. The issue seems to be that they can "justify" just about any atrocity to themselves as they rationalize their views. People have done this since humans walked up right. We have seen it in Germany, Russia and other places where so many horrors took place.

No one is defending Gadhafi . But one MUST defend the law and cvilized conduct or we are no better than those we assassinate./slaughter.
He who lives by the sword, dies by the sword. Ghadaffi was responsible for thousands of deaths. He also oversaw torture and summary execution.
I am confused. How does one become a brutal dictator while at the same time, provide free medical, education and water for their subjects? Something does not add up here. Why did the US renew diplomatic relations in 2006 and then decide to attack? If Canada and other foreign countries (re: NATO) were running their oil program, why did they suddenly decide to attack? In any rebelion I have ever heard of, the government did everything it could to squash the rebelion, but when Gaddafi reacted to the violence with violence, he was a monster. Did not the British act in exactly the same way when Americans revolted? Were they monsters too? And if so, why do we still have friendly terms? This does not add up at all.

I also find it very disheartening to see such glee over the slaughter of another human being. It makes me wonder just who are the monsters.
He was hated while he supported western enemies and redeemed when he stopped, opened the country up to Western oil companies and offered a torture for hire service to leaders who can't use torture on their own soil for legal/political reasons. That's why all these Western leaders smiles and shook Ghadaffi's hand. Few people will miss this tyrant and the reaction for many people will be similar to the munchkin's reaction to the death of the Wicked Witch of the East. (Ding Dong the Wicked Witch is Dead).

Didn't some polls say he had the support of about 90% of the 'common people'. If he was allowing the US to torture people there it was most likely Americans who were doing the actual torture. As far as hie lifestyle and those of the 'leaders' what Nation does suffer from the same type of corruption, the leaders of companies and politics and the military had a lifestyle that would be envious of the common person, even when Russia went bankrupt the upper ones didn't endure any financial hardships.

If he came to power in 1969 and thingsa improved in the 1970's then who was running the place before then and were they 'sub-servant' to the US in the same way the Shaw of Iran was from 1963-1978? That would make him a rebel who won against the US and everybody knows the US never likes to lose something they consider as being theirs, ask Cuba and Iran and Venezuela.

(in part)
In April 1955, oil exploration started in the kingdom with its first oil fields being discovered in 1959. The first exports began in 1963 with the discovery of oil helping to transform the Libyan economy, although imposing a resource curse on Libya. Although oil drastically improved Libya's finances, popular resentment grew as wealth was increasingly concentrated in the hands of the elite.
On 25 April 1963, the federal system of government was abolished and in line with this the name of the country was changed to the Kingdom of Libya to reflect the constitutional changes.
As was the case with other African nations following independence, the remaining Italian settlers in Libya held many of the best jobs, owned the best farmland and ran the most successful businesses.
The monarchy came to an end on 1 September 1969 when a group of military officers led by Muammar al-Gaddafi staged a coup d’état against King Idris while he was in Turkey for medical treatment. The revolutionaries arrested the army chief of staff and the head of security in the kingdom. After hearing about the coup, King Idris dismissed it as "unimportant" while it was initially reported (falsely) that the Crown Prince Hasan as-Senussi had announced his support for the new regime.

Should be. But it hasn't worked with you yet.

Only if he doesn't change the laws to become dear leader for life.

Mhz,

I am unaware of Libya ever conducting a Gaddafi opinion poll. An attempt to do so would probably lead to treason charges and the death penalty.

Few people liked Gaddafi. 40+ years of abduction, torture, violence tends to create many enemies. Gaddafi is probably responsible for tens of thousands or perhaps more than a hundred thousand senseless deaths. In perspective Gaddafi was a ruthless killer on about the same scale as Ronald Reagan
http://www.hrw.org/reports/1989/WR89/Nicaragu.htm

and much less than George W. Bush...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Iraq_War

and both of whom are incredibly still much beloved even by millions of people.

I support bringing war criminals and terrorists to justice!

Gaddafi should have been kept alive to stand trial. Hopefully the Libyan people will preserve and analyze all Qaddafi's records....

Kind of hard to do when his hand picked supreme court denies the best candidates the ability to oppose him along with Chavez having them arrested.

By your standards then it seems that quite a few Canadians have to be brought to justice... by YOUR standards.

Perhaps Canadian Lt. General Bouchard shouldn't have bombed the convoy in front of an armed mob then. Once he gave the word, NATO warplanes hit the convoy carrying Gaddafi and sealed his fate for all eternity.

Whole lot of probables, got anything other than your 'opinion' as it means nothing.
The Shaw of Iran wasn't loved by the people now was he? Don't you remember the rally's that showed the vast majority supported him, even the rebels had to get outside support or they would have cratered. Why no intervention in Egypt, a dictator for the same length of time, the proposed solution was to promote the 2nd in command, didn't he look after the prisons that tortured peole for the US?

Interesting that this lowest form of inhumanity is supported by so many on here. Would bet that they watch this over and over and get vicarious /sick pleasure at the kill. What a blood thirsty gang of misfits to align oneself with.

shameful.

****

goober; answer is simple: judged by 12. Sadly too many LOVE the idea of carried by six. as if that is some novel idea that does not represent barbarism at its worst.

those that support what happened.........know what category you belong in........and that is the same as this MURDERER in cold blood and joy ful enough to make U tube. IF they encourage this kind of "justice" for an ex leader (bad as he was ) ......there is no limit as to who is next . All they have to do is target one and off they go like a pack of salivating rabid wolves.

by condoning this.........one is condoning this kind of "justice." and that means all legal, ethical and moral compasses have gone crazy .

On your planet. Not mine - Carried by 6 or judged by 12 - Make a choice.

sad to find out that your planet is still governed by barbaric principles. In My world.......the law prevails, ethical standards and humanitarian principles are imperative.
