Archive footage of Qadaffi

2011-03-23

[Arab News] Libyan television was showing archive footage of Qadaffy being greeted by cheering crowds waving his portrait. The images were set to stirring patriotic music. Qadaffy himself has not been since in public since the air strikes began at the weekend.
Afraid of the eye in the sky...
State television was also broadcasting old footage of military parades, including pictures of elite troops marching in formation wearing balaclavas and gas masks.

Several sites in Tripoli had been subject to new attacks by what it called the "crusader enemy," state television said.
... and if you can't believe state television who can you believe?
"These attacks are not going to scare the Libyan people."

The United States and its allies have run into some criticism for the intensity of the firepower unleashed on Libya, including more than 110 Tomahawk missiles on Saturday. The next step is to patrol the skies to enforce the no-fly zone.

Security analysts say it is unclear what will happen if the Libyan leader digs in, especially since Western powers have made clear they would be unwilling to see Libya partitioned between a rebel-held east and Qadaffy-controlled west.

#1 Look, we want a port and we want the Oil. The Libyan civilians are just an excuse. He said out loud that he will cause us no end of grief as long as he is left alive. He has threatened everybody with his usual dire-est the way Arabs do even when they cant.

Rivers of blood,blah blah blah. Nobody wants him and he hasnt got anyplace to go. He's got an entourage around him who are "reaching out"...Yeah? He cant take BenGhazi, we can probably organize someone to take charge there and arm them with enough stuff to retake the local Oil facilities.
Now, dont tell me everybody in the US govt and half of the queers in EUroweenie cant figure out that we have to Kill this Arab monkey.

His entourage is right there, all we need is to know where KaDaffy will BE tonite for beddy-bye. We dont need his butler to do the deed, or his cousin or the Chef and the security squad on the night shift. All we need is his location at 9:00PM. There is good money in it for any al-Goombah who can give us that little piece of the franchise. So WHO in his entourage wants to make a few million? Call this number on your cellphone.

Get it right or we dont pay you a dime. But if you deliver THEN we get you the Ferrari and the suitcase full of Cash. You can move to France and Fifi will keep licking your face.

Obama wont do that? He wont make that happen? And Hillary? She has squeamish qualms? The Military wants to thunder through the skys and mind its own business saluting the bookends all day? The French cant seem to find their way clear from the chilled potato soup and the Pom d'frits ?

There must be someone on the payroll who can take the call and hold up the bag of cash on this?

What, we have here is a government with not a single soul who can smile and shove the knife in past the handle? Come on , Priscilla, get off those roller skates.

Tell the world you "did it for the children." You want the Oil?
Well, what DID you want? You either get rid of this Moslem monkey or go wank, Bosco.
