Gaddafi death: Rebels answered mobile phone to Libya dictator's daugher - who screamed "rats"
2011-10-22
GADDAFI'S daughter screamed "rats" at rebels who answered her dead father's mobile, it emerged last night. Aisha Gaddafi, 34, desperately rang her father's number after hearing reports he had been captured.
"Captured? I don't believe it! Gimme dat phone!"
But she was left shocked after rebels answered the dictator's mobile phone as he lay bleeding in the hot sunshine of his home town Sirte.
[RING! RING!]
"Hello? Hello?"
"Pop? Is that you?"
"Sorry. Pop [BANG!] can't come to the phone right now... [BANG!]... Can't come to the phone ever, in fact."

TV reports in Dubai and Jordan claimed Aisha, who is in hiding in Algeria, repeatedly screamed at those on the end of the line.
So Gaddafi used an ordinary cellphone to communicate with his family in Algeria. Pretty careless.
Dubbed the Claudia Schiffer of North Africa,
... only homely...
lawyer Aisha -- who has ­reportedly given birth to a daughter in Algeria -- tended to stay out of politics but did appear at pro-Gaddafi rallies in Libya after the ­uprising began.
She was also a UN Goodwill Ambassador
...because she oozes goodwill like a marathon runner oozes sweat...
...compared to Saif that's pro'ly true...
and part of Saddam's defense team in 2004.

In a newspaper interview last year, she said: "I would say that now the future of Libya is very promising, bright and optimistic."
...which was correct, just not the way she thought...
Libya's National Transitional Council wants her extradited but Algeria has yet to recognise the new government.
