After Gaddafi

Torture, already very much in operation. Sharia Law, likewise. The expulsion of the Italian and Maltese Catholics. And the genocide, both of the admittedly very scarce Copts, and of the extremely numerous black Africans.

As Peter Hitchens wrote last month:

"Somehow we’re being sold the idea that the Blair-Brown regime sucked up to Colonel Gaddafi, but our current Government kept their distance. This is false. Archives reveal that the ‘Minister for Africa’, Henry Bellingham slurped up to the Colonel (referring to him as ‘Brother Leader’) at an EU-Africa Summit in Tripoli on November 30, 2010. A few weeks before, another Minister, Alastair Burt, told the Libyan British Business Council that Libya had ‘turned a corner’ which ‘has paved the way for us to begin working together again’."

Doesn't it make you proud?

  1. A couple of months ago you were saying Gaddafi was probably going to win, with the inference that anyone who even wanted to see the back of him was a moron.

    Was Gaddafi a good man? No!

    Was it right to bomb Libya in support of a revolution to get rid of him? No!

    Will Libya be better off with al-Qa'eda in charge? No!

    Was supporting Gaddafi's removal in the best interests of Britain? Yes!

    Was Gaddafi ever going to win? Of course he wasn't!

He was a great Pan Africanist with beautiful Ideas,maybe he did not just take the right path to realize his ideas,who knows what really happened?We just see the picture painted by the media and those hunting Africans riches.If these guys love Africa,the should give their help where it is really needed.Stop the modern slavery and metal manipulation.Innocent kids and people are dying in Somalia,There are African rulers are worst than Gaddafi he at east developed his country.Take a good example of my country,I wonder what good our pesidenths done since his rule in 1982.oohhh i remember now,he changed the constitution to sit again after his mandate is over.Naeto don't see this coz we cont have oil.Wake up Africa,one love from Cameroon

    No. As we shall very soon see.

    Gaddafi gave up on being a pan-Africanist for the same reason as he had previously given up on being a pan-Arabist: like the Arabs, the Africans told him to clear off.
