    Gaddafi Dead!

    Opps

    The Colonel, who invented the bunga bunga, is not dead. He's alive in all of our hearts and will be celebrated at my local swingers club. Next is Berlusconi.
    <Insert idea here> will never be adopted because the politicians are in the pockets of the banks!

        One slippery self serving war criminal down, one to go.

          Sounds, at the moment, as if he was captured alive, dragged around the streets for a bit and then shot.

            Certainly looks like it. Anyone else think it's a little sick and voyeuristic of the major agencies touting photos of his dead body? Is this now socially acceptable?

            Or am I just an old fashioned bed-wetter?

              I'm probably the only one, but it's sounds to me like the new lot in Libya could be just as barbaric as the old lot.

              I wonder if they're as anti al Quaida as Gadaffi was?

                Its difficult, the picture of him dead will mean that many people will truly believe him dead and the chance of fanatics denying it is less.

                However its not particularly nice and I prefer they were nicer.
                Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                  No, you are not alone.

                  However, major agencies will freely tout images of the dead as long as they are not of their own people.

                  e.g Were any images of people killed by the IRA shown or of UK soldiers killed in Afghanistan or Iraq? No.

                  Compare that with the freely shown images of, for example, Iraqi's killed in the Gulf War.
