When in doubt, look for him in Pakistan.

The desert is big out there. He is probably selling gasolineunder a shaded stand on the borderline road in Tunesia like every other Libyian..

Ah, the coward... leaves his people, leaves his sons, and ruins the nation and runs. Hope they catch him.

I would like to be hopeful that, if Ghadafi goes, and it's still too early to depend on that, whoever replaces him will be better for the country as a whole. Right now, though, I see no dependable option, just a lot of people happy to have removed the current structure. Who will unite the country, I wonder, and how will they deal with the many groups who want a piece of the pie? Can anyone do it without resorting to the same tactics Ghadafi used?

Regime is not on the brink. Tripolli is on the brink of a civil war caused by NATOs quest for fuel security. How can the combined leaders of America and Europe possiblily beat a seasoned, smart and strong leader like Gaddafi??? They can't even beat a load of illiterate tribes in Afganistan. Libya is a modern North African country thanks to Gaddafi using oil wealth not for himself, but to genuinely build a great infrastructure and social system for his people. His revenge will be felt in the cities of Europe that bombed the women and children and encouraged the bloodbath of Libyan against Libyan.

In February, Gaddafi said he would die as a martyr. Yeah... right... Eventually, he will and has already fled with country's gold and cash.

He ran and is in hiding like his troops melted into the crowd much like the iraqi army did, thing with these ahrabs is they tough when they have the knife and they out number you, once they on the back foot they have no honor or balls. Dont want to stand and face the consequences so they take off the uniform and change sides.

Wouldn't you take off your uniform if the worlds largest military was blowing your children to little pieces. "ahrabs" whoever they may be, have more balls and honour than NATO soldiers. How many NATO soldiers are suicide bombers? Zero, just a bunch of cowards.

I have no information about "Ahrabs," but there is nothing honorable about suicide bombers, in my opinion. I think the killing of those who are defenseless, especially children, is not something to be proud of, no matter who does it, and no matter what story they have been told about how there are no innocents. Destroying things is easy. Building things is difficult.

What keeps you from leaving the cubicle of your McJob and going to fight against NATO, asagao?

Nobody really knows what happening there except the "good" guys hammer the "bad" one to support muslim mob. Hypocrisy dooms the World.

The farther the more news outlets tend to become not the honorable news sources but more like propaganda centers though it's started not now...

Asagao

nothing honorable in being a suicide bomber but maybe you meant to type horrible instead of honorable.

This fight is mainly the fight of the Libyan people, not NATO. Besides, there's more honor in proudly wearing your uniform and differentiate yourself from civilians, instead of cowardly hiding among innocent civilians to use as your shield. Represent!
