poo poo, I can't even keep track of what he's going on about. Americans and italians? Holding a rifle to be brave? Men being mice while drunked[sic] and drugged? Your children will die!? Christ, what an rear end in a top hat.

I'm noticing long pauses where he's fiddling around with something, and a second voice. I'm guessing he's prerecorded the speech, and is using it as a cheat sheet, or something. Whatever it is that he's doing, it's just poor form.

Jamsque posted:You're over-hearing the translator's feed, which is a few seconds ahead of the broadcast so he can translate at the same time CQ is speaking. Right, thanks. Those pauses still remain, though. That, when coupled with the general incoherency of the speech, is still very bad form. This guy is not very good at giving speeches.

DarkCrawler posted:Has to be a typo, that would be insane. Well, by now, it's already been established that things over there are insane. And since there's been so many reports of there being hundreds upon hundreds of dead people found, 10 000 dead doesn't seem too far-fetched. Hopefully not, though, especially since Libya's not really a huge country, meaning that 10 000 dead is pretty much genocide.

I wonder how that liberation of Tripoli will go. Since the rebels are on the attacking side, this time, they've got less defensive options than Gaddafi's croneys, who can easily use guerrila tactics and the like. That, along with the fact that Tripoli seems to have the most and the best trainer pro-Gaddafi troops, could make things pretty messy.

Yeah, I suppose you're right. A new word is required. No reason not to do that, either. Since the word "genocide" comes from genes, ergo, ethnicity, nationality etc., eradication of political organizations, or parties, would be, umm... Partycide? No, that's dumb. Anyways, the UN guy spoke. Nothing really new, I think.

lil sartre posted:One Turkish construction worker told the BBC: "We had 70-80 people from Chad working for our company. They were cut dead with pruning shears and axes, attackers saying: 'You are providing troops for Gaddafi.' The Sudanese were also massacred. We saw it for ourselves." That could seriously cause some problems with the legitimacy of the revolutionaries. I mean, if they're a bunch of murderous assholes, they're not any better than Gaddafi, right? Although, there is the chance that it's a false-flag operation on Gaddafi's part. That could be likely, since the actual mercenaries have apparently been in comparatively good hands. I really don't know.
