Toplowtech posted:He's speaking far too much and isn't saying nearly enough. Also "OIL". Was thinking more his poses and expressions without "ums". He looks like a CEO who practiced a bad news speech for weeks, not a guy rambling tales of African illegal immigrants who broke out of jail to drunkenly drive tanks around oil fields.

Do you think he'll finish that speech and say to his aides "hey, I thought that went pretty well, don't you?"

Gaddafi's son pulls a Palin. This will surely quell the peoples uprising! And it was only 84 citizens killed NOT over 200!!

Haha, now he's saying that William Hague's phone call to him implied that Britain would occupy Libya.

It was awfully considerate of Britain to call before hand to let them know they're planning on invading and taking their oil. Wow, even us Canadians are plotting their overthrow now.

I guess I would be rambling too if my father fled the country and I had just murdered my brother. This is like autocratic performance art. Stream of consciousness fear mongering about drug use, imperialism, visas, and civil war.

"He's not a traditional president" I agree with that.

"Muammar al-Qaddaffi is not a traditional, classic president." Biggest understatement of the decade. EDIT: is he SERIOUSLY claiming that the African mercenaries are in the protestors employ?

It seems that he can stop talking. Everytime I think he stops talking he thinks of something else to talk. This is very strange

Nenonen posted:Gaddafi actually supported the Southern Sudanese rebels in the 1980's during Nimeiry's leadership because Nimeiry supported the Israeli-Egyptian peace. Libya was basically being a dick to anyone who didn't agree with Gaddafi's ideals of Arab and Muslim unity, even if this meant funding Christian rebels. Yea, I was talking about his relations with the current regime in Sudan. Speaking of politics, Gaddafi poses as a pan-african leader in Africa, while in Europe he declares himself as the "defender of white and christian europe" against the "hordes of African savage immigrants" and he got a shitload of money from EU and especially Italy to prevent immigration.

"How does it feel when some people just leave the country open and vurnerable to drugs and smugglers?" Do you know how it makes me feel Libya? DO YOU KNOW HOW IT MAKES ME FEEL? Al Jazeera is laughing at us Libya, don't break up with me like this! LIBYA YOU'RE BREAKING MY HEART edit: they just seriously asked someone what they think of his speech. This is the funniest thing I've seen in a while.

Remember the rambling speech Qaddafi gave to the U.N. in 2009 or 10 where he said a lot of reasonable things about U.S imperialism and then also blamed the Israelis for H1N1 or something crazy like that?

Speech over, and Al Jazeera immediately boils it down to, "Well, the protestors do have tanks, and Qaddaffi claims that the revolt's due to drugs and separatists."

Do I have this right? He's claiming that the Chadian mercenaries are actually illegal immigrants with guns who came to Libya on their own to cause chaos? And they must unite against them!

"The Libyans who live in Europe and USA, their children go to school and they want you to fight. They are comfortable. They then want to come and rule us and Libya. They want us to kill each other then come, like in Iraq."

With all the different people and organizations he blamed (foreign mercenaries, separatist tribes, islamists wanting to form emirates, thugs on drugs, young people from the internet, every other nation, al-jazeera etc.) it has to be the most complicated plot ever thought of.
