IM_DA_DECIDER posted:There seems to be a second translator in the background. What language is being spoken here? Sometimes when you do diplomatic translations, the speech is read/recorded and played about 2-3 seconds prior so the translators can stay in tune with the actual speaker. That said, I have no idea why that voice is turned up to 11.

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.

I have to wonder how anyone could have allowed this guy to lead a country considering how batshit insane he is. I don't mean the people themselves since obviously they didn't "let" him, but how can his supporters possibly buy into his insane ramblings? I mean I imagine he's paying them a great deal but surely at least one of them must have realized that they could just shoot him and take over leading the country and have access to his wealth.

I think I understand it all now. The source of his madness, his frustration, is his inability to grow a real beard. I can relate. Sometimes it drives me a bit crazy too... Not to those extremes though. Not cool.

He mentioned repeating a poem so others could hear it, so I think BBC and AJE said gently caress it and cut it off for now.

Aw, they cut out the feed right before he got to the part where he blamed Betty Crocker for destroying the Incas in an attempt to seize control of the Libyan Pie Industry.

I would watch an hour of Ghaddafi a day if he weren't killing people wholesale. The Beck-Ghaddafi Hour would be a magical talk news program that I would watch with some devotion.

I often wonder the exact same thing. It even implies to dictatorships like Stalin, where it's very clear the even being close to him doesn't mean you're safe. It's a very strong human instinct for a clear social hierarchy and loyalty to a leader. It's fascinating really.
