When I lived in Gambia he used to come there to meet his alter ego the president. He would come in a cavalcade of vehicles over the desert and his tent and stuff were flown in. Jus to make a point the plane used to fly over the coastal area very low and waken eveyone up and he set up his tent on the main road which blocked traffic for a week.
His main crime however was to ask the president to close the brewery because it was unislamic.
I'm glad he is dead on that basis. I understand that all of the vehicles he had have been nicked.0 -
The life of hardsahip under Gaddafi:
1. There is no electricity bill in Libya; electricity is free for all its citizens.
2. There is no interest on loans, banks in Libya are state-owned and loans given to all its citizens at 0% interest by law. :shock:
3. Home considered a human right in Libya – Gaddafi vowed that his parents would not get a house until everyone in Libya had a home. Gaddafi’s father has died while him, his wife and his mother are still living in a tent.
4. All newlyweds in Libya receive $60,000 Dinar (US$50,000 ) by the government to buy their first apartment so to help start up the family.
5. Education and medical treatments are free in Libya. Before Gaddafi only 25% of Libyans are literate. Today the figure is 83%.
6. Should Libyans want to take up farming career, they would receive farming land, a farming house, equipments, seeds and livestock to kick- start their farms – all for free.
7. If Libyans cannot find the education or medical facilities they need in Libya, the government funds them to go abroad for it – not only free but they get US$2,300/month accommodation and car allowance.
8. In Libyan, if a Libyan buys a car, the government subsidized 50% of the price.
9. The price of petrol in Libya is $0. 14 per litre :shock:
10. Libya has no external debt and its reserves amount to US$150 billion – now frozen globally.
11. If a Libyan is unable to get employment after graduation the state would pay the average salary of the profession as if he or she is employed until employment is found.
12. A portion of Libyan oil sale is, credited directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan citizens.
13. A mother who gave birth to a child receive US $5 ,000
14. 40 loaves of bread in Libya costs $ 0.15 :shock:
15. 25% of Libyans have a university degree
16. Gaddafi carried out the world’s largest irrigation project, known as the Great Man-Made River project, to make water readily available throughout the desert country.
Other than that, he was a raving lunatic tyrant0 -
Is any of that actually true, or is it propoganda? Sounds a bit rubbish to me, though I'm aware the country was very rich.It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.

That Libyans had alot, just freedom was a different thing there. Have many friends from Uni from Libya, and while everyone hated Gaddafi for what he did, he did look out for his people on occasion, as stated in the list above.
Weird how come people are, huh?0 -

Well it could be worse, it could be like GB where we pay the Governement to screw us.
If only he hadn't carried on shooting people he didn't like, and changed to shooting people in other countries for the Americans like everybody else he'd still be there.Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

Lets hunt down David Cameron (might not take too long), shoot him through both legs and drag him onto the back of a truck whilst beating him. Maybe then the gov't will stop f'in with us. Every bloody day a new scandal comes out or a new backhanded deal is revealed. When does it stop? Does power corrupt? Or were they just tw@ts to begin with?
People shouldn't be scared of their governments, governments should be scared of their people.
Pissed off. Good and proper. Probably not the place for this rant though.0 -
Does anyone else find it slightly suspicious that our resident immortal government employee El Cap took a "new position" a few months back just before the whole conflict kicked off.
He then vanished off the face of the planet until right after Gaddafi is toast, then rocks up again.
He also had Gaddafi in the dead pool.
Now, for legal reasons, I'm not suggesting that his new role involves overthrowing dictatorships, merely making an observation.0 -
