Will Moammar Gadhafi’s Death Be A Message To Other Arab Strongmen

Will Moammar Gadhafi’s death Be A Message To Other Arab Strongmen, or will tyranny continue to prevail?

According to the transitional Prime Minister, “This is the time to start a new Libya.”

However, the old Libya started 42 years ago under Moammar Gadhafi’s iron fist, as a new beginning and see where it lead the country.

In a grainy Arabic video, it shows a wounded Gadhafi being hauled onto a truck after his capture. Then it shows him dead, leaving the truck with a head wound. Is this the new beginning the transitional Prime Minister was speaking of? Because, it sounds the same to me.

Mooammar Gadhafi’s body was then taken to Misrata.

Gadhafi’s son Mutassim and his chief of intelligence, Abdullah al-Senussi, was also killed Thursday. October 20th, 2011.

Reports in from Tripoli, Libya show Libyans erupted in euphoria Thursday after their longtime Libyan dictator of 42 years was killed by revolutionary forces.

Gadhafi hometown of Sirte, was finally overrun after weeks of fighting. Troops from the country’s transitional government attacked a house in Sirte where the King of Libya was hiding and shot him when he tried to flee.

According to the Information Minister Mahmoud Shammam, the streets of Tripoli are echoing with celebratory gunfire, car horns and cheers as crowds ran or danced through the streets.

In a statement from Libya’s newest transitional prime minister, after proclaiming Gadhafi’s death, Mahmoud Jibril, stated, “This is a time to start a new Libya, with a new economy, with a new education and with a new health system…with one future.”

Gadhafi’s killing finishes an eight month revolt. It was only two months ago that the rebels from the National Transitional Council took over his Tripoli compound and drove him from power.

The mercurial former army captain, who seized power in a 1969 coup and had himself declared “King of Kings” of Africa in 2008, was the third Arab leader ousted in the “Arab Spring” upheavals that began in neighboring Tunisia in January of 2011.
