A Libyan revolutionary fighter has bragged in a leaked video that he was the man who killed Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, that country's despotic former ruler. The young man, who is pictured but has not yet been identified, said he killed the fallen dictator because he could not bear the thought of taking him alive.
'We grabbed him,' the fighter says in a video. 'I hit him in the face. Some fighters wanted to take him away and that's when I shot him, twice: in the face and in the chest.'
To prove the video's authenticity, the fighter then flaunts what appears to be Gaddafi's bloodstained shirt, before brandishing a gold ring he says he took from the despot's lifeless finger. The sensational claims come as the clearest and most graphic video yet of Gaddafi being savagely beaten in the wake of his capture has emerged online.
The below pictures shows the bloodied dictator after he has been hauled from his hiding place in Sirte, his hometown, being kicked and punched by his captors. To shouts of 'Allahu akbar', and with the sounds of assault rifle fire in the background, the men manhandle the profusely bleeding Gaddafi across a patch of wasteland and into a waiting truck.
Gadaffi was a tyrant and an animal. However, those animals who captured him were no better than he was.
ReplyDeleteGadaffi should have faced trial and the rule of law for what he probably was guilty of over his 40 year reign of terror on the Libyan people.
Those animals who killed Gadaffi should now face the rule of law for killing him.
At the end of the day, no human being has the right to take away another humans life; that includes the yank panks who shove needles into their death row victims.
