Gaddafi Amazonian Guard: 'Entourage of Deadly Virgins'

I did not know this and thought it was very interesting.

The Amazonian Guard is an elite group of 30-40 (reports differ) allegedly virgin women who are tasked with protecting the leader of Libya, Muammar al-Gaddafi.[1]

Candidates for the Amazonian Guard undergo extensive firearms and martial arts training at a special academy and must be hand picked by Gaddafi himself. Members of this elite group are allowed privileges not deemed acceptable in the Muslim world, such as dressing in Western-style fatigues and wearing makeup, or displaying Western hair styles and high heels.

The existence of this elite group has created controversy as it challenges the role of women in the Muslim world.

From you YouTube description:

Narrator: When the leader sleeps, the soldier stays awake, and it's the women who do the fighting. Gaddafi trusts his security to ladies only. The head of the Libyan Jamahiriya has a total of 300-400 girls on his security detail. According to the official story, all of them are virgins.

Selection is done by Gaddafi himself. This whim has an explanation for it: In ancient times, they believed that the best guards were either virgins or lesbians, the underlying belief being that they could sense threats, the so-called wind of death. The girls were even sterilized to make them more aggressive toward men.

There can be different views on these stories, but it was the girls with Kalashnikovs who saved Gaddafis life several times. During the assassination, they shielded him from gunfire and grenades. One died, two others were wounded. The bodyguards are with Gaddafi day and night. Each of them can handle several strong men. According to some sources, most of the girls are Cuban.

So his personal guard is made up of women who are supposedly virgins. Some even claim that there are 40 with him at all times. Is this so when he dies a 'martyr' he takes his 40 hand picked virgins with him?

Crazyness!

I read this in the paper the other day and thought,yeah right Gadaffi,of course they are virgins.
Probably until just after he "meets" them for the first time (IMO).


Oh the perks of being a murderous dictator..

OMG it's like a real life Tarantino movie.
