No, these threads are like magnets to bigots and haters of all kinds, not to mention the mentally ill and sociopaths. News like this always draws them out.
We don't know who is posting here. Lots of propagandists for evil people post here all the time. Lots of people who hate freedom. People can even post from Prisons and Institutions.
Even though there is a clear video of the revolutionaries killing Gaddafi, they will invent their own version and use it for propaganda and to spread hate. That's what they do.

News here in Denmark is stating two things:
1. Gadaffi was alive when caught, but apparently wounded. A video shows him leaning against the hood of a car.
2. The same video shows a member of the transition army putting a gun to his head.
The guy was bad, obviously.... but it seems lack of trial and sentence has become the new trend, as earlier seen with Osama. If we continuously fail to act civilized, even when facing uncivilized people, we are lowering us selves.
I guess it.just shows what kind of "heroes" are commanding these battles that they keep lunging themselves into. Could we for once just see a year without fueling the military machine?

He was an awful human being who was better off dead than alive.
If you believe he was killed injustly, please say so, so everyody on this board can realize you're an idiot, and not give credit to any of your future posts.
Anybody who says "well he should've been given a trial", please get the "hell" out of here.
I give my congratulations and thanks to the rebels who made this happen.

I agree that it started as an internal issue, the citizens vs Gadaffi's regime, but once the world found out about how the citizens were being killed and treated while protesting it became an international matter... I will not deny the fact that the US has certain interests that fall in the Libya region so it makes sense that they would be concerned with what's going on over there...
Life is strange.......If nobody would of stepped in and say Gaddafi would of just killed off, or imprisoned all the protesters would that of been okay?

Not much else to say about this so I'll say it and leave:
We finally got the bastard. Another evil man now gone from the world. Good riddance, rot in hell with Saddam and Osama.
I fully agree, this is a lesson to all the dictators in the world especially those in the Arab world, and a huge lesson to American foreign policy to stop supporting these ruthless Arab dictators, because the time of change has come.

We didn't execute Gaddafi. His own people did.

Quite clearly he was captured alive. He stands and walks with some assistance. So basically at some point he was executed and dragged through the streets.

"THE CARNAGE in Syria grinds on: More than two dozen protesters were reported shot and killed by security forces on Thursday and at least 11 more on Friday; a United Nations human rights official said that the total death toll has passed 3,000." 20 oct.
>>>>> NO INTERVENTION AT ALL
"On the evening of 15 February, between 500 and 600 demonstrators protested in front of Benghazi's police headquarters after the arrest of human rights lawyer Fathi Terbil. The protest was broken up violently by police, resulting in clashes in which 38 people were injured, among them ten security personnel.[99][100] " International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo estimated that 500–700 people were killed by security forces in February 2011, before the rebels took up arms.
>>> " On 19 March 2011 a multi-state coalition began a military intervention in Libya to implement United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973, which was taken in response to events during the 2011 Libyan civil war."
But that is OK ? Just look at numbers ...
We finally got the bastard. Another evil man now gone from the world. Good riddance, rot in hell with Saddam and Osama.
