so we have killed dictator no 1 in Africa. yaay. this victory has left a bitter taste in my mouth and the hollow feeling that we could have carried this out in a different way. first some things Libyans enjoyed under his rule
1. Electricity & water free for residential units
2. 1 liter of petrol 0.08 EURO
3. NO TAX , DEBT FREE
4. students studying abroad receive a salary of 1627 Euro
5. each one of those students gets salary till he finds a job
6. each Libyan family gets 300 Euro monthly as long as they are registered
7. when a Libyan gets married, he receives a land to help him out approx. 150 Sq.M
And apparently this dictator helped alot of African countries into freedom. true he did take over their affairs after a while and true he was a despicable man who rather enjoyed killing people but the manner of his death was appaling. i watched a you tube clip and i couldnt help but think that this was nothing to celebrate about. his death was a win yes but the method was shameful. kill him, torture him yes but dont kill him like a dog(i wouldnt do that to my own dog). the guy was an egotistical maniac(the self given title king of kings in africa was proof enough) still doesnt mean we do that to all egoistics we know(and i know plenty!). i just think they should have gone differently with this or atleast not show a live footage of that horror. no matter what a person did, killing them does not bring back the dead or correct the injustices he did.but i sincerely hope that the Libyans can now heal as they have gotten rid of their biggest headache.
