'Gaddafi's Youngest Son Killed By Nato'
Sky News ^ | August 5th 2011

Posted on 08/05/2011 2:06:12 AM PDT by Cardhu

Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's youngest son has been killed by Nato strikes in Libya, according to reports.

Rebel forces have said the Libyan leader's son Khamis was among more than 30 people dead following an air strike on an operation centre in the western town of Zlitan.

Spokesman for revolutionary militia groups Mohammed Zawawi told AFP that spies operating among Gaddafi's ranks had confirmed the death.

"Overnight there was an aircraft attack by Nato on the Gaddafi operations room in Zlitan and there are around 32 Gaddafi troops killed - one of them is Khamis," he said.

It is the second time this year that there have been claims Khamis has died.

In March, reports the 28-year-old leader of the feared Khamis Brigade was killed when a pilot crashed his jet into a compound in Tripoli were quickly declared as rumours.

But there has been no comment from the government or Nato in regards to the latest claims.

In WWII,it was the American forces who took Rome,the British forces who took Caen and the French forces who took Paris—THEN they were referred to as “Allies.”

Why? Because each nation was PROUD and not ASHAMED of their victories.

In the beginning of the war on Terror,nationalities of troops engaged in combat were reported first.
But ever since Obama,it's the generic “NATO” that is doing the fighting and you have to dig real deep to find out the countries of origin as to individual units.

The international Leftist MSM is so in the tank for Obama,that even though Libya is HIS war,you would think he has nothing to do with it.

Gawd what a corrupt SOB.

Imagine our reaction if this was done here; maybe not with this “president”, but with just about any other one.

Yes, it’s usually necessary to kill children to enforce a no-fly zone. Those little bastards keep trying to hang glide. Some even fly kites.

I can see Mummar and Saddam sitting in hell together, “So, they got all your sons too?”

I’d rather see the muzzy extremists disguised as rebels get some much needed nato/obama bombs dropped on them. Those animals are
quite adept at killing each other without our help so we need to butt out and focus on real jobs here at home.

I’m hoping to see a full scale battle royal cage match between Suni and Shia moose limb sects.
Saudi Arabia and Iran duke it out on a grand scale.
For all to see on cable t.v.

It is the second time this year that there have been claims Khamis has died.

Twice dead, twice alive, and the confusion reigns supreme, and another dead maybe is another rumor. Rumor and War, War and Rumor. Fog is sometimes thick other times thin, yet water is still wet, maybe? Sometimes there is much unknown. One must venture this is a confirmed unknown, or unknown confirmed? Still confussed?

DNCBS would have done an interview with Mr President Gadaffy and Michael Mooron would have a documentary by now. Hypocrites.

Pray for America

I guess it's only illegal to assassinate the head of a country but his relatives are fair game but only by dropping bombs in a non-war.

Paging Mr. Orwell... we've always been at non-war with...

I enjoy skimming through the “tweets” over on Al Gezeera. Some pure fiction/propaganda. Others plausible but unconfirmed. One interesting tweet:Ghadaffi is using 400 camels to resupply his fighters in Brega. Another one is that in Zlitan, a deadly feud has erupted between Ghadaffi forces and his hired mercenaries. Gunfire heard. Intense at times. Is it true? Fog of war...coupled with very poor reporting.

Alas, it was all for nought. Little Khamis still breathes. I’m sure they’re grinding their teeth over it in the war room.

In regards to your tag line.
Years ago I worked as an electrician when working my way through college.
We did the wiring for a new air conditioner at a near by church then sent the paster the bill.
It was returned witha note thanking us for our, “contribution”.
We could get a long way out of our debt is we just taxed religions the way we usually do business, cept G.E. of course.
