Just fled? Yasser Arafat died at least 8 times in the media that I can recall.
Somebody ought to tell Daffy to get his game up a notch.
So how long until we see credit being given to Premier Hussein for driving Kadaffy out of Libya??
He’s the guy who killed Osama after all...
The commie libs in the state run MSM would give anything for a little good news. It appears they’re so desperate that they’ll even settle for a rumor right now.
According to US Premier Hussein, he doesn’t get to claim credit, the NATO alliance does. After all we weren’t really fight it...we were just incidental to the whole thing. (snort)
One of Twitter feeds reporting that too Pan
Gaddafi does not want to be dragged into an international court or back to Libya for a Mubarek styled trial. I do not believe he is “fleeing” so much as he has been negotiating an imminent departure that will provide him immunity. He is probably also negotiating to have the sheckels he stole unfrozen as part of the deal.He can live quite well with his Ukrainian amazon nurses in Tunisia or Morrocco.
Credible Western intelligence reports say that Muammar Gaddafi has fled Libya and is on his way to exile in Venezuela, according to William Hague, the foreign secretary.
The Duck is gone??? The the MB now takes over!
Honestly I don’t even care. I just want us to have nothing to do with the mess.
Europe and US can't help financially because we're broke. They have no political structure except for Radical Islamist. They will be fighting a civil war for decades to come. The “Rebel” factions will soon be fighting each other for power. Within 3 months Americans will be asking whether Ole Daffy was really that bad.
Don’t believe it until you start to get e-mails from his brother-in-law to help him release funds he embezzled from the national bank.
What time is his plane supposed to land at Martha’s Vineyard?
Can’t say if the end is near, but Tripoli IS surrounded. The NYSlimes is reporting fighting in some neighborhoods.
"In the late afternoon, young men drove into the square and spun their cars around in tight circles, their screeching tires echoing off shattered buildings.
A man watching shook his head in stunned disbelief. “I swear to God,” he said, “freedom is beautiful.”
There’s some unfinished buisness for Mossad in re Libya..
The remaining 3 terrorists released by the West Germans after they hijacked a Lufthansa were received as heros by Quadafi.
Mohammed Safady, Adnan Al-Gashey, and Jamal Al-Gashey
were the three. At least one is believed to be living
in hiding in Libya along with the guy the Scots released
in the Lockerbie bombing.
Quadafi was an enthusiastic supporter of Fatah, and bankrolled terror ops against Israel for years. It would
be great to hear that the Israelis got their hands on any/all of these bad actors.
Al-Jazeera TV reporting Tripoli “completly liberated”.

I understand king obama has quietly put out word to the troops that he is offering $ 1 million for Kadaffy’s fancy tin-horn-dictator uniform, with all the gold trim and the 200 or so campaign / hero ribbons and medals, if he is captured. Seems our “commander-in-chief” wants to wear it on VETERANS DAY when he addresses the country. (It’s also going to have a hand-forged gold SEAL Trident about the size of a softball.)
Never heard of “Atlantic Wire” before this.

Reports from Tripoli say Muammar Gaddafi and two of his sons Hannibal and Mua’atsam have left Libya escaping the advance of the rebels on Tripoli tonight.
The rebels have moved in on Tripoli from the west coming from Zawiya 40 kilometers away. font>
Eyewitnesses from within Tripoli are saying that parts of Tripoli have already fallen in the hands of the rebels who are taking controls of strategic facilities. font>
Gaddafi’s prime minister Baghdadi Mahmoudi have also escaped and abandoned his position. The whereabouts of Mahmoudi are not known as yet. font>
The rebels have announced that operation “Dawn of the Sea Pride” has begun tonight, the operation of of liberating the Libyan capital Tripoli.
Momentum appears to have now firmly swung in the opposition's favour after months of near-deadlock, with the rebels holding much of the east and parts of the west.
"Gaddafi's days are numbered,'' said Jeffrey Feltman, US Assistant Secretary of State, during a visit to the de-facto rebel capital of Benghazi. "The best case scenario is for Gaddafi to step down now ... that's the best protection for civilians.''
Mustafa Abdel Jalil, an opposition leader, echoed the statement.
"The end is very near" for Gaddafi, said the chairman of the rebel National Transitional Council (NTC) on Saturday.
"We have contacts with people from the inner circle of Gaddafi," he said. "All evidence [shows] that the end is very near, with God's grace."
The territory remaining under Gaddafi's control has been shrinking dramatically in the past three weeks, with opposition fighters advancing on the capital, from the west, south and east. Major supply routes into the capital have also fallen under rebel control.
