[plain talk]

I bet Gaddafi does indeed have a nuke and he will let as many rebels as possible stream in to the city and then pull the pin on it .

or he had a nuke and now Al Qaeda gets it

[dennisw]

I’m gonna miss ol Daffy. At least he was a known quantity. Libya will be taken over by the fundamentalists or Muslim brotherhood same as Egypt. Just give ‘em time.

مُعَمَّر القَذَّافِي ‎ Muʿammar al-Qaḏḏāfī

The 'a in Mu'ammar is a weird letter, a consonant, not in the English language. It's a sort of 'a' pronounced in the back of the throat.

The Q is a 'q' in Arabic, but has local pronunciations, like a soft 'q' or 'gh' The 'q' can be pronounced in the back of the throat, making it a muffled sound.

The 'd' is doubled, so it's a long 'd' of all things.

The last 'a' is a long 'ah' sound.

So, Qaddafi can be pronounced q(qh) ah dd ahhh (emphasize the dd ahh syllable) f ee.

Unless you know ayn, the weird 'a' of his 1st name, you're on your own here.

I love those Downfall parodies.

I saw the movie when it first came out, and in all seriousness, that was some impressive acting on the part of Bruno Ganz.

Is this somehow a bad thing that the country that houses a known terrorist nukes itself?

I don't think so......

I doubled that posting. Apologies. I was having trouble getting the Arabic to show up.

Combined Twitter feeds from journalists trapped in the Rixos Hotel in Tripoli. All their handlers fled, most of the staff gone. No one is sure who actually has control of the hotel.

Skynews says Obama is to make a statement later this evening.

That's sure to fix everything! Yay!

Ka Daffy out of power. Obama to take credit as soon as possible.

CNN is talking live with a reporter in Green Square. Nothing is worse than Jerry Rivers.

[eyedigress]

Maybe, but I doubt it. That bastard ran off days ago.

Yes, and the price of oil is supposed to fall even further now that the “uncertainty” is over. Yeah, sure!

Oil has already fallen more than 20%, and gas prices here in Los Angeles are down a nickel or so. The local Unocal station’s price has been stuck at $3.75/gallon for a couple of weeks now.
The real price should be more like $3.05.
