Muammar Gaddafi
Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi (Arabic: معمر محمد أبو منيار القذافي; /ˈmoʊ.əmɑːr ɡəˈdɑːfi/; 
audio ; c. 1942 – 20 October 2011), commonly known as Colonel Gaddafi, was a Libyan revolutionary and politician who governed Libya as its primary leader from 1969 to 2011. Taking power in a coup d'etat, he ruled as Revolutionary Chairman of the Libyan Arab Republic from 1969 to 1977 and then as the "Brotherly Leader" of the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011, when he was ousted in the Libyan Civil War. Initially developing his own variant of Arab nationalism and Arab socialism known as the Third International Theory, he later embraced Pan-Africanism and served as Chairperson of the African Union from 2009 to 2010.
The son of an impoverished Bedouin goat herder, Gaddafi became involved in politics while at school in Sabha, subsequently enrolling in the Royal Military Academy, Benghazi. Founding a revolutionary cell within the military, in 1969 they seized power from the absolute monarchy of King Idris in a bloodless coup. Becoming Chairman of the governing Revolutionary Command Council (RCC), Gaddafi abolished the monarchy and proclaimed the Republic. Ruling by decree, he implemented measures to remove what he viewed as foreign imperialist influence from Libya, and strengthened ties to Arab nationalist governments. Intent on pushing Libya towards "Islamic socialism", he introduced sharia as the basis for the legal system and nationalized the oil industry, using the increased revenues to bolster the military, implement social programs and fund revolutionary militants across the world. In 1973 he initiated a "Popular Revolution" with the formation of General People's Committees (GPCs), purported to be a system of direct democracy, but retained personal control over major decisions. He outlined his Third International Theory that year, publishing these ideas in The Green Book.

The Horrifying Life Story of Gaddafi
The old saying goes that “one man’s freedom fighter is another man’s terrorist” so you can understand the difference of opinion at the start of Gaddafi’s reign. But over the decades, this divisive dictator would go from a champion of the people to hiding for his life in a sewer tunnel. So how did the man who was promoted by Nelson Mandela for his powers of unification wind up dying in his own country’s civil war? History is full of leaders who proved how absolute power corrupts absolutely, yet there are differences in Gaddafi’s own life that make him stand out from other tyrants. Was he destined to become maniacal or had outside forces forced his hand? After all, he was just a man. Anyone can turn evil in the right circumstances right? So it’s time to learn How History Works to find o...

A Brief History of Muammar Gaddafi
From his extravagant robes, to his signature sunglasses, and his band of female bodyguards, Muammar Gaddafi was as eccentric as he was enigmatic. Embraced by South African President Nelson Mandela for his support for various black liberation movements both within and outside of Africa, but dubbed the ‘Mad Dog of the Middle East’ by American President Ronald Reagan for his defiantly anti-Western foreign policies, Gaddafi’s 42 year reign as Libya’s Leader would see him win the allegiance and adoration many African leaders while simultaneously becoming a universal figure of hate all around the Western world. #Libya #History #Africa Please help support our growth by subscribing to our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/NewAfrica You can also support us by making a donation here: https://paypal...

Gaddafi: The Endgame | State of Denial | Featured Documentaries
Gaddafi: The Endgame - State of Denial State of Denial is the story of the fall of the Gaddafi regime as told by the insiders, defectors and military advisors who helped to bring it about. Written and directed by Anne Reevell of Moonbeam Films, the film offers a revealing behind-the-scenes account of a revolution, a slice of history in which people took back power. "The disintegration of the Gaddafi regime in Libya surprised and confused the world - not because it happened in the first place, but because Gaddafi's government remained convinced it could prevail - despite defections, NATO airstrikes and a popular mass uprising," says Reevell. As the rebels continue to advance towards Tripoli, the Libyan authorities there are in a state of denial, convinced they can still talk to the Bri...

Jubilant Libyan fighters parade Gaddafi's body
http://www.euronews.net/ Pictures that some will find disturbing show Muammar Gaddafi's bloodsoaked body being paraded like a trophy by jubilant fighters. Those who suffered under his regime may not care, but how Libya's former dictator was killed after apparently being captured may prove controversial. There are conflicting accounts. A video filmed around the time of his capture offers some clues. In it, Gaddafi appears wounded as he is led away after being caught following NATO's air strike.

🇱🇾 The Death of Gaddafi | The Big Picture
October 20th 2011, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi is dragged from a drain pipe, tortured and killed. Libya’s self-proclaimed ‘Brother Leader, the one-time revolutionary who overthrew a king and promised a country governed by the people, met his end at the hands of a new generation of revolutionaries, Libyans seeking an end to Gaddafi’s often brutal 42-year rule. But as the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ uprisings deposed leaders to the east and west of Libya in Egypt and Tunisia, was the fall of Gaddafi inevitable? Was it always destined to be so bloody? And was it simply the unleashed rage of a beleaguered population or were external factors - and external powers – involved in the violence that ripped Libya apart? This short film uncovers the moments that led up to the protests in the east of Liby...

Gaddafi: The Rise and Fall of Libya's Dictator
Arguably one of the most important figures in global politics in the second half of the 20th century and beyond, Libya’s Colonel Muammar Gaddafi came to power in 1969 and controlled Libya for 42 years. The Libyan leader paraded on the world stage with a style so unique and unpredictable that the words "maverick" or "eccentric" scarcely did him justice. His rule saw him go from revolutionary hero to international pariah, to valued strategic partner and back to pariah again. *************************************************************************************** Sources: https://www.blackpast.org/global-african-history/al-qaddafi-muammar-1942/ https://www.britannica.com/biography/Muammar-al-Qaddafi https://journals.co.za/doi/pdf/10.10520/AJA02562804_20 - Faces of Gaddafi https://www....

"The disintegration of the Gaddafi regime in Libya surprised and confused the world - not because it happened in the first place, but because Gaddafi's government remained convinced it could prevail - despite defections, NATO airstrikes and a popular mass uprising," says Reevell.
As the rebels continue to advance towards Tripoli, the Libyan authorities there are in a state of denial, convinced they can still talk to the British government, denouncing the foreign media, burning the homes of Libyan exiles and organising anti-NATO demonstrations in London. The message they relay says there is 'no compromise on leadership,' but do they mean it or are hairline fractures beginning to emerge?
Using the oral diary of a Tripoli-based insider, as well as interviews with the UK prime minister's senior advisor on Libya and leading figures in Benghazi and Tripoli, State of Denial explores the demise of Gaddafi's powerbase and charts the twists and turns of a regime in denial.

http://www.euronews.net/ Pictures that some will find disturbing show Muammar Gaddafi's bloodsoaked body being paraded like a trophy by jubilant fighters.
Those who suffered under his regime may not care, but how Libya's former dictator was killed after apparently being captured may prove controversial.
There are conflicting accounts. A video filmed around the time of his capture offers some clues. In it, Gaddafi appears wounded as he is led away after being caught following NATO's air strike.

It started with a single voice, a young fruit vendor in a small North African market who one day shouted: "Enough!" It then became one of the largest demonstrations of people power ever seen in the Arab world. In 2011, Ray Martin has spent a fortnight in the Middle East, including a week in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, where Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, the man known as The Mad Dog, was desperately clinging to power.

October 20th 2011, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi is dragged from a drain pipe, tortured and killed.
Libya’s self-proclaimed ‘Brother Leader, the one-time revolutionary who overthrew a king and promised a country governed by the people, met his end at the hands of a new generation of revolutionaries, Libyans seeking an end to Gaddafi’s often brutal 42-year rule.
But as the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ uprisings deposed leaders to the east and west of Libya in Egypt and Tunisia, was the fall of Gaddafi inevitable? Was it always destined to be so bloody? And was it simply the unleashed rage of a beleaguered population or were external factors - and external powers – involved in the violence that ripped Libya apart?
This short film uncovers the moments that led up to the protests in the east of Libya and how they turned into a full-scale rebellion. It charts the Gaddafi regime’s response as well as its ultimate demise, and, explores the role of international actors in the break-up of Libya and the death of Gaddafi.

Arguably one of the most important figures in global politics in the second half of the 20th century and beyond, Libya’s Colonel Muammar Gaddafi came to power in 1969 and controlled Libya for 42 years.
The Libyan leader paraded on the world stage with a style so unique and unpredictable that the words "maverick" or "eccentric" scarcely did him justice. His rule saw him go from revolutionary hero to international pariah, to valued strategic partner and back to pariah again.

The old saying goes that “one man’s freedom fighter is another man’s terrorist” so you can understand the difference of opinion at the start of Gaddafi’s reign. But over the decades, this divisive dictator would go from a champion of the people to hiding for his life in a sewer tunnel.
So how did the man who was promoted by Nelson Mandela for his powers of unification wind up dying in his own country’s civil war?
History is full of leaders who proved how absolute power corrupts absolutely, yet there are differences in Gaddafi’s own life that make him stand out from other tyrants.
Was he destined to become maniacal or had outside forces forced his hand? After all, he was just a man. Anyone can turn evil in the right circumstances right?
So it’s time to learn How History Works to find out how Gaddafi went from a poor nomadic child to a freedom fighting hero to an oppressive dictator villain…

From his extravagant robes, to his signature sunglasses, and his band of female bodyguards, Muammar Gaddafi was as eccentric as he was enigmatic. Embraced by South African President Nelson Mandela for his support for various black liberation movements both within and outside of Africa, but dubbed the ‘Mad Dog of the Middle East’ by American President Ronald Reagan for his defiantly anti-Western foreign policies, Gaddafi’s 42 year reign as Libya’s Leader would see him win the allegiance and adoration many African leaders while simultaneously becoming a universal figure of hate all around the Western world.

Gaddafi: The Endgame - State of Denial
State of Denial is the story of the fall of the Gaddafi regime as told by the insiders, defectors and military advisors who helped to bring it about.
Written and directed by Anne Reevell of Moonbeam Films, the film offers a revealing behind-the-scenes account of a revolution, a slice of history in which people took back power.
"The disintegration of the Gaddafi regime in Libya surprised and confused the world - not because it happened in the first place, but because Gaddafi's government remained convinced it could prevail - despite defections, NATO airstrikes and a popular mass uprising," says Reevell.
As the rebels continue to advance towards Tripoli, the Libyan authorities there are in a state of denial, convinced they can still talk to the British government, denouncing the foreign media, burning the homes of Libyan exiles and organising anti-NATO demonstrations in London. The message they relay says there is 'no compromise on leadership,' but do they mean it or are hairline fractures beginning to emerge?
Using the oral diary of a Tripoli-based insider, as well as interviews with the UK prime minister's senior advisor on Libya and leading figures in Benghazi and Tripoli, State of Denial explores the demise of Gaddafi's powerbase and charts the twists and turns of a regime in denial.

http://www.euronews.net/ Pictures that some will find disturbing show Muammar Gaddafi's bloodsoaked body being paraded like a trophy by jubilant fighters.
Those who suffered under his regime may not care, but how Libya's former dictator was killed after apparently being captured may prove controversial.
There are conflicting accounts. A video filmed around the time of his capture offers some clues. In it, Gaddafi appears wounded as he is led away after being caught following NATO's air strike.

*Synopsis | Gaddafi's Last Stand (2011)*
It started with a single voice, a young fruit vendor in a small North African market who one day shouted: "Enough!" It then became one of the largest demonstrations of people power ever seen in the Arab world. In 2011, Ray Martin has spent a fortnight in the Middle East, including a week in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, where Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, the man known as The Mad Dog, was desperately clinging to power.

October 20th 2011, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi is dragged from a drain pipe, tortured and killed.
Libya’s self-proclaimed ‘Brother Leader, the one-time revolutionary who overthrew a king and promised a country governed by the people, met his end at the hands of a new generation of revolutionaries, Libyans seeking an end to Gaddafi’s often brutal 42-year rule.
But as the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ uprisings deposed leaders to the east and west of Libya in Egypt and Tunisia, was the fall of Gaddafi inevitable? Was it always destined to be so bloody? And was it simply the unleashed rage of a beleaguered population or were external factors - and external powers – involved in the violence that ripped Libya apart?
This short film uncovers the moments that led up to the protests in the east of Libya and how they turned into a full-scale rebellion. It charts the Gaddafi regime’s response as well as its ultimate demise, and, explores the role of international actors in the break-up of Libya and the death of Gaddafi.

Arguably one of the most important figures in global politics in the second half of the 20th century and beyond, Libya’s Colonel Muammar Gaddafi came to power in 1969 and controlled Libya for 42 years.
The Libyan leader paraded on the world stage with a style so unique and unpredictable that the words "maverick" or "eccentric" scarcely did him justice. His rule saw him go from revolutionary hero to international pariah, to valued strategic partner and back to pariah again.

Muammar Gaddafi
Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi (Arabic: معمر محمد أبو منيار القذافي; /ˈmoʊ.əmɑːr ɡəˈdɑːfi/; audio ; c. 1942 – 20 October 2011), commonly known as Colonel Gaddafi, was a Libyan revolutionary and politician who governed Libya as its primary leader from 1969 to 2011. Taking power in a coup d'etat, he ruled as Revolutionary Chairman of the Libyan Arab Republic from 1969 to 1977 and then as the "Brotherly Leader" of the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011, when he was ousted in the Libyan Civil War. Initially developing his own variant of Arab nationalism and Arab socialism known as the Third International Theory, he later embraced Pan-Africanism and served as Chairperson of the African Union from 2009 to 2010.
The son of an impoverished Bedouin goat herder, Gaddafi became involved in politics while at school in Sabha, subsequently enrolling in the Royal Military Academy, Benghazi. Founding a revolutionary cell within the military, in 1969 they seized power from the absolute monarchy of King Idris in a bloodless coup. Becoming Chairman of the governing Revolutionary Command Council (RCC), Gaddafi abolished the monarchy and proclaimed the Republic. Ruling by decree, he implemented measures to remove what he viewed as foreign imperialist influence from Libya, and strengthened ties to Arab nationalist governments. Intent on pushing Libya towards "Islamic socialism", he introduced sharia as the basis for the legal system and nationalized the oil industry, using the increased revenues to bolster the military, implement social programs and fund revolutionary militants across the world. In 1973 he initiated a "Popular Revolution" with the formation of General People's Committees (GPCs), purported to be a system of direct democracy, but retained personal control over major decisions. He outlined his Third International Theory that year, publishing these ideas in The Green Book.
