This is a perfect example of having no allies and many enemies
-
Funny how the arab spring was meant to stop all the problems that people in the affected countries suffered. How ironic
-
Libya has still not recovered from this
-
Libyans are literally the Eric Andre meme, where they shoot Gaddafi and then turn towards the camera and say "why did Americans kill Gaddafi?"
-
Toyota sales that day: Stonks
-
Clicked faster than Anglo Zanzibar war lasted
-
Assad learned from Gaddaffi and Saddam
-
200 people where killed
Thanks for today's sponsor... -
I really wish YouTube would get its act together and stop demonetizing history. This is my favorite channel but it really sucks only getting content occasionally and sometimes missing it entirely from demonetization.
-
WAIT Was the Admiral General Alladin based on Gaddafi 😂😮
-
Every time Gadaffi is mentioned all i can think of is the United States of Africa meme lol
-
This will certainly be a civil comment section full of rational and well-researched discussion.
-
"What's this my sons what are you doing" -gaddafi last words
-
Remember when Gaddafi told Europe that he was the last defense before the EU would be flooded with migrants from the Middle East and Africa and once he was gone it would get out of control? He definitely wasn't lying.
-
Gaddafi definitely had Chad flashbacks when he saw those Toyotas
-
Unpopular Opinion maybe for a lot, and i'm not from Libya so my Opinion isn't remotely as important, but gettingd rid of Gaddafi was a Mistake in Hindsight, it caused and still causes so many Problems not only in Northern Africa but also all over Europe to this Day. And i say that as a Historian.
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps -
I remember when the same thing happened in Egypt under Mubarak. The difference there was that the security forces had the decency to hold their fire and not murder their fellow Egyptians
-
Will you ever do the Syrian civil war?
-
Regardless of your opinion about him, Gaddafi was one incredibly weird dude.
