[QUOTE=yaik9a;31303270]Well it is[/QUOTE] I really can't tell if your posts are serious, you support the man who claimed that the rebels were acting the way they were because of "Al Qaeda"?

[QUOTE=GunsNRoses2;31302561]You're not serious, are you?[/QUOTE] You're talking to a guy with [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yaik9a][b]this[/b][/url] kind of Wiki profile.
if this is genuine support then i'm really concerned about what else the media's been dishing out
[QUOTE=Tac Error;31303669]You're talking to a guy with [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yaik9a][b]this[/b][/url] kind of Wiki profile.[/QUOTE] I abandoned that like years ago, stop using ad homein attacks to back up your nonexistent point.
[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;31302753]I based my assumption off the fact that you support the Gaddafi government and have constantly anticipated the rebel's demise in many, many, many previous threads.[/QUOTE] Also, the German (possibly) SS soldier throwing a grenade in the avatar also helps tip the balance
[QUOTE=yaik9a;31303063][b]Official western intervention[/b][/QUOTE] And how do you know they were intervening prior to the official beginning of the rebellion?
[QUOTE=yaik9a;31303423]Whatever alien intruder oh yes do you think I don't know of your scrin allies so how can we tell [b]your[/b] posts are serious.[/QUOTE] Well, they did loose. :dance:
Its also something worth pointing out that, although he is purportedly a Communist/Socialist, he thinks the poor should be sterilized. That's supporting the proletariat alright. He's a bullshitter and a facist, Enough said. Hell, he's probably just a troll.
They're supportive of Gaddafi for as long as they have a gun pointed behind their backs
[QUOTE=Charybdis;31304220]They're supportive of Gaddafi for as long as they have a gun pointed behind their backs[/QUOTE] Unf Yaika may be an idiot but he's also right in that Gaddafi lead Libya to economic prosperity. Is it so inconceivable that a large amount of people might be brainwashed into supporting him? Contrary to the belief we'd like to have, the whole country isn't wanting to overthrow the despot, as terrible as he is. Otherwise this would be smooth sailing for the rebellion, which is certainly has not been.
[QUOTE=adam1172;31302542]Those people are brainwashed.[/QUOTE] So are we.
Many African countries have dictators. Not many African countries have dictators like Gaddafi, who implemented free healthcare, education, social housing. There is a reason many of the rebels are driving around and bolting weapons onto new brand new vehicles, and that's because the Gaddafi regime has perhaps managed Libyas economic growth better than most other dictatorships could have. Yes, a progressive dictator, but still a dictator. But it has earned him some honestly loyal supporters.
I read an article stating that a Gaddafi aid told a Russian envoy that he was willing to destroy Tripoli if the rebels got to it. [url]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8636883/Libya-Col-Gaddafi-has-suicide-plan-to-blow-up-Tripoli.html[/url] Among other sources. He hasn't used many of his missiles yet, mainly just his air and ground forces.
[QUOTE=Megafanx13;31302935]And to be honest, any source that tries to play this whole thing off as "NATO aggression" and uses the term rebel as "rebel", as if to suggest that they're something other than that, I can't take seriously.[/QUOTE] [img]http://rt.com/files/about/corporate-profile/rt.jpg[/img]
Gaddafi is one ugly motherfucker.
The reason that Gaddafi has support is because unlike many other dictators he actually cared about his people and wanted to improve their lives. Don't give me shit about human rights or that, because genuinely life in Libya was a lot better under Gaddafi than the king who used to be in power.

Does this remind anyone else of the last book of the Hunger Games series?
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;31308507]Godwin, but also. Was Hitler preceded by another totalitarian shithead?

The downside is he was completely unpragmatic and remained rooted to his idealology. If he was sensible he would have broken the rules of his idealology and done the pragmatic thing rather than useless bullshit that did nothing or impeded things. Killing jews, using them as slave labour, threatening to invade Switzerland, not invading Britain. He was completely useless. He should have died in 1940. [QUOTE=Mingebox;31308733]Yeah, I think we can just disregard the opinion of a self-proclaimed Stalinist on topics concerning, uh... anything ever.[/QUOTE] Stalinism has cons as well. A idealology is restrictive. A country should be free to do what is sensible and pragmatic, instead of wasting time and resources on crap the idealology they have stuck to dictates. And why is my opinion disregarded? If you disregard my opinion in that case then your favourite video game is a great game.
