Libya celebrates after the death of Gaddafi!

Muammar Gaddafi – the dictator who ruled Libya with an iron fist for nearly 42 years before being driven from power in a bloody uprising – has been killed as he tried to flee his hometown of Sirte.

To follow the event as it unfolds via SMH journalist Ruth Pollard's live blog, click here.

Gaddafi was killed by Libyans he once scorned as "rats", succumbing to wounds, some seemingly inflicted after his capture.

Two months after Western-backed rebels ended 42 years of eccentric, often bloody, one-man rule by capturing the capital Tripoli, his death and the fall of the final bastion ended a nervous hiatus for the new interim government, which is now set to declare formal "liberation" with a timetable for elections.

The killing or capture of senior aides, including possibly two sons, as an armoured convoy braved NATO air strikes in a desperate bid to break out of Sirte, may ease fears of diehards regrouping elsewhere - though mobile phone video apparently of Gaddafi alive and being beaten may inflame his sympathisers.

A Libyan official said Gaddafi, 69, was killed in custody.

"We confirm that all the evils, plus Gaddafi, have vanished from this beloved country," interim Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril said in Tripoli as the body was delivered, a prize of war, to Misrata, the city whose siege and suffering at the hands of Gaddafi's forces made it a symbol of the rebel cause.

"It's time to start a new Libya, a united Libya," Jibril added. "One people, one future." A formal declaration of liberation, that will set the clock ticking on a timeline to elections, would be made by Friday, he said.

Shot in head

A spokesman for the National Transitional Council (NTC) in Benghazi, Jalal al-Galal, said a doctor who examined the fallen strongman in Misrata found he had been shot in the head and abdomen. Jerky video shown on Al-Jazeera showed a man looking like Gaddafi, with distinctive long, curly hair, bloodied and staggering under blows from armed men, apparently NTC fighters.


I for one am glad that he is finally out of power, because he is an evil bastard and deserves to rot in hell for all I care. It may have been a little bit too much to kill him; maybe capturing him would have been better, but what happened happened, so I don't really care anymore haha :P

What are your thoughts on this? Did he deserve to die or just rot in jail? Are you glad that Libya can finally move on or could you care less?

Didn't really know why he was hated until reading this. Don't think I have heard of celebrating someone's death since Bin Laden. TBH no one deserves to die, but after what he did I really couldn't care if he died and he doesn't deserve sympathy. Just hope the people can live normal lives now.

Guys while I appreciate this is important news, I have removed the attached video. I think death in the real world needs to be treated with sensitivity regardless of who it involves.

If anyone wants to find the video they are free to search google.

I very much hope that the Libyan people can now unite and make their country into a fair and equitable society!

Well I don't know much about this but I can see it being a very corrupt place.

He seemed to be a bit like Bin Laden but not as powerful and didn't kill as many people but what Scope said about him rotting is a fair call. I also Agree with that.

Yeah I hate Robert Mugabe. He seems like a very racist person. Also I think he is a bit of a loony. I guess all these dictators are!

I think we'll probably see Gillard go before those guys, Dice.

True that Kraz but Gillard is just a spineless fool not a mass murdering power hunger nutter. Just a fool that can not stand up the the independents due to her wishing to hold to what little power she has.

Oh that Red Headed backstabber??? :lol:
I think it's great the Libyan people have the freedom that they have been fighting for.
But for me, I can't see democracy taking off over there.
They will simply swap one Madman for another.
I do hope they can get it together, but past does predict the future.

Well at least with Gaddafi gone, the Libyans have the chance to better there country.
Hopefully they can & will get thing's together this time around.
They have been stuck with Gaddafi for over 40 years, & 40 years too long if you ask me.
