Gaddaffi’s Last Formal Speech Most Read by redvektor(m): 3:09pm On Jul 29, 2015 |
GADDAFFI’S LAST FORMAL SPEECH – THIS IS
VERY MOVING! In the name of Allah, the beneficent,
the merciful… For 40 years, or was it longer, I can’t
remember, I did all I could to give people houses,
hospitals, schools, and when they were hungry, I
gave them food. I even made Benghazi into
farmland from the desert, I stood up to attacks from
that cowboy Ronald Reagan, when he killed my
adopted orphaned daughter, he was trying to kill me,
instead he killed that poor innocent child. Then I
helped my brothers and sisters from Africa with
money for the African Union. I did all I could to help
people Understand the concept of real democracy,
where people’s committees ran our country. But
that was never enough, as some told me, even
people who had 10 room homes, new suits and
furniture, were never satisfied, as selfish as they
were they wanted more. They told Americans and
other visitors, that they needed "democracy" and
"freedom" never realizing it was a cut throat
system, where the biggest dog eats the rest, but
they were enchanted with those words, never
realizing that in America, there was no free
medicine, no free hospitals, no free housing, no free
education and no free food, except when people had
to beg or go to long lines to get soup. No, no matter
what I did, it was never enough for some, but for
others, they knew I was the son of Gamal Abdel
Nasser, the only true Arab and Muslim leader we’ve
had since Salah-al-Deen, when he claimed the
Suez Canal for his people, as I claimed Libya, for
my people, it was his footsteps I tried to follow, to
keep my people free from colonial domination –
from thieves who would steal from us. Now, I am
under attack by the biggest force in military history,
my little African son, Obama wants to kill me, to
take away the freedom of our country, to take away
our free housing, our free medicine, our free
education, our free food, and replace it with
American style thievery, called "capitalism" ,but all
of us in the Third World know what that means, it
means corporations run the countries, run the
world, and the people suffer. So, there is no
alternative for me, I must make my stand, and if
Allah wishes, I shall die by following His path, the
path that has made our country rich with farmland,
with food and health, and even allowed us to help
our African and Arab brothers and sisters. I do not
wish to die, but if it comes to that, to save this land,
my people, all the thousands who are all my
children, then so be it. Let this testament be my
voice to the world, that I stood up to crusader
attacks of NATO, stood up to cruelty, stoop up to
betrayal, stood up to the West and its colonialist
ambitions, and that I stood with my African
brothers, my true Arab and Muslim brothers, as a
beacon of light. When others were building castles, I
lived in a modest house, and in a tent. I never forgot
my youth in Sirte, I did not spend our national
treasury foolishly, and like Salah-al-Deen, our
great Muslim leader, who rescued Jerusalem for
Islam, I took little for myself… In the West, some
have called me "mad", "crazy", but they know the
truth yet continue to lie, they know that our land is
independent and free, not in the colonial grip, that
my vision, my path, is, and has been clear and for
my people and that I will fight to my last breath to
keep us free, may Allah almighty help us to remain
faithful and free". My brothers and sisters let's start
loving more of each other and stop killing each
other cause Europe America and other western
world will never want to see sunshine of Africans... 2 Likes |

I have always said that the worst mistake anybody will make is to allow yourself be influenced by outside sources. Libya can no longer lay claim to the benefits they enjoyed while under the leadership of Gaddafi. Contentment is a very important virtue in life. Once you start to exhibit discontent, you give room to insinuations, suggestions and negative thoughts. If they had any issues, they should have had it thrashed out within themselves, no opening themselves up to outsiders/aliens to wrest control for them. 1 Like |

God bless this man. The African Union erred in their failure to condemn the cold blooded killing of this man. |

He is referring to arabs and not Africans even though he called out African union. As far as am concerned arabs are not Africans and the lands they occupy in Africa by force will haunt them forever. Go back to middle east, arabs claiming homogenous nations in Africa. |

They label him a mad man but he never mind rather he pursue what he believes in vigorously for the benefit of his people. #NowThatYourGone Libya is a war thorn country, a toothless dog in Africa and middle east affair. RIP I ask Allah to forgive your sin and overlook your mistakes. 2 Likes 1 Share |

When all you do is make enemies, train insurgents who raid your neighboring countries, advocate the break up of all your neighboring countries. Fund terrorists that kill, and then also seek to create a United States Of Africa with Tripoli as its capital, and ALSO when you decide to stay in power for decades and decades in the information age. You get destroyed, humiliated and killed, his own people did him in, his own neighbors supported the west against , NIGERIA threw in the deciding vote, why? Cos the guy trained the key members of NDVF, MEND, Boko Haram, Tore apart Chad, disturbed Niger and cast eyes on Sudan. He had to go. He was not mad, he had no friends. 2 Likes |
