Gaddafi - Once Upon A Time In Libya

There's no doubt that its an extremely good thing for the people of Libya that Gaddafi and his family's regime are gone from the country, even though Gaddafi himself maintained he was only a figurehead leader from 1977 since the bloodless coup of 1969.

Although a political pariah, his country's oil supply soon brought him back into the international fraternity who had no problem with him taking power in the first place. And there's a few more than just the usual "capitalist west" suspects who were only too happy to be seen in his company, despite countless attrocities against his own people

Those involved with the Arab Spring would do well to tread carefully with these "Men of Honour"
