Reply #40: What I find morbidly fascinating is the (non-DU) western Gaddafi apologists --

[Whats_Happening]

Lizzie Phelan, who was never prettier than in her final video from Libya (before she had to sail in rough seas to Malta, along with that Dutch model who had a connection with a Gaddafi son. There is some justice in this world: they had a little fear on that voyage, and more than a little seasickness) -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8KJu0tMT2s

Mahdi Nazemroaya, who even after Canada saved his ass and rescued him back home to Her Majesty's provinces, continues to shill for Gaddafi --

And what about Franklin Lamb? Clearly an old white American anti-Semite, who was at least enough of a journalist to admit that Gaddafi's forces weren't doing so well at the end (and so became persona non grata amongst the pro-Gaddafi westerners) -- speculating that Libyans were just docile, childlike people, and so would accept whatever power ruled over them (he said it sounded Orientalist, and yes it was.) -- http://www.youtube.com/user/108morris108#p/u/40/wcAnAvds7EI

"Junglesurfer" on youtube, some aging Australian trustafarian vegan, who has enough time to shout Viva Gaddafi, when he's not explaining to us about how the London 2012 mascots are the thin end of the wedge for the Illuminati, or how Princess Beatrice's ridiculous hat at the royal wedding was a sign that all those elites worship "serpent gods" --

Leonorenlibia -- a Spanish woman blogger, as pro-Gaddafi and as delusional as any of them, and

108morris108 (that's a youtube handle) -- this obviously Jewish American who now lives in London and who hates the Jews, who has interviewed most of these pro-Gaddafi delusionals. Has anyone else noticed how balding morris was always careful to wear a fedora when he interviewed Leonore? And the way they always smiled at each other with such warmth at the end of their pro-Gaddafi delusion-fests? That's the only thing I won't blame them for; we all have to find love somewhere. (I wish I could find it myself, but that's a whole 'nother issue.)

Again, like I said, I have become morbidly fascinated with the western Gaddafi apologists. :shrug:
