[quote]
(Reuters) - Deposed Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi was captured and wounded near his hometown of Sirte at dawn on Thursday as he tried to flee in a convoy which NATO warplanes attacked, National Transitional Council official Abdel Majid said on Thursday.

The senior NTC military official told Reuters by telephone that the head of Gaddafi's armed forces Abu Bakr Younus Jabr had been killed during the capture of the Libyan ex-leader.[/quote]

Worth noting this is still pending confirmation, given they have been known to "exagerate" in the past...

You all beat me to the reports on maybe dying; guess we'll see whenever they release evidence. Until then I can't help but think of when they "captured" one of his sons.

I cannot say that I am sorry the man is dead. Though, no, I don't celebrate death, usually. Sometimes at a funeral, you can celebrate a person's life....but I'm not sure what anyone would want to celebrate about Gaddafi's life. I'm sure his family has a different view, but still....nah.

At the very least, I hope the details of his life will help to prick the consciences of others who are living with great abundance while those around them have nothing. Because it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a person like that to get into heaven.

Jesus said: "Put your sword back into its place; for all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword.

Gaddaf's demise was inevitable, it was just a matter of time!

Saddam is dead. Gaddafi is dead. And yet the world is not at peace. Jesus is the only Way.

I like how Jesus stopped Gaggafi's forces from massacring the town of Benghazi.









Oh wait...
