Colonel Khadafi (aka "The King of Kings and "The Revolutionary from the Tents")

Has vowed in a bloodcurdling speech on state television to "die a martyr" in defense of his manorial right to rule Libya like a seedy Plantation.

Yipes this has all the resonance of Mussolini's blustery declarations circa 1945 that he and "five thousand" picked blackshirts would die a Fascist Martyr's death in the Val Tellina in Northern Italy.
It all sounded heroic and defiant, but an hour later Il Duce was cravenly & fruitless  negotiating with the very partisans that had him surrounded.
And unless Khadafi has some serious thugs behind him, he will likely swing from his heels just like Mussolini.
All this would be funny except real people are dying in the streets while this crazy old man rants on and on.

Meanwhile when does this thing hit Cuba and North Korea...Or does it?
