Kim Bodnia Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I swear twenty years ago when I read a biography of Gadafi his name was spelled "Khadafi" and the mainstream media used a K instead of a G... what could have happened in twenty years that the spelling was altered? Anyway, there are over 112 different ways to spell Muammar el Khadafi, according to ABC, the topic was raised in 2009: http://abcnews.go.co...-spell-gaddafi/ About the political event, I'm reserving my opinion of it.

ih8music Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 They always do this with all those assholes. Osama was Usama for a while. if by 'those assholes' you mean arabs, then yeah -- there's apparently no direct phonetic translation from arabic to english, which is why the OLB/UBL and MK/MQ/MG variants exist. As for this story - Khadaffi was apparently taken captive by rebels while alive, then beaten up & shot twice, then paraded & dragged around town while barely still living, only to be pronounced dead on his way to a hospital. fair treatment for the guy, I dare to say. edit: gotta love that internet thingy... another graphic one.

lamradio Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I hope when Gadhafi got to hell, he found himself tied to a chair next to Osama Bin Laden in front of these two guys: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
