One headline grabbed our attention immediately: “Gaddafi: ‘My People Would Die for Me’”
Considering the news of all that violence and killing going on in his country, maybe that’s really what Gaddafi thinks is going on. Talk about delusional!
Gaddafi sat down with Christiane Amanpour for an interview and explained that he won’t be leaving Libya anytime soon, while also insisting that it’s the will of the people that keeps him in power. Clearly, he doesn’t know what’s going on outside his own window. (Actually, he does seem to be in total denial of all of those protests.)
Seems like Gaddafi wants some US support since he blames the craziness in the Libyan streets on al Qaeda and hallucinogenic drugs, but listening to Secretary of State Clinton, Gaddafi could be getting just the opposite.
Clinton spoke up yesterday to let the international community know that “nothing is off the table” when it came to that situation, and that the US military is ready to do what needs to be done in Libya.
Anything can happen at this point, it seems! We’re keeping an eye out…
