Dictatorial despot to his own people or shrewd diplomatic statesman?
Take a look at the man who managed to win favour with Western countries such as the U.S., Britain, France and Italy, even after having been linked to a number of highly publicized terrorist atrocities through the 70's and 80's.
But now he faces his biggest challenge ever... his own countrymen. And his highest profile diplomats have abandoned ship. I doubt he will be around for too much longer. Maybe it will become a civil war...???
Read Geoffery York's attached article in The Globe & Mail to learn how he has been able to survive 42 years as Libya's leader.
Tell me what you think. Leave your comments below.
