The news came in this morning that Muammar Gaddafi was captured alive but wounded in both legs. Later, this was corrected and we were told that he also had a head-wound (which was not noticed the first time around?) and that he had been killed.
I guess killing him on the spot was easier than poisoning him in The Hague. Also, killing him as a wounded prisoner is probably less humiliating than being hanged by masked men screaming and making a video of it all.
God knows I was really no admirer of Gaddafi, but I am relieved see that he was spared some of the worst and most grotesque "victor's justice" meted out by the Ziocon Empire.
May God have mercy on his soul.
