Qadhdhafi

I am watching him on Libyan regime TV.  He is speaking on the anniversary of his declaration of "people's power" some 34 years ago.  Again, he is not sedated as he has been for years.  More sharp and alert than usual.  I am watching and hoping that someone in the crowd would leap and rid the Libyan people of him.  The crowd is largely silent and quiet: the air of the event reminds me of Ceaușescu's last rally.  He is speaking different: he is more chatty than usual, and appears less smug than recent appearances.  A guy who became a tool for Bush and Cheney has the audacity of calling or his protesters "agents".
