Watch Gaddafi, without an umbrella this time, at the link below. Among the choice quotes, the leader says some Arab TV are "serving satan." Which one: the chair?

An early video feed of the speech:

This translation is awful - I look forward in the next few days to someone doing a decent transcript of this...
You can't. He's rambling. I'd rather be a translator for Jabba The Hutt, than this lunatic.
Yeah but never mind the quality feel the width, what quantity. An hour of pure rant.
Report: Ukranian mercenaries flying the MiG's that are bombing Tripoli and support from Italian Mafia:

Agreed, it's not the translation, it's the speech. It's like a foreign interpreter trying to translate the English of a high school dropout from the inner city, it's a nearly hopeless case for the hapless translator.
So, what you're trying to say then, is the translator does NOT speak Arabic "jive"? :>D
Jibberish ranting camel jockey goes ape
Per FT: An increasingly desperate Colonel Muammer Gaddafi was clinging to power with brutal force on Tuesday after protests against his regime hit Tripoli, Libya’s capital, and opposition groups consolidated their control of the eastern regions.
A complete lunatic.
Ohhh yea. Loonie tunes!
Could not have said it better.
certifiable.
So why isn't he President of the USA?
Oh yeah, we already have a certifiable lunatic in that position.
blah, blah, blah, blah.... death sentence to all, blah, blah, blah..... if you breath it is punishable by death, blah, blah, blah..... do you want to be like somalia, blah, blah, blah..... it is the americans, blah, blah, blah......
....and still denying what he is doing to his people, it seems like a last plea. Basically, "You need me!, or all hell will break loose without me"
"You need me, or all hell will break loose without me"
Sounds like Hank Paulson and Timmy G circa 2008 to me.
Sounds even more like Hoseme Mubarak less than a week ago.
Son of a goatherd. I like how the TPB pick their leaders. Full of holes. Burlesque-oni, Gaddafi, Amin, Hitler...always from the dregs to riches and power.....

It's disturbing because I understand them. I need to spend more time outdoors.

Your comment makes me think of how much I miss Mystery Science Theater 3000. Thanks for the laugh.
Ya know, this is a great day in a sad way. I'm laughing my ass off reading these comments and listening to a "world leader" make a complete ass of himself! I think there is hope for the world after all. These idiots are on their last legs
When the people finally found the courage to admit that their Emperor had no clothes, their next reaction was laughter.
No power-that-was can stand up to derision.

But any friend of ‘Itler’s can’t have been all bad

Baronet Oswald Ernald Mosley!
He was popular and handsome as Richard Burton
'Cause I seen on the box once with his black shirt on
And though I cannot claim to be any great authority
As far as I’m concerned the sun shone out of his oratory
He could have been a great dictator given ‘alf a chance
But they treated ‘im like a traitor
So he went to live in France (where else would a traitor live?)

Ouch. :>)
He sounds desperate. I liked the finger-wagging son better. Nothing like a finger-wag to rile the masses.
If he didn't normally show this type of crazy behavior I'd have to agree. Although he does seem less organized in thought than normal.
What a nut.
I have to admit to not paying much attention to him until now. If he has always rattled on like this, I'm surprised the people haven't revolted before now.
You never saw his UN speech then. Good grief talk about insane rambling! He ranted for a good hour and a half.
Was that the one where the interpreter committed suicide rather than try to keep up...or something?
There has had to be a case of that. Listen to the current translator. Every sentence trails off as if he doesn't have a chance at keeping up.
Ha! Yeah, that one. The interpreter collapsed with about 20 minutes to go. Had to have another interpreter step in to finish translating the crazy mans loony tunes.
And here I've been wasting my time trying to keep up with the more subdued, yet equally rambling Japanese politicians.
His translators must eat xanax like candy trying to get ready to keep up with his rambling. Painful to watch/listen to.
I watched 5 minutes of his speech on CNN. I'm not even sure the translation was English.
Right? Ha, sounded like the translator wasn't sure if he should bother finishing the sentence or start the next one.
I never realized how much he looks like Michael Jackson.
Maybe his death really was faked.
Unbrella needed to keep the sun from melting his nose.
He is definitely on the set of the Star Wars bar scene
http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/food/dishing/cantina.jpg
Oh...he's claimed he's the leader of the revolution. Now it all makes sense he wants to depose himself so he can become the dictator.
LOL. You can't make this stuff up. Seeing these autocratic nutjobs behave while they fall, I just wonder whether everyone who stays in power and privilege for any amount of time becomes clinically insane. Or maybe those who seek power are inherently wired faulty. I always say that the great thing about democracy is not that you can choose your leaders, but that you can fire them.
Anybody speak camel?
sounds like "greasy rat" is the new vernacular
Is he in a bunker?
It's his house that was bombed by the US, now a museum.
Blah blah blah I hate America, blah blah blah, Hegel Hegel Hegel.
and Britain (so much for Tony Blair) and the Italians, the French, the Egyptians, and "colonial masters" oh and all other leaders of the world, there were drugs, drink, rats and cats, go Libya...blah, blah
He is not a president so can't resign - he will fight until the last drop of his blood.
Do you want America to come and rule you, like Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan, he asks.
He's changes his glasses and is reading from his own green book talking about a death sentence.
So doesn't look like he's giving up just yet! history in the making here.
(the non-president) is not leaving the building...
there's a role call of countries, china, Russia, Iraq, somalia...
is this the pinnacle of ranting?
That's my Gaddafi!
Sounds like he's talking to camels, not people.
Crude
Filling gaps up?

He said he is leading the revolution...lol....this guy is in the clouds.....
That's not Gaddafi in Tripoli.
It's Mickey Rourke in some Hollywood studio.

I love the translator. You can hear his frustration.
Did anyone notice that giant hand crushing a mocked up version of an American plane?
i thought the translator was trying not to laugh
Best speech ever. Will ask him to do my wedding;
http://english.aljazeera.net/watch_now/
Indeed. One of the WTF speeches! I'm watching aljazeera too. To whom is he speaking to?
This is like a bad French movie -- he doesn't know how to end it. Make sure you have a large hook to pull him off stage
+ 1 large vaudeville hook!
Brilliant.
LOL. Bad French movies frequently flash some "brie white" boobs. U reckon his Amazonian Guards will show up? Don't jump your big hook just now...
Pretty sad when ya don't know that you've just "Nuked the Fridge!"
I really hope you all get what we used to quote in the last 30 days:

and tear that monster down
We need another Reagan bombing run....
We need to stay out of the world's business. For their sake and our own.
I agree, and I think we would have been better off had we left Libya alone. I don't doubt that the man is a murderer and a dictator, but I still feel it was wrong for us to have become involved. There is already talk of U.S. military forces becoming involved in this uprising by shutting down Libyan forces, but I think we should resist such calls. If the government of Libya is to be overthrown, it needs to be carried out by the Libyan people without outside assistance, even if the human cost will be much higher.
I prefer the Marry Poppins/Singin' in the Rain spiel myself.
He's just upset. I don't think he meant Satan, he meant the J.P. Morgue.
It looks like he is hiding in his parent's basement.
Some comic could use this thread as this week's stand up. Hilarious.
Can we do another write-in campaign and get Kaddafi to host SNL? LOFMAO!
That's the longest Hollywood Despot answer I ever heard.
Second intraday BTFD happening now.
The sight of a good old line dictator can be strangely reassuring :)
"What do you mean there is no Silver?!?!?!"
"Dammit I own SLV, it says so right here, you American pig-dog. I kill you."

Mickey Rourke runs Libya?
Yes sir!

Vows to be a martyr? This will end well.
BTFD bitchez lol.
Rotation out of equities in to gold happening
He's talking from the building bombed by the F111s in 1986 under Reagan. They kept it as a national monument.
I would classify this as a rant, just making it up as he goes along..wow, he seems upset
THIS DUDE IS A WACKJOB...NEEDS PREP H
Send him off to the Fletcher memorial home.
"Take the greasy rats out of the street." Those are calming words right there.
If only US politicians had such flair.
May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their armpits! :>D
(Ghadaffi speaks) "My countrymen, Allah is in control. The jooz are evil. And just buy the fucking dips!"
Someone better take this guy out before he sets the Middle East on fire.
He is a raving lunatic.
Text him and ask him if the U.S. really went to the moon.
what no teleprompter?
Insane, ranting tyrants are never at a loss for material. Put him on a street corner in any major city and he'd blend right in with the homeless and day patients.
Poor bastard. Lost the plot completely.
'With this Match, I can light the oil fields on fire and destroy the world! You will all bow before me and kiss my grits!"
I remember a time when Ronald Reagan called Gadaffi a mad dog and I remember the relations since then have been lukewarm.
Right, all because of Reagan, because Gaddafi is pretty swell guy!
That "mad dog" remark may have seem ill-advised at the time, but if this broadcast is any indication, mad dogs are looking good by comparison.
ahh this cant be good...
yeah, stay silent bank owned US Govt...
just let ur ally (read: keep the oil flowing) do the talking....
This guy comes off like a bizarre Arab Gene Simmons
Destroyer era no doubt.
That is probably the most accurate description I've heard yet.

Hmmm, not a bad choice.
Although I have to admit, I would love to see him try Beth. Seems more his speed.
Oops, my bad! I first read that as an Arab RICHARD Simmons! :>D
Hey, if Italy likes him, and Britain sold their honor to him, he can't be all bad.
here comes "the green book"
Seems like quite alot of pages for a book that only says one thing, " those who do not obey will be put to death"
Maybe it's just his copy of, "How to dress like a James Bond Villian" with the cover taken off and he is simply winging it.
Oil about to take off on confirmation that the violence in Libya is just about to begin.Gadaffi does not appear ready to board the Lear just yet.
He is using "punished with death often".
He's just bluffing.
Hey guys.......come on, I was just kidding. Really, you don't have to do this. Just give me a minute to explain. Wait a minute, wait, I'm sorry. Waaaaaaaaaaait.
Civil war is what I'm hearing.
Sorry, but Baghdad Bob still has him beat:
"There are no American infidels in Baghdad. Never!"
"My feelings - as usual - we will slaughter them all!"
"Our initial assessment is that they will all die!"
"I blame Al-Jazeera - they are marketing for the Americans!"
"God will roast their stomachs in hell at the hands of Iraqis."
"They don't want me. (Then) they don't want Libya"
"Death sentence"
"Anybody who undermines the Sovereignty of the State. Death sentence."
He's not giving up.
Civil War here we come.
He could really use a course in how to use a teleprompter. I think there's a place near where I work that gives one, just down Pennsylvania Avenue, I think.
dictator style!
Look, my people, it's not too late for us to make up and have a party! Yes, perhaps I killed a few of you but I will give you their money!"
Well, that's it. If it's written in the green book it must be true.
Oil has got to rocket after this performance.

Ranting or not, but all these threats to USSA, Broken Britain and the rest, will only do favour to these countries. Plenty of reasons to start some serious military moves in ME. I can't stop thinking that all this 'perestroika' is custom made by west side politicos.

I loved the way his son was looking down his nose at the camera...like who the fuck are you, you little shit, you're nothing but the son of a dictator; these idiots have no merit whatsoever
Yes, he is a beast!
Yes, he is a dictator!
Yes, he is a demagogue!
But he IS right regarding USSA!
And you, as Americans should know it better. The world waits for the time you we turn against your owners!
yawn.
Yeah, go to bed, you're right.
Zactly how the world sees you: lazy, fat, stupid.
Well, I'm still eating 3 squares a day, indoors, climate controlled while you and the rest of the world wait.

Too many people have been unplugged from The Matrix.
Now it will be much harder for TPTB to retain control and keep the house of cards from crumbling. Gold is the play
And more are unplugging each and every day that is takes for the "recovery" to still not take hold.After the post Arizona poll bump President Obama's polls numbers in the last few days are back to nearing their all time lows -18 and today -20.
The little demonstration in Wisconsin and childish stunt pulled by feeling the state is not endearing unions to anyone's hearts either. More than ever are aware of the Federal Reserve and the criminality that goes from Wall Street all the way to the upper echoelons of D.C. and the media. $110.00 oil should unplug a few more and each person unplugged who finally gains their reality laser surgery begins to see things with virgin eyes and hear truth with virgin ears as opposed to lies. And it will grow exponentially. ZH has played a pivotal role.
++++. It's a giant snowball rolling down a hill. Also millions of people sliding from the $50K-$150K income range to below $50K has caused a lot of unplugging. And it's ongoing. Shift in the US income pyramid form a bulging diamond to a bottom-heavy pyramid for the first time in 2 generations will be a big eye opener
Isn't there a Predator Drone in the neighbourhood?
Now might be the time to use it.
