Calling Gaddaffi a hero is very scary indeed. He called his people rats and he was found in a rat hole. That's all that matters now. Saddam did the same and was found in a hole. We still have some people who call PEV planners "heros", they too may find themselves in a hole.
Heros are self evident. No need to call them that. Like Prof. Maathai.
The people who are crying about what is happening in the North are just scared. Wondering which of the Southern States is next.
Gaddaffi and his ilk remind me of all these old geezers in gov't who would rather die than resign.
Only Moi saw the light and as you can see, we are paying him for being wise.
The times "are a changing". You can blame the west all you want. But if your people don't want you, you will be dragged in the streets of your country like a rat and Wazuans will call you a hero.
Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.
