Here's how Gadhafi mocked by their nationals:
• GDP per capita - $ 14,192.
• for each family member in the state pays $ 1,000 a year subsidy.
• Unemployment - 730 $.
• Salary Nurse - $ 1,000.
• For every newborn is paid $ 7,000.
• Suite as a gift $ 64,000 to buy an apartment (horror!)
• The discovery of personal business one-time financial assistance - $ 20,000 (what a villain!)
• Major taxes and levies prohibited.
• Education and medicine are free.
• Education and training abroad - at the expense of the state (I weep!!).
• Chain stores for large families with symbolic prices of basic foodstuffs.
• For the sale of products past their expiry date - large fines
• Some pharmacies - with free dispensing.
• counterfeiting of medicines - the death penalty.
• rents - is absent.
• Pay for electricity for the population is missing.
• Sales and use of alcohol is prohibited - "Dry law" (this is unforgivable!)
• Loans for buying a car and an apartment - no interest (bastard!!!)
• Real estate services are prohibited.
• Gasoline is cheaper than water. 1 liter of gasoline - $ 0.14 (and this is certainly the most terrible crime Gadhafi!!)

I am Libyan, i'm just ordinary man, i don't belong to any side. But the thing which makes to say something that Western countries and USA support democracy and people's opinions. Even the other thing NATO says that we protect civilians, but they killed more than 1000 people in Libya by NATO bomb and i one who lost his brother in this bomb. In fact, everthing became clear to the whole people that those countries that attacked Libyan people, they came just for OIL, and occupied the Libyan land, but we will fight and bomb them, we as Libyan 6 million. we did not go to France, Italy, UK or the USA. We live in our country as inncent people, we like peace and support people who call for it. I'm writting these words to the people of these countries, because i know they do not accept what is going on in Libya. And these countries should know that our culture is different of yours; our society is group of tries, and nowdays we work as one tribe aganist those who want to destroy our country and leader.
I think u should kill Obama and all of you stupid USA fuckers,after that the rest of the world would live in peace ;) do u know what Gadafi did for his ppl???? and what your fucked USA did for u???30% of YOU sleeping on the street!!!!Libya had free schools,free hospitals,job for everybody who actually wanted it!they had a perfect system which u will never have cause your country dont care about you...all of you can die and nobody wont do nothing!!!!
Gadafi didnt killed his civilians,YOU did idiots!!!YOU killed so many inocent ppl!!!!!!!!U think u r heroes????YOU r all just a bunch of covards!!!YOU did that to Serbia,Palestine and now to Libya.I saw your courage in Afganistan while u r raping girls!!!!really brave ppl!!!!good for YOU!!!!I saw your courage in Serbia,Ive been there while YOU were bombing my small country,killing the kids and ppl who did nothing!!!!!and why???just to help to stupid Albanians to take our holly land!!!and to turn in into your drug and weapon market!!!!I hate all of YOU so much!!!I hope you will have some many Tzunamies,Kartinas,earthquakes...dont forget that GOD see everything!!!!!YOU will pay for all evil u did to this world!!!

Free Libya - 13 years ago
After Gaddafi killed at least 12000 libyans, i think its fair enough to end his life to stop all the bloodshed.. Our aim as libyans looking for our freedom and a democratic country is to capture Gaddafi and put him on trial for all he did in the past 42 years. We tried peaceful protests to bring down the regime but were answered with live fire and hundreds were killed in the first couple of days.. And now it turned into a war between libyans and the Gaddafi's family. Unfortunately the libyans are weak in military experience and weapons while Gaddafi is well equipped. Nato is doing the least to protect the innocent civilians all over Libya, and yet thats not stopping the bloodshed.
HOW MANY MORE LIBYANS SHOULD DIE?
I'd go for killing one person and saving the rest of people!
Foreveryoung - 13 years ago
Dear All,
i just wanted to highlight something to all of you guys, if America and their friends wanted to finish Gaddafi they would have done so long time ago, before we reached to the 1973 decision of the security concil all of these countries who are now involoved on the Libyan attack were a fraid to say soemthing or to act the EU were pushing the arab countries to say something and it was liek a crumble on the first place, the only country was pushing so hard was France and that was clear because they have done nothing towards Tunise and Egypt so thet took chance on Libya and we thank the French people and the goverment for their suport, geetting Gaddafi down is not a big issue to Nato or America its just a matter of time and i am very confident that Gaddafi now for me personely is HISTORY and i should say BAD History to all Libyans and we will do our best to clear this BAD History.... thanks for yorur readings...

It is against United States law to assassinate people. I believe assassinations is also in violation of provisions of the Geneva Convention. Command and control facilities of an enemy combatant entities, however, can be attacked and destroyed without knowing who or whom is inside such facilities. We see this particularly as pertains to air strikes and bombardments and long range missle strikes and other long range capacity ordinance.

The use of military force by a democracy or by a coalition of democracies in order to overtly (or covertly) kill the leader of a foreign nation or to force that nation to adopt a democratic form of government is, to me, unconscionable. In fact, it's almost Hitlerian in it's profound ethnocentrism. In the current U.S. situation, it's even more heinous because no war has even been declared.
Tony Reynolds - 13 years ago
It is by far the lesser of two evils. We are justified in protecting thousands of innocent men, women and children from being maimed and killed by the deliberate shelling of their homes and probably by the use of chemical weapons on the orders of a ruthless criminal who is already responsible for the imprisonment, torture and execution of many who have opposed him or posed a threat to his autocracy. He has forfeited his right to life by destroying the lives of the very people he purports to represent.

I think Americans have been dumbed down to believe that life is like a movie or video game. I can tell you, as an experienced veteran, that it is not. As a country driven by multi-media fantasy, most people in the United States believe this is acceptable because they are detatched from the reality of hunting and killing humans on a battlefield. I am neither left nor right, but I can tell you this: if you engage in guerilla tactics that expose you as an assassin, the same arbitrary measures will be metered out to your leaders. Most of you don't understand that battles are fought for principle and the honor of those you fight for. To remove that is acceptable if you accept the same for yourself. If that were true, then those deemed harmful to any group of people around the globe (including those in the media that stir vitriolic hatred of any kind of ideology...hollywood elites, news reporters and pundits, opinion columnists, etc..., political figures in any party or none that demagogue issues left or right that cause hate-filled division, clerics and pastors that preach dividing messages...and the list goes on) would be determined legitimate targets. Most of you don't understand because you live in a bubble that is not based in logic. I get that. But please get this...we are a Nation that is armed to the teeth, and if you take the gloves off be prepared to reap the whirlwind that will follow. My colleagues and I would be fine with that. The rest of you would be like helpless cattle blindly walking down the chute, perhaps even deemed dangerous for your opinions or willingness to vote on your 'American Idol' telephones the downfall of those arbitrarily deemed legitimate targets. Think America! Chew slowly so that you can digest truth in place of fantasy.

Assassination, in and of its self, is a terrorist tactic. Any nation that believes their leader, or leaders, are able to (and should) act as judge, jury and executioner, en absentia, should not be surprised (or upset) when other nation states (or, in this era, non-nation aligned organizations ... al Qaeda, for example) decide to do the same. Look … in hindsight, many rational people may think the Nazis should have been assassinated. But didn’t the world gain more from the Nuremburg Trials … death sentence notwithstanding? [The death sentence is another issue entirely, which should not be confused with political (or any other) assassination … For the death penalty allows for a public presentation of charges and defense.] Listen ... I’m just saying that nations that consider themselves civilized, and wish other nations (and non-nation parties) to think of them ... and treat them ... as civilized, should NEVER use assassination as a political tactic.

Impeach him? Are you just maybe SLIGHTLY retarded? Don't you think that if they COULD they WOULD? Hence the whole fighting that going on in Libya. And to the person who thinks that we just want the resources... You're not geographically intelligent nor do you know a damn thing about Libya's exports to the US.... We get a very, very, very, VERY small amount of oil from that country. Very small.
Assassination is the best way to settle this, for the short-term problems. The long-term problems will stem from it but would be less damaging then handling it now. It makes the most sense and would save more lives having him assassinated.

if a nation takes another nations leaders life because it dissaproves of its ethics it will leave an unwanted precident for rival countrys to repeat
assassinations must be kept secret or not at all
the death of one could save the lives of many
or the death of one could destroy many lives
it depends on the point of view
which is why we can not openly agree to this
i am neither for nor against this but i do not want my or any of NATOs leaders killed
so i will express my opinion as so.

Should kill off all the law makers who got us in this deficit that is drowning us. We are looking like the Soviet economy but armed to the teeth. I am surprise that your writers even brings this killing thing up...very primative. This is the reason why Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, China, etc are arming themselves up to defend against actions and thoughts like this. Why did we not put a no fly zone in China when Tianamen event happened. We could not, because they (China) are too big to bully and too cynical to charm. The moral of the international defence policy is get nukes if you are a small country or any country, then what happens in Libya would not happen to you, because no one would try to provoke you. Why dont we put a no fly zone in North Korea, they are oppressing their people worse than Kadafi. Guess why Iran is seeking Nukes? Because they dont want to be the next Libya.

Should NATO assassinate Gadhafi? What an absolutely ridiculous question and trust it to be posed by a Yank! I sincerely hope that it was posed for sensationalism and not because it was being considered. It just goes to show the cowboy mentality that residents of the USA have. We all know that Gadhafi is a dictator, a muderer, a horrible person and all sorts of other negative superlatives but ... he is still a human being. If and when he is captured, he deserves all of the rights of the legal system that he is tried in, nothing more and nothing less. Why you Yanks feel that people that murder for example should be immediately executed or tortured just shows how low your society has gone.

Nobody likes dictators, especially brutal and insane ones. But what is the answer to such? I think the people themselves must rise and rid themselves of such dictatorship - I strongly feel that if they are not ready to do such, no matter how difficult that might be, then they are also not ready for freedom from such dictatorship. "Outsiders" must leave things alone and hope for the day - unless such "ousiders" wish to become and continue on as "insiders". Otherwise what the outsiders could leave behind after their imposition of another condition will trun out become another evil situation. Please think deeply about this.
Can you see what NATO is doing in the eyes of an African? Are the Western leaders any different from Ghadaffi in the belief that "Might is Right"? Did you realise how the opinion and direction of the African Union towards resolution were completely ignored? Again, please think deeply about this.
Charles - 13 years ago
Who says that assassinating Ghadafi would solve the problem? For all we know, an assassination would just make him a martyr. There are still people who support Ghadafi and all an assassination might do is fuel the flames and give his supporters moral justification to continue their fight. I'm not saying the guy deserves to be left in power but an assassination may just be counter-productive to the goal of bringing peace to the area.
Its one thing to back up a rebel group opposing autocratic rule by leveling the playing field. Its another entirely to go in and start killing leaders that we don't like.
Its okay though right? Its not like the Middle East already despises the fact that the Western world has intervened in the region since the crusades.

To assassinate Gaddalfi would delegitify Nato's cause and mandate. They are their to protect civilians and civilians only. Death is an easy way out, and this man does not deserve that. What we should do is rendition his butt, and put him in trial for crimes against humanity and let the people of LIBYA decide his fate. Assassinating Gaddafi would only fuel the fire of Western hatred in the Middle East. We should use this opportunity to show the people of the middle east that we can be trusted and that we are friends.
mark - 13 years ago
the terriosts do not follow any rules of engagement so why hamstring our leaders? i think we should do it covertly. this leaves it open for speculation as to who the responsible party is. we should not be able to know all the government secrets as to how they do business and keep us safe. we want to know all the details all the time and this makes doing business diffacult. secret hit squads or spys and assasins should be part of our governments tools. lets do business and get done what really needs to be done with this fanatics in the middle east.

I agree with some of (One death to help billions?) comment. For all the people that have been put through hell and killed because of Ghadaffi. I don't see why they shouldn't get rid of Ghadaffi. Killing an Innocent man would be different of course, but Ghadaffi is not an Innocent person.
Meekrob - 13 years ago
I love how this is a poll. Of course if we assassinate him someone else will fill his role. They could be worse but they could also be better. I don't see how this is morally wrong as a poll. It's asking for people's opinions. It's not like NATO had CNN make this as a poll to see if Americans are going to be ok with them killing Ghadaffi. But if NATO assassinates Ghadaffi and it could make Libya a much better place, then shouldn't they go ahead and try?
Anabel - 13 years ago
Am I really reading this correctly?!! Are you actually taking a poll on whether someone, regardless of the circumstance, should be assassinated? Is this what we've come to as a people? Would the opposition's use of polls to determine people targeted for assassination make the assassination "pre-approved" and ok? Wow...suddenly I feel a wave of nausea coming...sort of what I felt after completing my studies on the origin of the Catholic Church and their "recruiting" practices. What's next?

As was the case with Saddam Hussein goes the case with Gadaffi: No one has the right to determine who leads any sovereign country except the residents of that country. No one has the right to kill someone that has not been convicted of a capital crime and sentenced to death by a proper authority. NATO is not. The USA is not. GB is not. France is not.
Who are the rebels? Who are their leaders? Who are their friends and enemies? Why do we think that they should be in charge of anything? Why have we spent hundreds of millions of dollars to aid them?

One death to help billions? - 13 years ago
If you look at alchemy for something to be gained something of equal or greater value must be lost. For world peace there must be a death or more to make up for the blood being saved. It doesn't matter if all the worlds governments are made up of misleading, greedy, old guys that want nothing more than money and the ability to control peoples lives, it's all about the world being able to be powered for a few more years despite the really dangerous effects it has on the planet. If it means one person has to be sacrificed for the rest of the world to keep working then it's fine by me. Personally I could lead the world better than any of the current world leaders without getting caught in political scandals or other things because they don't care about anything else except themselves. The education systems are terrible as "hell". The point is if "majority" wants too kill one out of billions it should be okay. People don't want to believe that greed, war, and power hunger are all imprinted into our DNA. Nature can't have peace without war, can't have life without death. I believe humans should destroy at least 2/3 of the worlds military and convert it to one big space program but the religions are always butting in and causing some distraction by killing off people in another religion just because they go against their own religion. It was all caused by some hallucinating guy who was going to sacrifice one of his sons to some imaginary "man in the sky" and one of the kids got ticked off and decided to tell everyone he was supposed to be sacrificed which started religions and then came some guy who got really lucky and lead some people into a desert for 40 years where some aliens dropped off their "god" which has lead to current day beliefs and customs. I am off topic but the point is that people should drop the religions, accept each others' differences and let's just explore space for a while and see if we can find our long lost friends. How 'bout it?
Avi - 13 years ago
Sorry to say but had the world's response been the same for uprisings in other regions - such as Syria, China or Darpur - where there is not necessarily big interest in oil, I would have claimed differently.
The uprising in Libya is an internal affair just as it is in any other country and the SOLE reason for the invasion by the West and they efforts to kill Ghadaffi beyond the fake mandate given by the UN - is the fact that the West was certain the Ghadaffi is going to fall, denouncing him having assumed the rebels are going to win. The minute Ghadaffi managed to push them back - the West (Britian, the USA and other European countries having DRILLING rights in Lybia) immediately panicked, having understood that they pulled a bad card by supporting the rebels and if Ghadaffi takes over Libya - they will lose billions-worth drilling rights.
It is about oil. Not human rights. Pure hostile takeover of oil fields.
Otherwise - why doesn't the West bombard in Darpur or other countries where many more people are killed? (The answer is: because there is nothing worth money there, other than sand).
So in this case, Ghadaffi is a victim of pure colonialism and hostile take-over - exposing the "Western Democracy" and care for human rights, as long as it pays off in dollars.
Charles - 13 years ago
A violent strike against Gadhafi, at this point, may be a quick fix for the problem of the Leadership in Libya, but this would only create more problems in the long term. Western intervention is highly opposed in the Middle East by many groups and a NATO backed assassination may only fuel the fire. There's also no guarantee that an assassination would lead to a peaceful resolution in Libya and no guarantee that there would be no innocent casualties and collateral damage.
If there were some way to guarantee absolute precision, no collateral damage, and proof of a peaceful outcome as a result, this could be considered a legitimate option. This is still unlikely however, because a legitimate political institution such as NATO engaging in political assassinations could undermine the positive goals of the institution altogether.

I agree that NATO should be able to consider this optiion if they see this fits in order to ensure quick settlement of peace in the troubled area. If taking out the leadership is considered to be the most effective and least bloodshedding way, I would support it.
However, I wouldn't agree so much to that if the attempt for assassination is conducted by bombing every suspected safe house of Gadhafi. Provided that Gadhafi survived so far, it is highly likely that the assassination mission would fail, and that's just another terrorism. As this measure carries high sense of morality issue, I think it has to be done with high precision.

I would support the proposal that the Security Council have the authority to remove any leader from office and confine him, and his family if they so wish, to New York City for life. A simple invite to NYC and be removed from office. Very simple idea. No blood, no murder, eventually, peace.
I further would like to see the modification that the SC Veto be broadened. Make it take three (3) permanent members of the Security Council to veto a resolution. Further, Germany, Japan , India and Brazil need to become permanent, veto wielding members of the Security Council.
Further, Israel must be held to account for her crimes against the Palestinians. The idea of the U.S. using her veto for the benefit of a theocratic, racist, aggressive state is insane. They conduct targeted assassinations every day and nothing and no one is immune, not even American citizens!!!
Here's how Gadhafi mocked by their nationals:
• GDP per capita - $ 14,192.
• for each family member in the state pays $ 1,000 a year subsidy.
• Unemployment - 730 $.
• Salary Nurse - $ 1,000.
• For every newborn is paid $ 7,000.
• Suite as a gift $ 64,000 to buy an apartment (horror!)
• The discovery of personal business one-time financial assistance - $ 20,000 (what a villain!)
• Major taxes and levies prohibited.
• Education and medicine are free.
• Education and training abroad - at the expense of the state (I weep!!).
• Chain stores for large families with symbolic prices of basic foodstuffs.
• For the sale of products past their expiry date - large fines
• Some pharmacies - with free dispensing.
• counterfeiting of medicines - the death penalty.
• rents - is absent.
• Pay for electricity for the population is missing.
• Sales and use of alcohol is prohibited - "Dry law" (this is unforgivable!)
• Loans for buying a car and an apartment - no interest (bastard!!!)
• Real estate services are prohibited.
• Gasoline is cheaper than water. 1 liter of gasoline - $ 0.14 (and this is certainly the most terrible crime Gadhafi!!)
Whether and voting "Libyans in the answer should bomb New York" will yield the same results?

yes they have to do it . they have get the snake s head ASAP or he will be killing more and more by poison gas soon than the war will taking a long time .. thanks to doing that operation soon
After Gaddafi killed at least 12000 libyans, i think its fair enough to end his life to stop all the bloodshed.. Our aim as libyans looking for our freedom and a democratic country is to capture Gaddafi and put him on trial for all he did in the past 42 years. We tried peaceful protests to bring down the regime but were answered with live fire and hundreds were killed in the first couple of days.. And now it turned into a war between libyans and the Gaddafi's family. Unfortunately the libyans are weak in military experience and weapons while Gaddafi is well equipped. Nato is doing the least to protect the innocent civilians all over Libya, and yet thats not stopping the bloodshed.
HOW MANY MORE LIBYANS SHOULD DIE?
I'd go for killing one person and saving the rest of people!
Dear All,
i just wanted to highlight something to all of you guys, if America and their friends wanted to finish Gaddafi they would have done so long time ago, before we reached to the 1973 decision of the security concil all of these countries who are now involoved on the Libyan attack were a fraid to say soemthing or to act the EU were pushing the arab countries to say something and it was liek a crumble on the first place, the only country was pushing so hard was France and that was clear because they have done nothing towards Tunise and Egypt so thet took chance on Libya and we thank the French people and the goverment for their suport, geetting Gaddafi down is not a big issue to Nato or America its just a matter of time and i am very confident that Gaddafi now for me personely is HISTORY and i should say BAD History to all Libyans and we will do our best to clear this BAD History.... thanks for yorur readings...
Free Libyan form the Great Mountains of Gherian
yes NATO or anyone can should assassinate Gdaffi and end up this blood river, that for the libyan women kids men for all the peopel he killed in Lockerbie and everywhere in the world , anyone would assassinate this man the hisotry ganna remeber him as hero.
the least nato can do
he and his family>>>
not only gadhafi every one hold gadhafi's genes
CNN, have you gone INSANE? Whoever created this "poll" should be in jail by now. I shall report this.
CNN, do you think after THIS ANY SANE PERSON will ever watch you or read you? Hahahahah. You made clowns of youserlves.
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
they must kill him
killing means the stop of mass murder
@lee
wtf?????????????
don't Palestinians have the rights to exist too??????????????????
so basically u meen to keep gaddafi becsaseu he kills arabs which are enemies of isreal this way 6 million people will be killed for isreal. i like your idea for mass murder just for a stupid isreali nation to live.
His presence cost hundrends of lives every day, so I would really like to see the UN Security Council to issue a new resolution targeting Qaddafi and his sons.
Thousands of Libyan rebels and civilians are killed by Qaddafi military every moment . right now Sunday his military killing civilians not by guns but by heavy weapons in Misurata. so he should be killed now now. do not wait NATO .
The law of war is very clear in the situation and was best stated by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes over a hundred years ago. If a terrorist enemy murders civilians or other non-combatants the only effective remedy is to reply in kind.
It is against United States law to assassinate people. I believe assassinations is also in violation of provisions of the Geneva Convention. Command and control facilities of an enemy combatant entities, however, can be attacked and destroyed without knowing who or whom is inside such facilities. We see this particularly as pertains to air strikes and bombardments and long range missle strikes and other long range capacity ordinance.
The use of military force by a democracy or by a coalition of democracies in order to overtly (or covertly) kill the leader of a foreign nation or to force that nation to adopt a democratic form of government is, to me, unconscionable. In fact, it's almost Hitlerian in it's profound ethnocentrism. In the current U.S. situation, it's even more heinous because no war has even been declared.
It is by far the lesser of two evils. We are justified in protecting thousands of innocent men, women and children from being maimed and killed by the deliberate shelling of their homes and probably by the use of chemical weapons on the orders of a ruthless criminal who is already responsible for the imprisonment, torture and execution of many who have opposed him or posed a threat to his autocracy. He has forfeited his right to life by destroying the lives of the very people he purports to represent.
I think Americans have been dumbed down to believe that life is like a movie or video game. I can tell you, as an experienced veteran, that it is not. As a country driven by multi-media fantasy, most people in the United States believe this is acceptable because they are detatched from the reality of hunting and killing humans on a battlefield. I am neither left nor right, but I can tell you this: if you engage in guerilla tactics that expose you as an assassin, the same arbitrary measures will be metered out to your leaders. Most of you don't understand that battles are fought for principle and the honor of those you fight for. To remove that is acceptable if you accept the same for yourself. If that were true, then those deemed harmful to any group of people around the globe (including those in the media that stir vitriolic hatred of any kind of ideology...hollywood elites, news reporters and pundits, opinion columnists, etc..., political figures in any party or none that demagogue issues left or right that cause hate-filled division, clerics and pastors that preach dividing messages...and the list goes on) would be determined legitimate targets. Most of you don't understand because you live in a bubble that is not based in logic. I get that. But please get this...we are a Nation that is armed to the teeth, and if you take the gloves off be prepared to reap the whirlwind that will follow. My colleagues and I would be fine with that. The rest of you would be like helpless cattle blindly walking down the chute, perhaps even deemed dangerous for your opinions or willingness to vote on your 'American Idol' telephones the downfall of those arbitrarily deemed legitimate targets. Think America! Chew slowly so that you can digest truth in place of fantasy.
I vote one yes for every innocent person killed by his command.
Assassination, in and of its self, is a terrorist tactic. Any nation that believes their leader, or leaders, are able to (and should) act as judge, jury and executioner, en absentia, should not be surprised (or upset) when other nation states (or, in this era, non-nation aligned organizations ... al Qaeda, for example) decide to do the same. Look … in hindsight, many rational people may think the Nazis should have been assassinated. But didn’t the world gain more from the Nuremburg Trials … death sentence notwithstanding? [The death sentence is another issue entirely, which should not be confused with political (or any other) assassination … For the death penalty allows for a public presentation of charges and defense.] Listen ... I’m just saying that nations that consider themselves civilized, and wish other nations (and non-nation parties) to think of them ... and treat them ... as civilized, should NEVER use assassination as a political tactic.
The darkness drops again but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
Yeats
Impeach him? Are you just maybe SLIGHTLY retarded? Don't you think that if they COULD they WOULD? Hence the whole fighting that going on in Libya. And to the person who thinks that we just want the resources... You're not geographically intelligent nor do you know a damn thing about Libya's exports to the US.... We get a very, very, very, VERY small amount of oil from that country. Very small.
Assassination is the best way to settle this, for the short-term problems. The long-term problems will stem from it but would be less damaging then handling it now. It makes the most sense and would save more lives having him assassinated.
if a nation takes another nations leaders life because it dissaproves of its ethics it will leave an unwanted precident for rival countrys to repeat
assassinations must be kept secret or not at all
the death of one could save the lives of many
or the death of one could destroy many lives
it depends on the point of view
which is why we can not openly agree to this
i am neither for nor against this but i do not want my or any of NATOs leaders killed
so i will express my opinion as so.
Idea, age 14
Should kill off all the law makers who got us in this deficit that is drowning us. We are looking like the Soviet economy but armed to the teeth. I am surprise that your writers even brings this killing thing up...very primative. This is the reason why Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, China, etc are arming themselves up to defend against actions and thoughts like this. Why did we not put a no fly zone in China when Tianamen event happened. We could not, because they (China) are too big to bully and too cynical to charm. The moral of the international defence policy is get nukes if you are a small country or any country, then what happens in Libya would not happen to you, because no one would try to provoke you. Why dont we put a no fly zone in North Korea, they are oppressing their people worse than Kadafi. Guess why Iran is seeking Nukes? Because they dont want to be the next Libya.
Gaddafi should be assinated. He is the culprit. Why go through all of this nonsense when we know who needs to be punished and finished to give peace to that land and what the people want. The World leadesr know what the solution is, but do not have the courage to carry it out.
Are you serious? That many people think it is okay to straight-up kill a guy because of bad leadership? In that case...who else should be killed? Jeez!!! Is that what the world is coming to? "Just kill him and bring in someone else." Hell no! Impeach him. Make him retire. Who gives anyone the right to kill anyone else? NO ONE!!! Violence is not the answer!!
Should NATO assassinate Gadhafi? What an absolutely ridiculous question and trust it to be posed by a Yank! I sincerely hope that it was posed for sensationalism and not because it was being considered. It just goes to show the cowboy mentality that residents of the USA have. We all know that Gadhafi is a dictator, a muderer, a horrible person and all sorts of other negative superlatives but ... he is still a human being. If and when he is captured, he deserves all of the rights of the legal system that he is tried in, nothing more and nothing less. Why you Yanks feel that people that murder for example should be immediately executed or tortured just shows how low your society has gone.

Nobody likes dictators, especially brutal and insane ones. But what is the answer to such? I think the people themselves must rise and rid themselves of such dictatorship - I strongly feel that if they are not ready to do such, no matter how difficult that might be, then they are also not ready for freedom from such dictatorship. "Outsiders" must leave things alone and hope for the day - unless such "ousiders" wish to become and continue on as "insiders". Otherwise what the outsiders could leave behind after their imposition of another condition will trun out become another evil situation. Please think deeply about this.
Can you see what NATO is doing in the eyes of an African? Are the Western leaders any different from Ghadaffi in the belief that "Might is Right"? Did you realise how the opinion and direction of the African Union towards resolution were completely ignored? Again, please think deeply about this.
Who says that assassinating Ghadafi would solve the problem? For all we know, an assassination would just make him a martyr. There are still people who support Ghadafi and all an assassination might do is fuel the flames and give his supporters moral justification to continue their fight. I'm not saying the guy deserves to be left in power but an assassination may just be counter-productive to the goal of bringing peace to the area.
Its one thing to back up a rebel group opposing autocratic rule by leveling the playing field. Its another entirely to go in and start killing leaders that we don't like.
Its okay though right? Its not like the Middle East already despises the fact that the Western world has intervened in the region since the crusades.
To assassinate Gaddalfi would delegitify Nato's cause and mandate. They are their to protect civilians and civilians only. Death is an easy way out, and this man does not deserve that. What we should do is rendition his butt, and put him in trial for crimes against humanity and let the people of LIBYA decide his fate. Assassinating Gaddafi would only fuel the fire of Western hatred in the Middle East. We should use this opportunity to show the people of the middle east that we can be trusted and that we are friends.
the terriosts do not follow any rules of engagement so why hamstring our leaders? i think we should do it covertly. this leaves it open for speculation as to who the responsible party is. we should not be able to know all the government secrets as to how they do business and keep us safe. we want to know all the details all the time and this makes doing business diffacult. secret hit squads or spys and assasins should be part of our governments tools. lets do business and get done what really needs to be done with this fanatics in the middle east.
I agree with some of (One death to help billions?) comment. For all the people that have been put through hell and killed because of Ghadaffi. I don't see why they shouldn't get rid of Ghadaffi. Killing an Innocent man would be different of course, but Ghadaffi is not an Innocent person.
I love how this is a poll. Of course if we assassinate him someone else will fill his role. They could be worse but they could also be better. I don't see how this is morally wrong as a poll. It's asking for people's opinions. It's not like NATO had CNN make this as a poll to see if Americans are going to be ok with them killing Ghadaffi. But if NATO assassinates Ghadaffi and it could make Libya a much better place, then shouldn't they go ahead and try?
Am I really reading this correctly?!! Are you actually taking a poll on whether someone, regardless of the circumstance, should be assassinated? Is this what we've come to as a people? Would the opposition's use of polls to determine people targeted for assassination make the assassination "pre-approved" and ok? Wow...suddenly I feel a wave of nausea coming...sort of what I felt after completing my studies on the origin of the Catholic Church and their "recruiting" practices. What's next?
As was the case with Saddam Hussein goes the case with Gadaffi: No one has the right to determine who leads any sovereign country except the residents of that country. No one has the right to kill someone that has not been convicted of a capital crime and sentenced to death by a proper authority. NATO is not. The USA is not. GB is not. France is not.
Who are the rebels? Who are their leaders? Who are their friends and enemies? Why do we think that they should be in charge of anything? Why have we spent hundreds of millions of dollars to aid them?
Ghadaffi should be captured, then tried and hung by the people, just like Saddam.
If you look at alchemy for something to be gained something of equal or greater value must be lost. For world peace there must be a death or more to make up for the blood being saved. It doesn't matter if all the worlds governments are made up of misleading, greedy, old guys that want nothing more than money and the ability to control peoples lives, it's all about the world being able to be powered for a few more years despite the really dangerous effects it has on the planet. If it means one person has to be sacrificed for the rest of the world to keep working then it's fine by me. Personally I could lead the world better than any of the current world leaders without getting caught in political scandals or other things because they don't care about anything else except themselves. The education systems are terrible as "hell". The point is if "majority" wants too kill one out of billions it should be okay. People don't want to believe that greed, war, and power hunger are all imprinted into our DNA. Nature can't have peace without war, can't have life without death. I believe humans should destroy at least 2/3 of the worlds military and convert it to one big space program but the religions are always butting in and causing some distraction by killing off people in another religion just because they go against their own religion. It was all caused by some hallucinating guy who was going to sacrifice one of his sons to some imaginary "man in the sky" and one of the kids got ticked off and decided to tell everyone he was supposed to be sacrificed which started religions and then came some guy who got really lucky and lead some people into a desert for 40 years where some aliens dropped off their "god" which has lead to current day beliefs and customs. I am off topic but the point is that people should drop the religions, accept each others' differences and let's just explore space for a while and see if we can find our long lost friends. How 'bout it?
Sorry to say but had the world's response been the same for uprisings in other regions - such as Syria, China or Darpur - where there is not necessarily big interest in oil, I would have claimed differently.
The uprising in Libya is an internal affair just as it is in any other country and the SOLE reason for the invasion by the West and they efforts to kill Ghadaffi beyond the fake mandate given by the UN - is the fact that the West was certain the Ghadaffi is going to fall, denouncing him having assumed the rebels are going to win. The minute Ghadaffi managed to push them back - the West (Britian, the USA and other European countries having DRILLING rights in Lybia) immediately panicked, having understood that they pulled a bad card by supporting the rebels and if Ghadaffi takes over Libya - they will lose billions-worth drilling rights.
It is about oil. Not human rights. Pure hostile takeover of oil fields.
Otherwise - why doesn't the West bombard in Darpur or other countries where many more people are killed? (The answer is: because there is nothing worth money there, other than sand).
So in this case, Ghadaffi is a victim of pure colonialism and hostile take-over - exposing the "Western Democracy" and care for human rights, as long as it pays off in dollars.
A violent strike against Gadhafi, at this point, may be a quick fix for the problem of the Leadership in Libya, but this would only create more problems in the long term. Western intervention is highly opposed in the Middle East by many groups and a NATO backed assassination may only fuel the fire. There's also no guarantee that an assassination would lead to a peaceful resolution in Libya and no guarantee that there would be no innocent casualties and collateral damage.
If there were some way to guarantee absolute precision, no collateral damage, and proof of a peaceful outcome as a result, this could be considered a legitimate option. This is still unlikely however, because a legitimate political institution such as NATO engaging in political assassinations could undermine the positive goals of the institution altogether.
1,110 idiots are war mongers supporting an assassination agaisnt Gadhafi because the western mainstream media told you so? either that or 1,110 are spam bots.
Are you people blind or something?
The real reason for supporting the rebels or PMC, terrorists is because of libyas
Resources or/and control of the financial institutions.
I agree that NATO should be able to consider this optiion if they see this fits in order to ensure quick settlement of peace in the troubled area. If taking out the leadership is considered to be the most effective and least bloodshedding way, I would support it.
However, I wouldn't agree so much to that if the attempt for assassination is conducted by bombing every suspected safe house of Gadhafi. Provided that Gadhafi survived so far, it is highly likely that the assassination mission would fail, and that's just another terrorism. As this measure carries high sense of morality issue, I think it has to be done with high precision.

The Bible itself is FALSE
Israel has no right to one square foot of Palestinian land. They lost that right when Rome kicked their butts, but good. Where was Yahweh then?
Israel needs to defend itself if the Palestinians want peace then they need to stop trying to destroy Israel and acknowlage their right to exist!!!!!
I would support the proposal that the Security Council have the authority to remove any leader from office and confine him, and his family if they so wish, to New York City for life. A simple invite to NYC and be removed from office. Very simple idea. No blood, no murder, eventually, peace.
I further would like to see the modification that the SC Veto be broadened. Make it take three (3) permanent members of the Security Council to veto a resolution. Further, Germany, Japan , India and Brazil need to become permanent, veto wielding members of the Security Council.
Further, Israel must be held to account for her crimes against the Palestinians. The idea of the U.S. using her veto for the benefit of a theocratic, racist, aggressive state is insane. They conduct targeted assassinations every day and nothing and no one is immune, not even American citizens!!!
