From CNN:
Conflicting reports surfaced Thursday that deposed Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi is dead or has been captured. Deafening celebrations erupted in Tripoli, but none of the reports could be independently verified.
Gadhafi was killed, AbdelHakim Bilhajj, head of the National Transitional Council's military arm in Tripoli announced live on Al-Jazeera Arabic Thursday. Gadhafi's death was also reported by National Transitional Council television station Al-Ahrar. It did not cite a source.
I remember that President Obama said that we'd be engaged in action against Libya for "days, not weeks" back in March. So I figure that means we should be leaving Tripoli in, what, 2044 or so?

Well, it certainly couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

When hundreds of thousands of Nigerian Muslims cross Libya, with the help of the soon to be in charge Muslim Brotherhood, how will Italy and France deal with the situation.
Another foreign policy triumph for the first Muslim president.

He really missed his calling as a Broadway costume designer.
Re: Report: Gadhafi Less Alive Now
I read someone saying the rumor was he was found in a sewer waving around a golden gun. That man was a mad man. A really horrible, brutal, murderous mad man. And yet, he engaged in craziness with a certain panache. Drug-addled panache. But panache.

There's a music video in here somewhere:
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet
