Title: Gaddafi Dies Of Wounds

(Reuters) - Former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi died of wounds suffered in his capture near his hometown of Sirte on Thursday, a senior NTC military official said.

National Transitional Council official Abdel Majid Mlegta told Reuters earlier that Gaddafi was captured and wounded in both legs at dawn on Thursday as he tried to flee in a convoy which NATO warplanes attacked.

"He was also hit in his head," the official said. "There was a lot of firing against his group and he died."

There was no independent confirmation of his remarks.

Obama did what Reagan tried to do and failed (twice).

Now This has the ring of truth:

"

The analysts who are close to the Libyan leader have told Mathaba that the aim of the rumours is several fold. On the one hand, they wish to demoralize the Libyan resistance which has held out for over 7 months against the strongest terrorists and invading armies in the world. On the other hand, they wish to thus lure the Leader out to make a call in order to attempt to get a fix on his location."

"He's captured. He's wounded in both legs," National Transitional Council (NTC) official Abdel Majid told Reuters news agency.

"He's been taken away by ambulance."

AFP news agency quoted another NTC official, Mohamed Leith, as saying that Col Gaddafi had been captured in Sirte and was "seriously wounded" but still breathing.

Ruh Roh:

CNN:

"Conflicting reports on how he was killed."

What happened to capture? Wounded in both legs?

This story slowly dies a miserable death, and the MSM doesn't miss a beat. Flipping to the White Pretty Baby Girl Missing maybe dead....;}

And everyone will be supposed to forget what they just saw hours earlier....8D

Conflicting reports on how he was killed."

A lot of that going around. I did read where the Information Minister Mahmoud Shammam said he has confirmed that Gaddafi was dead from fighters who said they saw the body. He said he expects the prime minister to confirm the death soon, noting that past reports emerged "before making 100 percent confirmation."

So, it's just another 'wait and see' story....

Like this from Zero Hedge. Once the YoungTurks are openly predicting/disparaging the state, the state is sliding to disintegration:

" When we discussed last week's intiial claims number we said, "In today's weekly dose of BS from the BLS, we get the previous week's massive beat of 401K revised to 405K, cutting the 410K estimate beat in half. But what is important is that the expectation for this week of 405K was once again "massively beaten" by a whopping 1K at 404K. Of course, next week this number will be revised to 408K meaning the consensus was missed but no robots will care." Sure enough, last week's beat was enough for 5 ES points. And even surer enough, we were spot on: last week's 404K "beat" was just revised to a 409K "miss." As for this week's soon to be revised upward number, it came at 403K, missing expectations of 400K, but sure enough, suddenly a "much better" number than last week's revised 409K. Just how dumb does the BLS think everyone is? The bottom line is that claims continue to be persistently higher than 400K, now something like 25 out of 26 weeks in a row, which means there is no hope for any NFP improvements in the future."

The Foreign mirrors the Domestic.

Wondering where Hillary Von Ribbentrop shows up next....;}

The MSM is now claiming he was killed and there is allegedly some graphic video out there of him.

Details as to how he was killed remain sketchy.

Show me the body.

The beginning of 'lying in state'. I think it started with popes.

Not to honor, but to prove he's dead.

When I see this:

" "Gaddafi's body is with our unit in a car and we are taking the body to a secret place for security reasons," Mohamed Abdel Kafi, an NTC official in the city of Misrata, told Reuters....."

My shite-o-meter starts moving into the red....;}

Like Mussolini hanging from a lamppost.

Or the 'Soviet' Afghan leader hung in a public square.

Why the secrecy?....;}

I'm doubting this story more with every passing minute.
