(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.

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.

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

Russian media is reporting his death so I do believe he is indeed dead.

MOSCOW, October 20 (RIA Novosti)

Libyans celebrated the death of Muammar Gaddafi with peals of gunfire on Thursday as news broke of the dictator's death during an attack on his hometown of Sirte.

Gaddafi died of his injuries near Sirte, the National Transitional Council said.

The ousted dictator was reportedly captured, wounded in both legs and taken away in an ambulance.

“We announce to the world that Gaddafi has died at the hands of the revolution,” Abdel Hafez Ghoga, a spokesman for the National Transitional Council, was quoted by Al Arabiya as saying.

“It is a historic moment. It is the end of tyranny and dictatorship. Gaddafi has met his fate.”

Al Arabiya reported that the body of the deposed Libyan leader had arrived in Misrata and said it would be allowed to film the corpse.

The Aljazeera satellite TV channel quoted a doctor who examined his body in Misrata as saying Gaddafi had died of bullet wounds to the head and abdomen.

News agencies showed photos of a dead Gaddafi made with a cell phone.

Aljazeera TV showed the first photos of a dead Gaddafi made with a cell phone.

In one photo, Gaddafi, his face covered in blood, is being dragged to a vehicle.

According to some reports, Gaddafi was also hit in his head during an NTC raid on Sirte.

Earlier reports said Gaddafi was captured and "critically injured."

However, Al Libya, a TV channel loyal to Gaddafi, has denied the reports.

Gaddafi's son Motassim was also reported killed in Sirte.

NATO and the U.S. State Department said they could not confirm any of the reports.

That's too bad - It would have been simply awesome if U.S. fighter jets had killed the guy responsible for killing hundreds of Americans over the skies of Lockerbie.

It's too bad your BDS prevents you from celebrating today's events.

The RNC has issued a statement.

"While we would love to celebrate the demise of a dictator responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans, the fact that these events took place during the Obama administration prevents us from doing so. We urge all Americans to turn off their TV and take whatever action; reducing personal spending, laying off workers, eliminating plans for future hiring, buying Chinese-made goods; that will further reduce economic activity to improve the likelihood of defeating Barack Obama next fall."

Give me ONE reason why this "official report" should be believed.

That's too bad - It would have been simply awesome if U.S. fighter jets had killed the guy responsible for killing hundreds of Americans over the skies of Lockerbie.

You mean you and all the other Commies have been bitching, kvetching, and moaning for the last 20 years about Lockerbie and "justice"? Geez, you people are soooo damn FOS.

It's too bad your BDS prevents you from celebrating today's events.

"Celebrating"?? Is that what you Commie-0bamaphiles are doing today as 0bama continues to purposely abuse US power and make a mockery of justice?

THAT is the sole reason for Commie-0bama assassinating world leaders and creating instability and havoc in the Middle East: Embarrassing and undermining American credibility and righteousness.

This can be seen from the video. The Most important job is to stand Qaddafi up. Give him room. Seat him at a table. Good Clean Video shots.

Instead,

Second, we get flashes of Qaddafi. Nothing isolated. Blurs. Perfect for photoshop....

And Still no word of/from any of Qaddafi's sons.

The US authorities have promised to investigate how and when the intimate photographs of the former Iraqi dictator wound up in The Sun , Britain's best-selling newspaper. The tabloid, frontpaged on Friday a photograph of a bare-chested Saddam standing in white underpants and folding a pair of trousers.

The photograph is headlined 'Tyrant's in his pants' and sets the tone for still more humble ones inside the tabloid. The inside photographs show the man who once had a palace in every part of Iraq meekly washing his clothes by hand. Yet another photograph shows Saddam asleep on his bed. The Sun , which refused on Friday, to reveal where, when and how it came by the sensational photographs of the Butcher of Baghdad, would only quote American military sources to say they handed over the photos in the hope of dealing a body blow to the resistance in Iraq.

"Saddam is not superman or God, he is now just an ageing and humble old man. It's important that the people of Iraq see him like that to destroy the myth," the American source is quoted to say. The source added, "Maybe, that will kill a bit of the passion in the fanatics who still follow him. It's over, guys. The evil days of Saddam's Baath Party are never coming back - and here's the proof." But a furore has erupted over the release of the photographs, with presumed American logistical support, from Saddam's American-run prison, at a compound near Baghdad since his December 2003 capture.

British military experts pointed out that the photographs, which may or may not be up to one year old, could still be deemed to have contravened Saddam's rights as a prisoner and could have violated the Geneva Convention.
