history happens while we have another cup of tea

Watching Gaddafi rambling on on tv. Well, I did for a bit until it got too boring -it was so long and pretty much incomprehensible. And he doesn't seem to realise or understand what is happening around him. I don't know what sort of power and popular base he really may have -probably larger than Mubarak et al and what chances he has but this is probably his last stand.

Things that I said about it on twitter:


Gaddafi is not going to survive this http://tinyurl.com/66c6ygl maybe not today, or this week or even year but his support has gone.

Col Gaddafi seemed immovable like a geological feature, not a fly by night. Him and his imperial pretensions http://tinyurl.com/agcad7

Gaddafi's speeches being long and rambling is not news. He's been batshit crazy for years.

I would be very happy to see him toppled already!
I think that he will put up a long fight and I don't think that he wants to come out of this one alive.
