Title
Gaddafi dragged through streets, beaten till death.
Summary
Gaddafi was taking refuge in a drainage ditch along with body guards, taking cover from an apparent air strike. Graphic cell phone video shows that Gaddafi dragged out of the ditch, clinging to life, and being dragged through the streets and being beaten until he finally died.
Analysis
Now that Gaddafi is dead, Libya can now move forward in rebuilding not only the government but the state. Now with Gaddafi is dead, democracy has a chance to flourish in the once autocratic state.
