Title
He’s still alive, just like Elvis, Biggie, and Tupac
Summary
Former Libyan Dictator Muammar Gaddafi was killed when NTC fighters overwhelmed his last supporters in his hometown of Sirte. There are conflicting sources as to the circumstances of his death as there is video of him being captured alive, but he is reportted as having been shot in the head during the assault.
Analysis
Obviously the NTC Fighters must’ve killed him to prevent him from ever coming back to power. Because the quickest way to make sure he’ll never regain power, is to make sure he is not alive to do so.
