The Mystery Behind Gadhafi's Birth: Some Say He's Jewish

[oberliner]

What if the biggest mystery surrounding Col. Moammar Gadhafi had nothing to do with his long, brutal reign as the world's most eccentric and violent leader turned pariah?

And what if a long-lost letter from a Catholic cardinal who knew Gadhafi's true identity was evidence that could have solved the mystery?

To many Libyan people, the biggest question mark about Gadhafi does not involve his repressive and dictatorial rule, delusional statements or brazen lies. Behind closed doors, for years, they've wondered if he is Jewish. Last week the issue came out in the open, as NBC's Richard Engel reported from Libya that one in five rebels was fighting Gadhafi because he believes the leader is Jewish.

Conflicting reports surrounding Gadhafi's birth have circulated since about 1970, two years after a Gadhafi-led coup made him the de facto leader of Libya.

8. Oh that changes EVERYTHING about Gaddafy using tanks on unarmed protesters!

Not.

Hey did you know that Egyptian protesters in Tahrir Square carried posters of Hosni Mubarak with the Star of David painted over his face?
Well they did. I saw it.

14. I suppose that those signs with the Star of David over Mubarak's face

couldn't may-be possibly might relate to Israel's support of Mubarak remaining in power?

Israel shocked by Obama's "betrayal" of Mubarak

as to the Egyptian revolution losing any support on DU that seems more to be due to the resulting albeit said to be temporary military dictatorship

We're going to arm them and give them money and they'll be another crazy westerner-hating lot with a hard-on for israel.

17. NBC's Richard Engel: 1/5th of rebels was" fighting Gadhafi because he believes the leader is Jewish"

I really wonder what percent of the "rebels" share ideas and motivations just as crazy as Gaddafi's.
