it's easy to dismiss gaddafi as a buffoon or just giggle at the tastelessness. one thing i always thought was hilarious was his dozens of female bodyguards: his 'amazonian brigade.' but that was only funny from the outside. you start to get the picture of what gaddafi did to and how he thought about, the women of libya. arwa's piece today was an interview with a 19-year-old woman who said she was forced by gaddafi's men to execute rebels.
