Gaddafi is dead. What’s about Libya and Colonel’s No Hearts Club Band?

Believe or not believe, Gaddafi is dead. Hoping he isn’t a puppet or a double, I ask myself: How will Libya remind of this day? Most of them believe it’s Thursday of freedom, but this may be another silly day where dictatorship transfers from a hand to another one.

I shouldn’t focus on picture of dead Gaddafi, but on an image which has gone unnoticed: the first visit of Sarkozy and Cameron in Libya last September, after the escape of the Colonel. I focused on their speeches because it seemed to me France and Great Britain had discovered again their souls of colonialism.

By the way, future of Libya is the hands of a new relationship between Western and Arabic countries. It is going to change again. Who will rewrite the rules? I don’t think the same members of Col. Gaddafi’s No Hearts Band who flirted with him in good times and then turn their back on. Once upon a time the scent of oil!
