Amazonian Guard

Jamahiriya!

Perhaps the strongest case ever for not drinking the bong water?

While John, Paul and George plotted and prepped the guitar arrangements for Abbey Road's "The End" - wiping clean and drawing yet again the face of popular music, certain diplopolititary arrangements were being plotted and prepped that, like the influence of the Fab Four, are still with us today. 

Seduced by hot nat'lism ala Nasser, a young Bedouin Captain - fresh back from command schools like the prestigious Evelpidon Military Academy in Greece and extended courses at Great Britain's Sandhurst - led a bloodless coup d'état against Libya's old King Idris totally seizing power in about 2 hours.

And it's been a freak show every since.

Expelling Eye tyes, asking Great Satan to split from Wheelus AFB - even kicking out 30K Palestinians in a mini Nakbah - Captain Khadaffy ceremoniously promoted himself to full bird Colonel, proclaiming the full time gig as Prime Minister of Libya's Revolutionary Command Council. Then he ditched the title in 1972, gaming the far hotter sounding nom d'guerre "Guide of the First of September Great Revolution of the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya" or "Brotherly Leader and Guide of the Revolution".

In an omage to Chairman Mao's Lil Red Booklet, Colonel Khadaffy wrote the Lil Green Booklet 
which outlined the idea of "Jamahiriya" or "State of the masses" often unxlated into the Queen's english as the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya - not unlike a Peoples Republic.

Colonel Khadaffy also pioneered terrorism as an extension of covert statecraft. Aside from fundage for Black September of München Massacre infamy, this cat also patronized the PLOld school pre Fatah killers and creeps - eventually going one on one with Great Satan like the Berlin bombing that killed American GI's at Le Bell Tanz Club which dang near got him killed in 40's famous "Operation El Dorado" payback op

Libya took terror to Great Britain - senselessly killing a London police lady and literally blew hundreds of innocents out of the sky over Lockerbie Scotland.

Deploying hot! Praetorians like the amazing cherry intact Amazonian Guards -

"...The Amazonian Guard are put through rigorous training at a special academy and if they make it through the basic training ordeal are experts with firearms and martial arts making them trained killers. The women who qualify for duty are required to be virgins and must be hand picked by Qaddafi himself.

"...There are perks to swearing allegiance and life to Qaddafi. The Amazonian guard dress in western style fatigues, can wear make up, western hair styles, high heels, and other clothing not deemed acceptable in the Muslim world. Their very existence challenges the role of women in the Islamic world

The name Khadaffy alone is something of a record for Arab League's longest ruling despot. Just lucky, thanks to Arabic transliteration there are an unbelievable 112 diff ways to spell it! For the record, the Colonel has spelled it two totally different ways in English - "Moammar El-Gadhafi" in a letter to a school in Minnesota and his website (currently intermittent)  says "Welcome to the official site of Muammar Al Gathafi" 

Aside from his 'toonish anime jackassedness, the Colonel penned an interesting piece about the Little Satan/Palestine conflict - advocating a one state solution called "Isratine" for NYT and shared empathy and sympathy for Great Satan on 911      

"...Irrespective of the conflict with America, it is a human duty to show sympathy with the American people and be with them at these horrifying and awesome events which are bound to awaken human conscience

And now, Colonel Khadaffy is reeling in open combat for the regime's survival. Deploying foreign mercs and killers to attack his own people in their own capitol, as his own ministers and military distance themselves or out right defect.

Colonel Khadaffy is a killer, a terrorist and an enemy of humanity. Ideally he should be captured, put on trial followed by a first class execution. Or killed at the first opportunity by any American or allied forces. 

Either way - just as good.
