Gaddafi was a leader in the liberation struggle against the Global North’s imperialism.

It was Gaddafi who was sodomized with a bayonet. Wikipedia: Killing of Muammar Gaddafi

The NTC initially claimed Gaddafi died from injuries sustained in a firefight when loyalist forces attempted to free him, although a video of his last moments shows rebel fighters beating him and one of them sodomizing him with a bayonet before he was shot several times.

In typical US fashion, it fabricated atrocities as a pretext for regime change: 2011 Libyan rape allegations

Three women, loads of lies and the destruction of Libya

Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice and Samantha Power were the three principal advocates of war against Libya in 2011, setting the North African nation on a free fall ever since. Demonstrations broke out in some Libyan cities against the government of late Muammar Gaddafi in February 2011, in what became known as the “Arab Spring” that engulfed the region. However, Libya’s promised spring turned into a destructive autumn during which Gaddafi was murdered on 20 October, 2011, and Libya was left anguishing in lawlessness, courtesy of the three women.

The US does this all the time; it’s still doing it. The blueprint of regime change operations
