He cried, snapped blustered, the first time since protests began in Libya's dictator Gaddafi has appealed directly to the people. In a televised speech, he denounced the protesters as "rats" - and threatened them with brute force. The West is horrified. Tripoli - What a scene! What a bizarre appearance! Revolted against Libya Gaddafi - and then this response of the dictator, for the first time since the mass protests has been the head of state appealed directly to the people.
In a more than hour-long speech on state television in a bedouin shouted the brown cloak dictator dressed down his people. He clamored, scolded, struck with his fist around - and went so strange in historical analogies. He praised himself with over his voice as a bastion against colonialists, imperialists and Islamists, implored the glorious Libyan past, read passages as before in his Green Book - and smashed the audience will receive its central message: "I will not Libya to leave!" No, he would rather "die a martyr" as.
Promptly followed by a sharp warning to his opponents: "Lay down your weapons immediately, otherwise there is a massacre!" Libya would now "cleaned house by house," announced the revolutionary leader. The demonstrators denounced it as "rats" and threatened with a bloody crackdown on protests "like in Tiananmen Square in Beijing in 1989.
"I will fight to the last drop of my blood." While the country is in chaos, the Air Force to shoot demonstrators and should be several cities in the country already in the hands of the opposition, projecting itself as a mixture of Gaddafi realitätsfernem eccentric and furious father, running away to the children.
Emotional, endless and at times confused speeches are the Libyans from their dictator used to - but this performance was at this time a declaration of war against its own people. Also the place of his appearance was the program: the broken entrance of a residence in Tripoli, the U.S. fighter jets in 1986 had bombed.
Then 36 civilians were killed, including an adopted daughter of the despot. The choice of this place Gaddafi apparently wanted to weld together not only "his" people against external enemies - while it was a sign: Look, I've survived the attacks of the Americans, so I will survive this revolution.
Again and again in his speech, Gaddafi changed the subject, repeated, and began short breaks, then all the more vehement get started: to blame for the riots only a small group of sick "outsiders" who wanted to "copy" the riots in Tunisia and Egypt, be he snapped. Gaddafi seemed at times not only angry but also erratic.
Time, he recalled, such as Libya have fought against the United States and Britain, he said that the oil revenues had been left to the Libyan people. In the next sentence, he promised administrative reform has to come to him, his son Saif al-Islam. He had been the Army was not used against the protesters railed Gaddafi - but he'll do that when it was needed.
He loved to quote themselves by a combination of his Green Book, his revolutionary writing, read aloud: who rebel against the country risked the death penalty. Point. But he stressed, in the previously handle those killed are representatives of the security forces, "not young". Also, the calls for his resignation, he spoke: he had indeed no official post, he could withdraw from the Point. Gaddafi had bloodless coup in September 1969 in Libya to power and a few years later, the "state of the masses" was proclaimed. Since this theory in the self-governing and not a head of state needs to Gaddafi had never been officially call it - but always revolutionary leader - see the interactive timeline: On Wednesday Gaddafi called for "people's revolution".
"The Libyan people support me," he claimed. "Come out of your houses tomorrow, we have to take the streets." He called on the population: "Fight for Libya." The response to the Wutrede were clear: Observers in Europe were horrified. Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) described the speech as "very, very scary." This was the main reason the case because Gaddafi has virtually declared war on his own people.
" The news from Libya were "highly disturbing". Merkel called on the Libyan government to "immediately cease to use force against its own people" - otherwise, Germany would support sanctions against the country. Federal Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle (FDP) threatened Libya with sanctions.
Many countries start bailing on their citizens in Libya during the dictator tried to quell the protests, the rebellion on Tuesday extended from (minutes protocol of the day here). The information flow is still sparse, but reports have assumed a very brutal actions against the demonstrators.
The casualty figures are inconsistent since the protests began a week ago were human rights activists suggest that up to 400 people killed. The opposition is even out of 560 dead. Gaddafi loyal units should have been using in recent days, heavy weapons and warplanes. The news channel al-Arabiya reported on Tuesday, about 1,400 people were missing.
Gadhafi gets more and more pressure: Several cities, especially in the north-east of the country should now be under control of government opponents. In the second city of Benghazi to all military units have deserted, as the Paris-based International Human Rights Federation (FIDH) said.
But in other parts of the country were army units and security forces went over to the opposition, said high-ranking Libyan officials, who have gone to distance himself from Gaddafi, the news agency. In protest against violence after numerous ambassadors also announced several employees of the Libyan UN Mission in New York Gaddafi to follow suit.
In a statement they called on the Libyan army to topple the revolutionary leader. They accused him of "genocide" in front of his own people.
