#1 Problem is for him, not all the oilfields are under his control -- nor are sufficient pipelines unless he has some gotterdamerung style suicide types stashed someplace. And as Kuwait showed, those fields can be put back into production very quickly.

#2 Who cares? Eat sand, old spiteful angry man. You will die and your people will praise your passing -- and their children will have the oil.

Die now, and save them the trouble of killing you.

#3 IIUC, IOW Qhaddafy = Gaddafi, etc. is demanding to be invaded and saved by the US-NATO, implying that, widout Him + Regime, LIBYUH WILL DENIGRATE OR REGRESS BACKWARDS TOWARDS ANTI-MODERATE, ANTI-DEMOCRATIC, ANTI-US, ISRAEL RADICALISM, espec in support for Old-Order REGIONAL, INTERNAT TERROR GROUPS.

This may not end well for the US-Allies, as it was Uncle Muammar whom unilater gave up Libya's Nucprogs + other in return for being taken off the US-International Terror Lists.

* FOX NEWS AM > GLENN BECK SHOW [paraph] - the US is being to choose between TWO COMPETING EGOMANIACAL EVILS - COLD WAR-ERA STRONGMEN WHOM WERE ENEMIES BUT NOW ARE ALLIED OR NEUTRALIST, VERSUS THE LIKELY FALSE PRO-DEMOCRATIC FACADE OF ANTI-US-WEST-ISRAEL, DEDIC FUTURE? ENEMY + OWG CALIPHATE-HAPPY RADICAL ISLAM E.G MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD???

The One whom wanted to destroy us in the not-s-distant Past, versus the One whom will destroy us in the not-so-distant Future.

Clearly someone needs a'Taserin.

* ION NEWSMAX > MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD OBJECTIVE:
GLOBAL ISLAMIC STATE.

#4 The tribal turbans are making the same bluff. Their target audience is the multi-nationals.
If I can't ~~sell you oil~~ love you...nobody can.
