I could practically hear Muammar Gaddafi(we're going with the "G" version today) scoff at this today:
In The Hague, International Criminal Court prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo said Gaddafi and members of his inner circle, could be investigated for alleged crimes committed since the uprising broke out in mid-February.
"We have identified some individuals in the de facto or former authority who have authority over the security forces who allegedly committed the crimes," Moreno-Ocampo said.
"They are Muammar Gaddafi, his inner circle including some of his sons, who had this de facto authority. There are also some people with formal authority who should pay attention to crimes committed by their people."
A donut has a better chance of sneaking past Michael Moore than the ICC has of getting its hands on Gaddafi. At this point I see only three scenarios for how this will end for him and his inner circle:
- They beat down the rebels and stay. Somebody will buy their oil.
- They've squirreled away enough money to flee to Venezuela or Cuba and live out their days.
- They're dead.
If there's a #4 that's realistic let me know, because I don't see it.
