“To My Dear Obama, Our Son” Gaddafi Says in Letter Defending Attacks

Libyan tyrant Colonel Muammar Gaddafi praised Barack Obama in February and acknowledged his Muslim descent.
It was not the first time he said that Obama was Muslim.

Gaddafi said the whole Arab world is ready to throw their financial support behind this Muslim candidate back in 2008.

YNet News reported:

Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi considers the US president a blessing to the Muslim world. In a speech published in London-based al-Hayat newspaper on Saturday, Gaddafi praised Barack Obama, called him a “friend” and said there is no longer any dispute between his country and the US.

Speaking in the Libyan city of Sirt at an event marking the 24th anniversary of an American attack on Libya, he said, “At the time, we were the target of the American cannon, the American navy challenged us in the gulf of Sirt and attacked us all along Libya’s shores. America tested Libya, and the Libyan people resisted the large country, but today, thank God, the difference is great.”

He said, “Now, ruling America is a black man from our continent, an African from Arab descent, from Muslim descent, and this is something we never imagined – that from Reagan we would get to Barakeh Obama.”

Yesterday, Gaddafi wrote Obama and it’s clear he has not lost any affection for the American president.
The Times of India reported:

Details of Gaddafi’s letters were released by the Libyan government spokesman at a news conference in Tripoli.

Defending his decision to attack rebel cities, Gaddafi told Obama, “Al Qaeda is an armed organisation, passing through Algeria, Mauritania and Mali. What would you do if you found them controlling American cities with the power of weapons? What would you do, so I can follow your example.”

Trying to strike a personal note, Gaddafi prefaced his letter saying, “To our son, his excellency, Mr Baracka Hussein Obama. I have said to you before, that even if Libya and the United States of America enter into a war, god forbid, you will always remain a son. Your picture will not be changed.”

That’s a bit odd, huh?
What a strange letter from the notorious tyrant to a US president… Maybe he still thinks Obama is Muslim?
