MailOnline is a British website (for the Daily Mail) that really has the profuse use of photos and videos down to an art. THIS POST on the final moments alive of Libyan dictator Colonel Muammar el-Qaddafi really is a classic — but not for the squeamish. It’s almost a class case of someone how behaved like he was in the gutter returning to the gutter, a dictator who seemed so brave when he ordered the murder of thousands of his countrymen over the years, in the end, begging for his life and not getting his wish.
