Gaddafi was a barefoot Bedouin boy with NO education. He was in fact a lot like Trump.. very vindictive whenever he made a fool of himself like drinking the rosewater out of a finger bowl at a state dinner. He go on the warpath threatening to assassinate other Arab leaders.
Gaddafi threw out the Libyan Constitution which was very enlightened. Shut down Wheelus and Tobruk and crashed the Libyan oil business when he nationalized it prematurely.
Like Trump he took credit for all the successful programs developed by Idris.
