Libya, Friday, June 28, 1996.
2
Muammar Gaddafi, guide of the Libyan revolution, awakens in the luxurious bedroom of one of his numerous villas.
3
It is 8 a.m and like every morning, Gaddafi has a hard time getting up.
4
As opposed to Stalin's austere life, he is totally dominated by his impulses and suffers from numerous addictions, mind altering drugs, alcohol and sex.
5
But at 54, his body is wearing down, having been subjected to every kind of excess for far too long.
6
As a result, it is increasingly difficult for him to maintain his self-control in public.
7
People are frequently perplexed by his erratic behavior.
8
Later on judged him unstable.
9
Ronald Reagan referred to him as a mad dog, and to Anwar al-Sadat, he was just plain crazy.
10
Nevertheless, it is this sex maniac and drug addict who rules Libya with an iron fist.
11
For 27 years, he's been systematically plundering his country's wealth, beginning by confiscating the colossal oil and gas revenues,
12
and then appropriating all big business concerns and redistributing them to his entourage.
13
Today, although he is one of the richest men in the world, his home is half buried underground, surrounded by bulletproof walls and watchtowers,
14
with soldiers standing guard 24 hours a day.
15
Not only is part of this residence underground, but it is also hidden inside the perimeter of an ultra-secure compound, Bab-Alazizia, which covers six square kilometers.
16
An entire city within a city, located in the heart of Tripoli, a huge area surrounded by walls, a veritable modern fortress.
17
He is not a police officer.
18
Muhammad Gliwon, Gaddafi's personal cameraman, is part of the dictator's innermost circle.
19
and the house of the house.
20
The house of my family.
21
And even within this fortress, the exact location of Gaddafi's home is kept a secret.
22
fear became an obsession with Gaddafi after the Americans bombed his palace in 1986.
23
Suspected of funding many terrorist attacks around the world that resulted in hundreds of victims, he became public enemy number one.
24
Since then, he has lived constantly on Since then, he has lived constantly on the alert, like a fugitive inside his own country.
25
But now, in 1996, Gaddafi is threatened by a new enemy, the National Front for the Liberation of Libya,
26
comprised of armed Islamist groups that are based in the desert and have declared war on him.
27
Gaddafi takes this threat very seriously.
28
They are Salafists, suspected of being linked with Al-Qaeda.
29
He has already had hundreds of them arrested and imprisoned in Abu Salim prison.
30
Living conditions there are horrendous.
31
Fatih Saad was imprisoned there during that time.
32
For 12 years he witnessed what the prisoners had to undergo.
33
The natural type of type is to make you a threat with a threat,
34
with the smoke, with the two hands on the floor, and you stay all day together with your hands.
35
The reason is that you sleep on the floor without a slant,
36
and you will have to eat the water during the night.
37
This is the same.
38
I'm sure you're not sure.
39
I'm sure you're not sure.
40
The conditions inside were really brutal.
41
The jail cells were overcrowded.
42
The people who died were often left in the cells for days.
43
And torture was institutional.
44
People felt like there was no way out, that they were buried alive in this prison
45
and they felt like they were in a prison where the keys had been thrown away.
46
This Friday, June 28th, the prisoners can't take any more.
47
They have reached their limit.
48
For days, dead bodies have been left to rot inside their cells.
49
They have nothing to lose.
50
Today, Gaddafi will soon have to deal with a completely unprecedented situation.
51
In 27 years of absolute power, he has never had to face the kind of massive revolt that is about to break out at Abu Salim.
52
This date will never be forgotten in the bloody history of Libya under Gaddafi's rule.
53
It's 11 a.m in Bab al-Azizia.
54
Gaddafi is in his bathroom preparing to start the day.
55
Several young women are in attendance, taking care of his every need.
56
They take his blood pressure daily, they massage him, apply makeup, and dye his hair to cover the bald spots.
57
But at 54, Gaddafi can't abide the premature aging of his face, marked by excesses of every sort,
58
and which bears no resemblance to the young man who took power 25 years ago.
59
At that time, the international press had referred to him as the Arab Kennedy.
60
And his good looks had played an essential part in his popularity and success.
61
But he can't count on his seductive charms any longer.
62
A few weeks ago, he underwent plastic surgery for the first time.
63
It took place in the middle of the night in a high-security clinic built in a bunker underneath his house.
64
The surgeon was Brazilian, not one Libyan was present, and Gaddafi refused a general anesthesia.. in order to remain conscious during the operation.
65
He killed Saddam was an Egyptian.
66
He was afraid that a Libyan would kill him.
67
That's one of the reasons he didn't have Libyan in the bunker.
68
I think he didn't want anesthesia.
69
All his life, Gaddafi would continue to have plastic surgery...
70
...performed without a general anesthesia.
71
Obsessed with his image, Gaddafi is constantly reinventing himself according to the political role he wishes to play.
72
Soldier of the revolution.
73
Patron of international terrorism.
74
Self-proclaimed leader of the Arab countries.
75
And even African king of kings.
76
There is no limit to his arrogance and megalomania.
77
He was able to get a car and get a car to the car.
78
Just for the car, just for the show.
79
He was a person who felt a little bit.
80
I noticed that this guy doesn't have any better than him.
81
The old man who lived here was a cause of his own personal career.
82
He was very proud of his life.
83
This man lived a long time in his life.
84
He was very proud of his life.
85
He was born from this man.
86
And we will see him born from him daily.
87
Gaddafi came from a Bedouin family.
88
They lived in a tent in a desert area near the town of Sirte, a region considered almost uninhabitable where young Muammar tended the goats.
89
His father worked as a servant for a powerful family.
90
They were considered second-class Libyans.
91
Gaddafi would never forget that.
92
His cousin, Said Gaddafi al-Dham, shared the misery of his childhood.
93
Well, tribe, those days, respect the strong, and the rich.
94
He was not strong and not rich and he had a tough,
95
hard life in the beginning.
96
I think this is one of the reasons he makes against the people after, the whole society.
97
It's deep inside.
98
It's his personality.
99
When he was only ten, Gaddafi decided to escape the poverty in his family's life and go to school in the city.
100
He climbed on a truck and arrived in Sirte.
101
Alone and destitute, he slept outside and survived on dates and survived on dates.
102
When he returned to his village a few years later, he returned as a hero.
103
He had become Colonel Qaddafi, the man who had just led the revolution and freed his people from the monarchy of old King Idris, who had reigned for 52 years.
104
From the start, Qaddafi knew how to play up that childhood scenario to his advantage, arranging interviews with his family for Libyan television programs,
105
later to be picked up by foreign networks where he played
106
the humble man who owes everything to his strong character and to his courage. and continue to study.
107
The little desert shepherd had become one of the richest men in the world.
108
Like Stalin, every day Gaddafi signs the lists of people who are sentenced to prison or to death.
109
He tolerates no argument.
110
He used to say, all those who oppose the regime, and especially the Islamists, must be treated like cockroaches and deserve to be eradicated without trial.
111
For example, he was a picture of the image.
112
He said he was a rat.
113
He said he was a rat.
114
He said he was a judge.
115
He was a judge.
116
He was a judge.
117
He was a judge.
118
He was a judge.
119
From the moment he took power, he put in place a brutally repressive regime.
120
But it was in 1984, after barely escaping an attempted assassination,
121
that he decided to televise the trials and public executions so as to terrify the entire population.
122
The first of these trials was
123
that of this young student being judged before an enraged crowd and whose only crime was to have studied abroad.
124
I am the shawaii.
125
I am the mate.
126
I am the American.
127
A mock tribunal accuses him of having made contact with figures of the opposition in the United States, and even to have trained in Morocco to prepare an assassination attempt on Qaddafi.
128
Hoping to save his life, the student confesses to everything, but as in all corrupt trials, the result is a foregone conclusion.
129
It's an event that shocked every Libyan, because I think it's at that moment that they understood
130
just how far the Gaddafi regime was willing to go to instill terror into their own people.
131
The entire population felt threatened, even people at the highest level.
132
And so, who will be in the eyes of Qaddafi, will be able to say the curse of the prison, the torture and the death of the people.
133
And yet Qaddafi had been a young revolutionary who rose to
134
power at the age of 27 as the defender of great causes.
135
To unify the Arab countries, to free Libya from foreign occupation by nationalizing the oil companies.
136
To restore independence and pride to his country, the Libyans saw him as the great liberator, another Nasser.
137
Like Stalin and Amin Dada, building national pride and achieving greater social justice were the two main themes that served to consolidate his power.
138
I was born in the world of peace, peace, peace, love, and love.
139
And I started to look at my thoughts.
140
It was a simple thought.
141
So, everyone, I was in the world of peace.
142
But the honeymoon with his people is soon over.
143
Now he is afraid of his people.
144
He can't even stand being touched by them.
145
And when he is obliged to mingle with the crowds while pretending to enjoy it, he hits his bodyguards if they let anyone come too close.
146
When they were killed, they were afraid to kill them.
147
They were attacking the enemy, so they were attacking these people.
148
Every time they were attacking, they were attacking them.
149
Gaddafi has lost all contact with his people.
150
Now he only communicates with them on television.
151
Today, as he does several times each week, each week, he is getting ready to record one of his interminable speeches, which has most Libyans yawning.
152
But at last,
153
when he is about to begin, his secretary interrupts him with the news that a revolt has just broken out at Abu Salim prison.
154
Gaddafi doesn't take the alert seriously.
155
Abu Salim is an ultra-high security prison, and he is confident that his powerful police force can put down the rebellion.
156
But what is happening in the prison is far worse than he thinks.
157
They gave them a treatment for the prisoners.
158
They were even a gun.
159
When they opened the door, they opened the door and opened the door. in the Rasa.
160
Qadhafi has no idea that at this very instant, what is happening in the prison will cause endless repercussions until the day he dies.
161
Just three hours after it began, the Abu Salim prison revolt has exploded out of control, but Gaddafi still hasn't realized how grave the situation is.
162
He returns to his room where one of his victims awaits him.
163
These women come from all levels of society.
164
They are taken from their families and brought before the supreme guide without anyone daring to protest.
165
They are abused, made to endure the worst humiliations and often beaten.
166
In 1983, Gaddafi created a military academy reserved for women whom he called his Amazons.
167
They were supposed to represent one aspect of modern Libya, the guide's liberation of women.
168
They are his personal guard and surround him during all his public appearances.
169
In In fact, these Amazons constitute a gigantic harem of more than 400 young women at the dictator's disposal.
170
But that is not enough for him.
171
and all the children who sent them to the hospital, they were married.
172
They were able to put them in a place like a student in the church, a family, and they were able to get them.
173
A problem for Qadhafi arose when a girl became pregnant.
174
To discreetly solve this, he had a clinic built in the basement of the university where abortions could be performed.
175
And the house was a house.
176
A house was a house.
177
With many houses, with the house, with the kitchen and the kitchen.
178
And the house was close to us.
179
We were looking at this place a day, a year ago.
180
We didn't see anything. In this
181
way, hundreds of women were raped by Gaddafi, by his sons, and even by his men.
182
Inside the concealed camp, underneath his fortified villa,
183
Qaddafi has had a nuclear bomb shelter constructed along with a network of 40 km of tunnels, all buried 6 meters below the surface.
184
A veritable underground city with bedrooms,
185
salons, sports facilities, a clinic and a television studio a clinic and a television studio.
186
Television is his principal tool of propaganda, and he supervises all the programs himself.
187
While he is viewing one of his speeches, taped a few hours earlier, his brother-in-law, Abdullah Sanousi, chief of intelligence, arrives to announce the bad news news.
188
More than a thousand prisoners have ransacked Abu Salim prison.
189
Using sledgehammers they forced open the cells in buildings three and four.
190
They're on the verge of escaping and the guards can no longer contain them.
191
Abu Salim consists of four buildings.
192
Fatih Saad, a prisoner in building one where the doors remained closed, describes what happened.
193
Qaddafi orders that the prisoners who did not escape be evacuated, and orders Senussi to hold off the rioters.
194
The evacuation would take all night.
195
Gaddafi awaits confirmation that buildings one and two have been evacuated.
196
Sunnusi, chief of intelligence, phones him.
197
The evacuation has been completed.
198
All the prisoners that have rioted in buildings three and four are now massed in the courtyard.
199
They are enraged.
200
The situation is explosive.
201
There's no time to lose.
202
Gaddafi orders the execution of the 1,270 prisoners.
203
It is 8.30.
204
Positioned on top of the prison roofs, the soldiers begin firing at the trapped prisoners.
205
Suddenly, a military force arrived and literally started shooting into the prison,
206
killing over 1,200 prisoners in a massacre that took hours.
207
This was not something that was just over in a few minutes.
208
They kept shooting and shooting and shooting till just about everybody in these two wards were dead.
209
Ultimately, Gaddafi's own demise is very much linked to that decision to commit a massacre at Abu Salim.
210
Because that is the spark which set off the revolution in 2011.
211
In fact, in February 2011, at the height of the Arab Spring, the mothers, sisters and widows of the men killed at Abu Salim take to the streets,
212
demanding to know the exact truth about the circumstances of the massacre.
213
The police intervene and fire at the crowd, which unleashes the first violent confrontations and the beginning of a revolution throughout Libya that would rage for nine months.
214
And would end with the lynching of Gaddafi by his own people.
215
The New Testament The New Testament The New Testament The New Testament The New Testament The New Testament Years earlier,
216
in one of his texts, Gaddafi had written, How I love the freedom of crowds, Their enthusiastic spirit, After their chains are cast off,
217
When they burst out with a cry of joy and sing, Instead of wailing in sorrow.
218
But how I fear and mistrust them, But how I fear and mistrust them, and how cruel they are when they are angry.
219
They plotted against Hannibal and made him drink poison.
220
They burned Savonarola at the stake, sent Danton to the guillotine, fractured Rubespierre's jaw, dragged Mussolini's body through the streets,
221
spit in Richard Nixon's face.
222
He dies at the age of 69 after having reigned over Libya for 42 years.
