Thats all I got at the moment , just on BBC news site .
The question for me at the moment is was it targeted or he was in the wrong place at the wrong time .
If it was targeted then this is a real turn in events , not sure we signed up for this , it could set a dangerous president for future humanitarian interventions .

They killed Gaddafi's Grand-sons, how old were they? Did it say? I wish his son wouldnt have went on TV saying they would fight until death. I hope they werent children.

how nice that we have gone from pretending we are a freedom-loving, peaceful nation to acknowledging that we are a fascist, war-mongering, globalist tool of destruction that will assassinate anybody that stands in the way of the global corporate slave state...

The article said it was a massive attack, and yet:

"The leader with his wife was there in the house with other friends and relatives, the leader himself is in good health, he wasn't harmed."

My question then: is he alive and unharmed or is he dead and this a false claim?

This is odd....

Saif al-Arab was reported to have had defected to the rebels and had fought with the "Libyan people's Army" (the Army of the rebels...)

Now he has wound up dead in his fathers house?

Hmmmm....

Wow, I hadnt thought about that. Maybe they dont want to say he is dead to keep the war going.

Are you sure that Saif al-Arab joined the rebels? Where did you here that? In Benghazi? We are sure killing lots of Rebels. It makes me wonder what is actually going on over there.

This doesnt make sense, since first he declared a Full-scale Attack on Rebels, then joins them?

They also hit a school for children with down syndrome.

Luckily there were no children at the school when the missile hit.

On the Wiki article about the man. Gives links to some news reports from Iran and other "non western" outlets hinting he and the men he was sent to Benghazi with to crush the rebels had in fact defected. To be honest, that was the first I had heard of it myself, but raised my eyebrow enough to warrant a healthy amount of sceptisism about this alledged attack that killed him.

Gaddafi's youngest son did join the rebel forces. Here's the article.
