Was Gadaffi elected by popular mandate?
Did he allow free and fair elections?
Did he allow free press?
Did he allow freedom of sexuality, religion etc (the Universal Declaration of Human Rights basically)
If not, then all the other stuff doesn't make up for it. If it is was Obama giving all these things, you'd say he was controlling the masses with material wealth. Gadaffi was a dictator who robbed his country's resources and oppressed his people. Whatever the motives of the western powers who assisted the Libyan people in his downfall, good riddance.
