More quotes by Muammar al-Gaddafi
I have said to you before that even if Libya and the United States enter into war, God forbid, you will always remain my son, and I have all the love for you as a son, and I do not want your image to change with me.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
If a community of people wears white on a mournful occasion and another dresses in black, then one community would like white and dislike black and the other would like black and dislike white. Moreover, this attitude leaves a physical effect on the cells as well as on the genes in the body.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We can call it Isratine.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
I cannot recognise either the Palestinian state or the Israeli state. The Palestinians are idiots and the Israelis are idiots.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
Lincoln was a man who created himself from nothing without any help from outside or other people. I followed his struggles. I see certain similarities between him and me.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We can export terrorism. We can assassinate and set fires inside the territory of the United States as it did to all of us.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
I think Americans are good, but America will be taken over and destroyed from the inside by the Zionist lobby. The Americans do not see this. They are getting decadent. Zionists will use this to destroy them.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
The black people's struggle has vanquished racism. It was God who created colour. Today Obama, a son of Kenya, a son of Africa, has made it in the United States of America.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We will fight in every valley, in every street, in every oasis, and every town. We won't surrender again we are not women we will keep fighting.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We believe America is practicing all kinds of terrorism against Libya. Even the accusation that we are involved in terrorism is in itself an act of terrorism.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
The times of Arab nationalism and unity are gone forever. These ideas which mobilized the masses are only a worthless currency. Libya has had to put up with too much from the Arabs for whom it has poured forth both blood and money.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
All right, then nobody can complain if we ask pregnant women to make parachute jumps.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We are used to facing the United States as a fortress from the outside. Now we are finding a breach to penetrate the country (the U.S.) and confront it from within.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
The times of Arab nationalism and unity are gone forever.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
I have nothing but scorn for the notion of an Islamic bomb. There is no such thing as an Islamic bomb or a Christian bomb. Any such weapon is a means of terrorizing humanity, and we are against the manufacture and acquisition of nuclear weapons. This is in line with our definition of - and opposition to - terrorism.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
Popular congresses are the only means to achieve popular democracy. Any system of government other than popular congresses is undemocratic.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
The Lybian army is capable of destroying America and breaking its nose.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
[Somali maritime violence] is a response to greedy Western nations, who invade and exploit Somalia's water resources illegally. It is not a piracy, it is self defence. It is defending the Somalia children's food.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We have been terrorised by what happened in America and we express our condolences to the American people who suffered from this unexpected catastrophe and a new world war.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
We [Libyans] support the Palestinian resistance, and all the world supports this. We support their just cause, but we are against terrorism.
Muammar al-Gaddafi
