Stratfor is one of the best sources of intelligence in the world. They cited a report from Sky News claiming that Gadhafi was last sighted on the afternoon of Friday August 26 in South Tripoli. The source is an alleged body guard.
It is strange that the media is not giving more attention to this. The report that I cited from Zimbabwe's Movement For Democratic Change Party gave a reliable citing first at the Harare Airport and then at one of President Mugabe's mansions in the Harare area later that day. It is fascinating that the Zimbabwe media is silent on this sighting. If ,in fact Gadhafi was not there, they would have been issuing denials going all the way to President Mugabe. Silence can be interpreted as acknowledging the truthfulness of the report. It is also fascinating that the normally lively South african media is silent on reports that Gadhafi is in Zimbabwe.
Another piece of the puzzle is the fact that two of Gadhafi's son, a daughters and his wife made a land crossing at the Libya-Algeria border. Why wasn't Gadhafi with them? The answer is simple and obvious. Gadhafi knew he was a target of NATO jets and Special Operations teams ordered to kill him. If he was caught, his family members might have been killed with him. He left them hiding elsewhere. When he had a safe place to go, he told them to join him.
This morning the Libyan rebels asked that the Gadhafi family members be extradited back to Libya. I suspect they are already in Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe is a perfect place for him to seek sanctuary. President Mugabe and his generals will protect him from extradition. They would also protect him from an possible kidnapping attempts by western powers and mercenaries. President Mugabe is not doing this out of the kindness of his heart. He is literally getting paid millions of dollars for this help.
