After struggling to turn Khadafy’s insane ramblings at the UN into English for 75 minutes, the Libyan dictator’s personal interpreter got lost in translation.
"I just can’t take it any more", Khadafy’s interpreter shouted ito the live microphone – in Arabic.
At that point, the U.N.’s Arabic section chief, Rasha Ajalyaqeen, took over and translated the final 20 minutes of the speech.

Why do we give these egotistical maniacs an audience?????
Beats me...it's politically correct to love dictators and those who want to destroy our way of life??
