The theatrical Muammar Gaddafi, the leader of (his) United States of Africa, speaking in Rome yesterday:
“The Africans do not have problems of political asylum. People who live in the bush, and often in the desert, don’t have political problems. They don’t have oppositions or majorities or elections.” “These are things that only people who live in cities know. [Other Africans] don’t even have an identity. And I don’t mean a political identify; they don’t even have a Âpersonal identity. They come out of the bush and they say: ‘In the north, there’s money, there’s wealth’ – and so they go to Libya, and from there to Europe.”
