By Shafiq Morton – Benghazi
Ajdabiya district, eastern city and opposition stronghold, will get bombed during the night. Well, landing a shell in the city. Not much damage, but plenty of fear.
We all know, there is worse to come.
And that is precisely how Gaddafi like it: raw terror. Here is a man who has no respect for his people, a man who is bombing them from the air with the former Soviet Union supplied fighter aircraft.
With its larger than the African continent ego deals with a a modern Pharaoh. Forget about Islam and the third universal theory or the Green Book.
Gaddafi is about itself. He is his own first God. Gaddafi is God. Traitors are these misguided who do not worship at his feet.
Except that this time his bullied topics are no longer frightened him. After 42 years the miserable is tired of being beaten, tortured, burned and killed.
His poor, dusty and undeveloped Libya-a country which should be as rich and convenient as any State Gulf oil will be reduced to ash.
And like so many Libyans have told me; Gaddafi take care not if he ends of a conviction leading to a blank State. He continues to just killing and murder. He has done it in four decades, so why stop now?
The fact that each Government building, all facilities, security, every Army Barracks and each Gaddafian pleasure palace has been purified from Tobruk to Tripoli is irrelevant for him.
The Libyan population has finally risen and said ' no ' with a resounding vote means only him, that they are disobedient movable property, which must be punished.
A doctor who used to be a part of Gaddafi's personal medical staff tells us that the Libyan leader, with the exception of dabbling in the Jewish kabbalah and occult-suffering from asthma, increased blood pressure and insomnia.
Another medical man, Dr. Zaruh Nabus Harawi Hospital in Benghazi, believe that the brother leader is schizophrenic.
"I've seen dictators and Gaddafi is not a dictator," he says, "he is schizophrenic."
We see the real measure of Gaddafi when we visit Katib al-Fadil security compound in the coastal city of Benghazi. It is, how many died during the uprising, Gaddafi's African mercenaries shooting unarmed civilians with anti-aircraft guns.
Personal injuries and fatal accidents was horrific. ACK ACK gun fire shells with explosive heads. Dr. Nabus ' eyes fill with tears. He says that it was heartbreaking to collect body parts from the road.
Katib al-Fadil, a history of being a Libyan epic.
It is unlikely hero is Mahdi Zeiw, a mild-mannered oil engineer. Born year Gaddafi overthrew King Idris, Zeiw put two domestic gas cylinders in his car and carried out a detonator from fisheries explosives. He then ran into the gates, blowing them open.
It was a turning point for the Benghazi and Katib al-Fadil decreased by approximately 200 mercenaries fled to neighbouring villages Maghouri and Algouarsh, where some were taken prisoner.
I hear by more than one source, Zeiw was not an extremist or fanatic. Libyans, as I have learned, not that way inclined.
Dr. Nabus says that it was an accumulation of grief, anger and frustration boiling as a volcano, which saw him do what he did.
"He just could not take children will be killed".
We drive into compound feedingstuffs, walls 4-metre breach sites. All buildings, including Gaddafi's place of residence, have been purified. Wreck of burned out cars and army vehicles are strewn everywhere.
We are led to a small building, the word "prison" sprayed on the walls. We enter through his ripped off doors and discover a massive Chamber.
It is gloomy inside and big enough to park a Mac truck. Leading away from the main hall is two rooms. They are dark, and only via a mobile phone light we can see inside.
I trøde first, that I look at an ammunition dump. But Benserti of Benghazi's Seraj 17 February Media Center, tells me that when they broke into the compound they had heard banks and screaming coming from the Earth.
"We found 20 live prisoners down here," he said. This had been an ammunition dump, but a Dungeon, where humans had been locked in total darkness.
Were these fingernail scratches in one wall? None of us spent enough time in this hell hole to find out.
Benserti points to a number of craters in compound feedingstuffs. They are, where the demonstrators had searched for a number of Chambers.
"We used bulldozers to search for entries, but we could not find any as warders had fled," he said.
He noted that not even the soldiers guarding outside Khatib ul-Fadil knew what horrors were committed behind its walls.
"We gold salmon rotting bodies but could not find them," said Benserti, adding that they had found more equal most burned beyond recognition.
Dr. Musbach Abdullah, an anesthetist shows me a video at the hotel later in the evening. In it repeals a man charred body such as the guerrilla fighting in his hands.
Then it is that I think of an explanation for me earlier in the day Dr Nabus:
"The difference between the tsunami in Japan and Libya is that Libya's killing fields may be stopped".
