Muammar Muhammad al-Gaddafi[3] (Arabic: مُعَمَّر القَذَّافِي Muʿammar al-Qaḏḏāfī audio (help·info))[variations] (born 7 June 1942) is a Libyan revolutionary and political strongman. Gaddafi became head of state by removing King Idris in a bloodless coup.[4] His 41 years in power prior to the outbreak of the 2011 Libyan Civil War made him one of the longest-serving non-royal rulers in history, as well as the longest-serving Arab leader.[5]Gaddafi ruled Libya with a unique political philosophy termed the Third International Theory. His approach rejected capitalism and communism, and was based on ideals of Arab nationalism and socialism. In 1979, he stated that Libya was a direct democracy and relinquished the title of prime minister. He has since been called the "Brother Leader and Guide of the Revolution".[6][7] During his rule, he took active measures to influence foreign governments, supporting paramilitary organizations and terrorists. The United Nations called Libya under Gaddafi a pariah state, and the United States held Libya on its list of states sponsoring terrorism from 1979 to 2006.[8][9] Gaddafi had a strong interest in geo-political control, and was a firm supporter of OAPEC and led a Pan-African campaign for a United States of Africa.[10] After the 1986 bombing of Libya and the subsequent 1993 imposition of United Nations (UN) sanctions, Gaddafi established closer economic and security relations with the West; cooperating with investigations into alleged Libyan acts of state-sponsored terrorism (subsequently paying compensation) and ending his nuclear weapons program, which resulted in the lifting of UN sanctions in 2003.
In early February 2011, Gaddafi's government faced major political protests following in the wake of demonstrations in Tunisia, Egypt, and other parts of the Arab world. The protests quickly turned into a civil war. Gaddafi vowed to "die a martyr" if necessary in his fight against rebels and external forces, saying that those rebelling against his government deserved to die.[11][12][13] Since then he has lost control of most of eastern Libya, as well as large parts of the west.
On 27 June 2011 the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant against Gaddafi for crimes against humanity.[14][15]
On 20 August, the rebellion against his rule reached Tripoli, with a large uprising taking place in parts of the capital, posing a serious threat to his regime.[16] Gaddafi was reported to have fled from the capital.
