Gaddafi parodies are parodies that put the embattled dictator of Libya, Muammar al-Gaddafi in a similar position to Hitler; his brutal regime collapsing around him, and Gaddafi ranting about it. As with the Hitler and Stalin Parodies, they involve false subtitles being used over Gaddafi's speeches in which he rants.
Origins
The Gaddafi parodies begain in February (and are ongoing) since the 2011 Libyan Civil War began. Gaddafi appeared on television ranting like a maniac and blaming the uprising on drugged youths, al-Qaeda, criminals, and other ridiculous explanations. The eccentric nature of his speech (fist pumping, clothing, etc) and his lengthy ranting gave parody makers excellent material to make parodies from, which they did. Hitlerrantsparodies in particular made use of this, having Hitler call Gaddafi to request he "piss off", to which Gaddafi refused. He has also had Gaddafi interviewed by Hitler, among other parodies. Briefly, a parody-channel called Gaddafirantsparodies was established by two Untergangers, but closed later.
Depictions of Gaddafi
Gaddafi has been depicted commonly (by parody makers such as HRP and Benad361) as a mad, delusional, enemy of Hitler, whom tries to defeat Hitler, and vice versa (Benad361 had Hitler eliminate Gaddafi and trigger a war). He is depicted in practically all parodies as a delusional, ranting maniac with few allies. However, some Untergangers (such as Gagislobista) support Gaddafi, and have made parodies that depict him in a good light (such as killing Justin Bieber, or using his Fist of Mass Destruction).
Benad361's Depictions
Unterganger Benad361 has greatly expanded the Gaddafi parodies, creating him a limited parodies crew, and active involvement in many of his parodies, as well as an insight into how the Gaddafi parodies crew works.
Gaddafi parodies crew so far (In Benad361 parodies)
The Gaddafi parodies crew so far, are all children of Gaddafi:
- Saif al-Islam Gaddafi - Gaddafi's answer to Jodl (since he is bald and frequently objects).
- Khamis al-Gaddafi - Gaddafi's answer to Fegelein (he has already committed an antic, involving sabotaging his Father's bedoin tent).
- Aisha al-Gaddafi - Gaddafi's answer to Traudl (who can also rant very well).
