        Where was Kofi Annan when they were killing Col. Gaddafi? He was one of the strongest leaders.

        You are one of the facumitators of the mess the world in is now. You were one of the weakest leaders ever.

        It's so unfortunate that Mr Annan is realising the problem now. Bad leadership in Africa started at Independence
