Photo Essay: How Qaddafi Got His Groove Back
Page 5 of 18

Green revolution: Qaddafi’s unusual ideology is most concretely laid out in his Green Book, written in the mid-1970s and found today in several languages, including Russian, Arabic, and English. With it, Qaddafi sought to create a nation of “Green Minds,” believing in Third Universal Theory, or Jamahiriya, an odd mix of Islam and populist democracy. “Countries like the United States, India, China, the Russian Federation are in bad need of this Jamahiriya system,” he advised in 2006.
