  • 0:03 - 0:05
    In the name of God the merciful
  • 0:05 - 0:08
    These are the martyrs
  • 0:08 - 0:11
    Look at their end, how they are buried. From Zawiya.
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    In Khnefis. They threw them here and dumped sand on them
  • 0:25 - 0:29
    Thank God that they dumped sand on them
  • 0:32 - 0:35
    There are those who were not even buried properly
  • 0:35 - 0:37
    His hand is sticking out. There's some with a hand sticking out.
  • 0:42 - 0:43
    Wait. Look.
  • 0:46 - 0:49
    This is the hand of a human being
  • 0:49 - 0:50
    This is the hand of a martyr
  • 0:50 - 0:56
    This is his end, this is what the end looks like.
  • 0:58 - 1:02
    There is no power but in God
  • 1:02 - 1:05
    There's a stomach
  • 1:05 - 1:08
    His hand.
  • 1:17 - 1:23
    Look, the flies are eating him. This is against God's words.
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    Where is Zawiya? Where is it?
  • 1:25 - 1:27
    It looks like there are no real men left in Zawiya, with my respect to some people
  • 1:27 - 1:30
    I swear, there are no men left.
  • 1:30 - 1:35
    They've thrown a stone or two over them, and they say these are martyrs graves
  • 1:35 - 1:38
    This is the one who wants to enter history, Zawiya. No, he has entered history early, by God.
  • 1:39 - 1:42
    Clap and sing, Gaddafi said
  • 1:42 - 1:48
    This is Gaddafi. A mass grave, look how far it extends
  • 1:48 - 1:53
    These are human beings. This sand you see near me, where there is no grass, these are humans thrown here
  • 1:53 - 1:55
    and they've dumped buckets of sand on them
  • 1:55 - 1:57
    They didn't even dig holes for them
  • 1:57 - 2:00
    They didn't even dig
  • 2:00 - 2:04
    There is no power but in God, who could accept this?
  • 2:04 - 2:09
    Look. Humans thrown here, with sand thrown over them
  • 2:09 - 2:10
    They didn't even level the sand
  • 2:10 - 2:17
    There is no God but God
  • 2:21 - 2:26
    Humans, thrown here with sand over them
  • 2:26 - 2:29
    God bless you for throwing the sand on them.
  • 2:29 - 2:32
    That you didn't throw them in the sea
  • 2:32 - 2:34
    I swear to God
  • 2:34 - 2:37
    As for Zawiya, it looks like there are no men left, or I don't know
  • 2:37 - 2:43
    Wake up, what are you waiting for? Isn't this a Libyan?
  • 2:43 - 2:46
    Isn't he Libyan? Maybe he's Jewish, Israeli and we don't know? There is no power but in God.
  • 2:46 - 2:54
    Don't think that I am inciting anything. One of these people under the sand is my brother
  • 2:54 - 2:59
    and I don't know where he is, it's unknown where he is. I swear to you, we don't know
  • 2:59 - 3:01
    They said he was buried in the martyrs gravesite
  • 3:01 - 3:06
    In the martyrs square in Zawiya, in the centre of the city
  • 3:06 - 3:09
    His end is in Khnefis, with sand thrown over him and the dogs eating him
  • 3:09 - 3:14
    Is this good? Do you accept this?
  • 3:14 -
    God forgive you, is all I can say
