Muʿammar Muḥammad Abū Minyar ʿAbd al-Salām al-Qadhdhāfī, semplificato in lingua italiana come Mu'ammar Gheddafi , è stato un militare e politico libico.
Per quarantadue anni è stato la massima autorità della Libia, fino alla sua deposizione da parte del Consiglio nazionale di transizione durante la guerra civile libica del 2011, senza ricoprire stabilmente alcuna carica ufficiale ma fregiandosi soltanto del titolo onorifico di Guida e Comandante della Rivoluzione della Gran Giamahiria Araba Libica Popolare Socialista. Gheddafi è stato infatti la guida ideologica del colpo di stato militare che il 1º settembre 1969 portò alla caduta della monarchia del re Idris I di Libia e del suo successore Hasan.
Gheddafi instaurò dapprima una dittatura militare, poi, avvicinandosi al socialismo arabo di Gamal Abd el-Nasser, proclamò la "repubblica delle masse", basato sulla nuova ideologia, ispirata all'incontro tra Islam, socialismo e capitalismo, del libro verde. Gheddafi è stato catturato e ucciso senza un regolare processo dai ribelli del CNT e la sua morte ha segnato, almeno formalmente, la fine della guerra civile.

„La donna deve essere addestrata a combattere dentro le case, a preparare una cintura esplosiva e a farsi saltare in aria insieme coi soldati nemici. Chiunque abbia una macchina deve prepararla e sapere come si fa a sistemare l'esplosivo e a trasformarla in un'autobomba. Dobbiamo addestrare le donne a disporre esplosivi nelle macchine e a farle scoppiare in mezzo ai nemici, a far esplodere le case per farle crollare sui soldati nemici. Bisogna preparare trappole. Avete visto come il nemico controlla i bagagli: bisogna manipolare queste valige per farle esplodere quando loro le aprono. Si deve insegnare alle donne a minare gli armadi, le borse, le scarpe, i giocattoli dei bambini, in modo che scoppino sui soldati nemici.“

„Thus the working class turns out to be a separate society, showing the same contradictions as the old society.“
— Muammar Gaddafi
Context: Any class which becomes heir to a society, inherits, at the same time, its characteristics. That is to say that if the working class crushes all other classes, for instance, it becomes heir of the society, that is, it becomes the material and social base of the society. The heir bears the traits of the one he inherits from, though they may not be evident at once. As time passes, attributes of other eliminated classes emerge in the very ranks of the working class. And the possessors of those characteristics take the attitudes and points of view appropriate to their characteristics. Thus the working class turns out to be a separate society, showing the same contradictions as the old society.

„Libya is an African country. May Allah help the Arabs and keep them away from us. We don't want anything to do with them. They did not fight with us against the Italians, and they did not fight with us against the Americans. They did not lift the sanctions and siege from us. On the contrary, they gloated at us, and benefited from our hardship….“

„Your armed forces have toppled the reactionary, backward and corrupt regime. With one strike your heroic army has toppled idols and destroyed them in one of Providence's fateful moments. As of now Libya shall be free and sovereign, a republic under the name of the Libyan Arab Republic. No oppressed or deceived or wronged, no master and no slave; but free brothers in a society over which, God willing, shall flutter the banner of brotherhood and equality. And thus shall we build glory, revive heritage and avenge a wounded dignity. Sons of the Bedouins, sons of the desert, sons of the ancient cities, sons of the countryside, sons of the villages, the hour of work has struck and so let us forge ahead.“

Radio broadcast from Benghazi (1 September 1969), quoted in The Libyan Revolution: Its Origins and Legacy (2009) by Nicholas Hagger
„It was our hope that Libya with its revolution would become a model of freedom, popular democracy and a state free from oppression and injustice. However Libya became another conventional state, even a dictatorial or police state. This is deeply regrettable. We are not like that, nor do we want to be like that.“
