An appropriate affront

Noy Alooshe, an Israeli journalist and musician, put together a brilliant spoof of Colonel Qaddafi on YouTube. It's the latest (and well-deserved) affront to the delusional Libyan strongman, reports the New York Times. Alooshe took Qaddafi’s televised speech last Tuesday (the discombobulated rant in which he vowed to hunt down protesters “inch by inch, house by house," etc) and turned it into a "trance party" clip. Evidently, the Arab world loves it and the video, an instant classic, has gone viral on the Web. It's a late entry, but Mr. Alooshe deserves an honorary Oscar. Check out the clip here.
