Captured, captured, captured, asylum, travel ban? I suppose the last two could be the figureheads of a Gaddafi revival if they were allowed by foreign militaries

How likely is it these folk'll want a woman in charge, though? Even if she is a Gaddafi.

Figureheads aren't usually in charge, they're just figureheads to lend legitimacy to the real rulers

For our coming elections in March, a new record of 81(!) political parties have registered to take part. While it is expected that not all 81 will manage end up on the election list, it's still... A lot.

There are precedent of the daugther of previous leader leading Muslim countries.

Meanwhile in Berlin, 7 refugees aged 15-21, of whom 6 Syrians and 1 Libyan, have been arrested on suspicion on setting fire to a homeless man.
It's already being called the 'anti-christmas carol of 2016'.

A 37-year old homeless man was sleeping on a bench in the subway station Schönleistrasse, when the group of seven lit him on fire.
His clothes burning, the man was saved from a fiery death by a U-bahn employee and bystanders.

The police immediatly shared video stills from the suspects with the general public, which prompted 6 out of 7 perpetrators to report themselves to the police.
The 7th was arrested later by officers in civilian clothes.

The police are still interrogating the 7, to get an answer to the question why on earth someone would set fire to the sleeping homeless man.
All but one of the perpetrators were already known to the police, some of them for violent crime.

The homeless man escaped unharmed due to quick response from a machinist with a fire hose. He will need new clothes though.
Berlin is home to between 3 and 10 thousand homeless (how much time is left for the worst pun of the year competition?). In the winter months the subway companies allow them to sleep on the benches in the stations.

It seems that UK's media is already working on spreading Russian's anti-Merkel propaganda as the English arm of Putin's media machine to influence the upcoming elections.

Telling the world what happens is propaganda?

Yes, because they only tell part of what happens, if only because of the limited amount of space they have, and they select said part in order to influence you in a way they consider as beneficial for them. That's why Wikileaks is Russian propaganda, after all!

Besides, Express is a fucking tabloid, with news headlines like this: Ancient 'ETERNAL LIFE' bacteria leaves Russian scientist 'ILLNESS-FREE'. So it could be simply made up, fake news style.
