Kadhafi, obviously. Why would you ask?
You win. The internet was already given away, so here’s your free dysfunctional Middle Eastern country.
The extent to which he’s in charge seems increasingly open to question.
**Leo: ** “Tell them that Khaddafi is spelled with an ‘H’ and two 'D’s and isn’t a seven letter word for anything.”
Margaret: “Is this for real or just funny?”
Leo: “Apparently, it’s neither.”
Leo: “Seventeen across is wrong… You’re spelling his name wrong… What’s my name? My name doesn’t matter. I’m just an ordinary citizen, who relies on the Times crossword for stimulation. And I’m telling you that I’ve met the man twice and I’ve recommended a pre-emptive Exocet missile strike against his air force, so I think I know how…<pause>…They hung up on me.”
**CJ: ** Almost hard to believe.
That’s Q-A-D-A-Double F-Y. D-U-C-UCK. 
And the name of the capital of India is New Delhi.
ETA BTW, the local pronunciation in Libya is Gadaffi.
Khadaffi, but I usually just think of him as HIM, because he reminds me of the Powerpuff Girls villian
Muammy.
I spell it “Gaddafi”, but pronounce it “Throatwarbler Mangrove.”
Moe
No,him.
Starts with an “A”, ends with an “E”, and has seven letters.
abalone?
Nonsense. Gaddafi himself has stated that he doesn’t care how it’s spelled in English. The issue is threefold (1) there is no generally accepted system for transliterating Arabic into Latin characters, (2) there are several sounds in Arabic that don’t exist in English, and (3) Pronunciation varies across the Arabic world.
(1) India doesn’t have a “capitol.”
(2) The capital of India is New Delhi
(3) “Bombay” is not something invented by provincial Americans. The city was founded and named by the Portuguese. “Bombay” was the official name of the city and is still commonly used throughout India, even in the city itself. In India, no one corrects you if you say Bombay, except for a handful of politicians who capitalize on ethnic tensions to maintain their popularity.
(4) “Mumbai,” the current official name, was not commonly used before the change, except among the Marathi-speaking locals of the city.
Which is not a town many miles away from the original Delhi, it’s the new part of Delhi.
This is true. New Delhi is one of the nine districts of Delhi. It’s not a separate jurisdiction. And in casual speech, most Indians often refer just to “Delhi.”
