A Libyan rebel fighter sits in the sitting room of Moammar Gadhafi's private plane at the international airport in Tripoli, Aug. 28. The Arabic words translate as "Be thankful and we give you more".

A Libyan rebel fighter sits in a bedroom of Moammar Gadhafi's private plane, at the international airport in Tripoli, Libya, Aug. 28.

While the plane decor leans to the tacky side, wouldn't you love to enjoy the comfort that Gadhafi's plane offers when you travel? A full-size bed on a long-haul flight would be amazing!

    Does any one notice,it seems the muslims who have name reconition all have water beds? Osam Ben Laden had one and gadhafi had one on his plane.You talk about enjoying the infidels way of life.

          SICK ! and this is what our society pushes people to aspire to.

          Doesn't matter how many people are suffering and starving on this planet as long as you have a personnel jet.

          These "leaders" are loved so much that the citizens have to spend billions on their protection ...... so much love.
