Appearing on the Alex Jones Show today, investigative journalist Wayne Madsen said his sources in Libya provided information revealing Moammar Gaddafi was set-up in an assassination plot.
Early on October 19, Twitter messages from Gaddafi’s hometown of Sirte reported the presence of white flags across the devastated town. Flags were reported at multiple locations in the town, leaving some to believe the rebels were surrendering,
The use of white flags to signal surrender is an ancient tradition going back to the Eastern Han dynasty in China and the Roman Empire. Violating the widely accept convention is considered an act of extreme treachery.
Under both the Geneva and Hague protocols of international humanitarian law, it is forbidden to kill or injure persons hors de combat (outside of combat) and doing so constitutes a major war crime.
Madsen’s sources said Gaddafi was told to surrender to the al-Qaeda rebels besieging Sirte before morning prayers at 5 am, but that it was decided to surrender after the sun was well up in the sky so the white flags would be clearly visible.

Re: Madsen: Gaddafi Flying White Flag When Killed
Madsen says Gaddafi was set-up in an assassination plot.
Yes, members of the lynch mob admitted that several people who were with Gaddafi in the concrete pipe told the terrorist "rebels' where Gaddafi was. Those same people could have arranged for Gaddafi to leave Sirte in the convoy, and told NATO about it, so NATO would attack the convoy at 5:30 am. They could even have told Gaddadfi that they had NATO assurances that NATO would not attack.
Gaddafi, wounded, managed to get to the drain pipe, whereon the traitors told the rebels where he was.
Stories about Gaddafi being killed in a “crossfire” are absurd.
Did NATO want him dead? Yes. A “trial” at the ICC would have backfired.
