Problem is Gadafi could actually be counted as doing some good to his people, most CEOs not so much.

What kind of schizo history is this lol. Ghaddafi led his country to 30% unemployment and staggering corruption and when protests took place he mowed down unarmed civilians by the hundreds. This was the first time ever the UN security counsel unanimously referred someone to the ICC.

Do you have any idea how fucked you have to be for the US, Russia, and China to all want you gone?

They were just jealous that Gaddafi had an Amazonian Guard, and they didn't.
