With Gadhafi dead and burning in hell where he belongs, I nonetheless want to start a thread speculating if Gadhafi's regime could have emerged victorious in the Lybian Civil War. Or how the rebels would still be sequested in Benghazi and Gadhafi having the West firmly under control with an indefinite stalemate developing. Alternately, was there a possibility that Lybia remains quiet, other than a few isolated protests, in the midst of the Arab Spring?

How would a surviving Gadhafi regime have affected the course of the Arab Spring (again, its still way too early to tell how the fall of his regime is affecting it right now)?

Could this have been possible, or was the demise Gadhafi and his regime just a matter of time no matter what the circumstance?
