| Mutassim with Hillary Clinton: |
Gaddafi's fourth son, Mutassim Gaddafi, was a Lieutenant Colonel in the Libyan army. National Security Adviser Mutassim Gaddafi was believed to have actively tried to cultivate relations with Washington. Still, Mutassim seemed to of been even more embedded in Libya’s state-security firmament than Saif, and commanded their father’s elite presidential guard. He served as Libya's National Security Advisor, in which capacity he oversaw the nation's National Security Council. His name مُعْتَصِمٌ بِٱللهِ muʿtaṣimu-n (bi l-lāhi) could be latinized as Mutassim, Moatessem or Moatessem-Billah. Saif Al-Islam and Moatessem-Billah were both seen as possible successors to their father. h/t 9-11 do more then never forget, stop Islam
