... when even Uganda is laughing at you.
Colonel Muammar Gadaffi, whose career as Libyan dictator has been punctuated by a series of eye-watering gaffes, has done it again.
This, let us recall, is the lad who attempted to set up a united Africa under his own leadership not once but repeatedly. The lad whose London embassy staff thought it was a smart idea to take potshots at female cops. The lad who trained the world's terrorists and gave them weaponry.
You'd think, after the assassination of his daughter by American bombs, that he'd work out to keep his head down in future. After all, even his fellow Arab neighbours can no longer stand him or his ego.
But no. On a recent visit to Uganda, he called the Bible a forgery because it didn't mention Muhammed.
Presumably it hadn't dawned on him that the lack of a mention for the Islamic prophet may have something to do with the Bible being written centuries before Muhammed was born.
Now even the Ugandans are laughing at him. How low can a dictator go?

It's the haircut, no self respecting tyrant would want to look like an aging rock star after a month long coke binge.
I think the ageing Rolling Stone look is the best thing about Gadaffi actually.
It confirms him for the Seventies relic he actually is.
