Who is the head of Libya?

A civil war is breaking out in Libya — travelers beware.

But when we started looking into the head of state there — the infamous Muammar Qaddafi — we realized we have no idea how to spell the crazed leader’s name. (This is the same guy who wanted to displace all of the homeless in Central Park so he could set up a giant tent there — and, well, act like a homeless person.)

So in our search for the Q-man’s correct spelling, we learned from ABC News that there are actually 120 different spellings of his name. So allow us to present them to you:
