Gadhafi's son: Bush plan should be backed

Here comes the pay-off for appeasing terror.
(This is, of course, not the child killed by Reagan's air strike.)

<<CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - The son of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi said Wednesday Arab countries should support President Bush's campaign to promote democracy in the Middle East.

<snip>

``Instead of shouting and criticizing the American initiative, you have to bring democracy to your countries, and then there will be no need to fear America or your people,'' said Seif al-Islam Gadhafi. ``The Arabs should either change or change will be imposed on them from outside.''

Seif denied reports that he is a candidate to succeed his father, who rules Libya with little tolerance of opposition.

``Many Arab countries are now following the policy of inheriting the leadership, but there are hundreds of Libyans who are better (suited) than I,'' Seif said.

Seif even praised Israel, saying that unlike Arab countries, sons do not tend to succeed their fathers in power there.

``We don't put the appropriate person in the right place, but Israel is a democratic country,'' told the Al-Jazeera television station.

Libya says that Bush is a good guy, and the Republicans think this is a GOOD thing?

how tyrants bow to the mighty once the mighty are unafraid to show their might (i.e. invade Iraq).

What a great support base for Bush

Imagine if your loved one was killed aboard Pan Am Flight 103 and now the Bushites are making all nice with this known terrorist.

The bottom line is that old Momar has oil and Chimpy wants it.

We will kiss the ass of anyone who has the resources that we crave.
We are a despicable nation.

A lesson learned from Iraq and the unruly Iraqi sons.

this recent bush* embracing of another brutal dictator is making me sick....guess bush* forgot that the Libyan dictator BLEW an airplane out of the sky and KILLED everyone on board....

what's with this crap of bush* embracing the Libyan dictator?

Glad to see Bush has his own "Foreign Leaders" supporting him.

Clinton knew how to deal with terrorists. bushes and Regan's didn't.

Just wondering.

Charitable organizations? If he's in Egypt he needs to keep a lower profile. I'm sure Mubarrak wishes he'd go away.

Gadhafi's son: Bush plan should be backed

does Gadhafi's son care about Bush's tax cut to the wealthy? :)

According to this reasoning. Just thought I would point out the fallacy in his reasoning.

then it must be right!

:crazy: :crazy: :wtf:

Since the beginnings of the Iraqi invasion at least.


Greedy little bugger.

Is that this guy is a lot like Bush. He probably thinks that running a country is hard and doesn't want to tkae over after his dad is out. He is supporting democracy because he wants to run around and have fun being a rich playboy, rather than run Lybia. That's what it sounds like.

Convicted arms trafficker and former CIA agent Frank Terpil, who fled the United States in 1980, is under house arrest in Cuba, the Washington Post reported in its Sunday editions.

Quoting unidentified sources, the newspaper said Terpil, one of the most notorious fugitives from U.S. justice, was detained in Havana about three weeks ago. Cuban authorities were investigating his business practices on the island, according to the report from Havana.

Terpil fled the United States in September 1980 in the face of charges he sold 10,000 automatic weapons to undercover police agents. He was convicted in absentia in 1981 in a New York state court and sentenced to 53 years in prison.

Terpil, 56, also was charged in federal court with training terrorists in Libya, and allegedly collaborated with another renegade CIA agent, Edwin Wilson, to sell millions of dollars worth of weapons and explosives to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in the late 1970s. U.S. officials told the Post that Cuban authorities had not informed them of Terpil's detention.

There is no such thing as an ex-CIA agent or a renegade CIA agent. Only working undercover.

THE Sunday Telegraph was accused in the High Court yesterday of publishing "black propaganda", planted by a government security agency about a son of Col Gaddafi, the Libyan leader.

Saif Gaddafi, 29, is suing the newspaper for libel, claiming an article in 1995 falsely accused him of being a "thoroughly dishonest, unscrupulous and untrustworthy maverick against whom the international banking community has been warned to be on its guard".

Mr Gaddafi, an architect and engineer, claims that the article also accuses him of having masterminded, or actively participated in, "an outrageous international conspiracy to launder Libyan currency in Cairo and to defraud Iran and to flood that country with fake currency".

When I finally was invited to the Colonel's luxurious tent - after three days wait- I found a number of foreign, mainly women and all left wing, journalists from the third world and southern Europe. I asked him what were the obstacles in the way of restoring relations with Britain? `` To hell with Britain,'' came his sharp reply, `` I don't give a damn about Britain and I don't care if relations were never restored until the end of the world.''

you don't live here and have no right to tell us how to run our country!!! Do you vote in the USA?

that this isn't hat Bush is REALLY trying to do, however.

Their idea of democracy is throwing out people like Aristide and Chavez when they stand in the way of huge profits for American corps. And everyone knows that Bush is really trying to promote chaos in the ME so that the oil companies can be the de facto government (ie, so that fascism rules).

Gadhafi is smart to channel Bush's rhetoric in a way that works for the people of the ME. It's good Kung-fu.

Not like that commie tyrant Zapatero endorsing Kerry. </sarcasm>
