CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP
Libya's sham Supreme Court
has overturned the bogus death
sentences of 5 Bulgarian nurses & a Palestinian doctor, granting
them a new fake trial. In Libya, this is called progress.
It also raises the possibility that
Austria's Schwarzenegger stadium will be renamed Gaddafi Stadium
to honor the spirit of clemency.
By coincidence, the reversal
comes just after
European & US officials agreed to set up a ransom fund
for the families of AIDS-stricken children in Libya.
The saga began in 1999 as a blame game for Libya's appalling
hospital hygiene, & a clever way for Gaddafi to channel popular
anger at a powerless scapegoat.
The accused were originally charged with bioterrorism, with Gaddafi claiming the virus had been bioengineered to experiment on Libyan children. When this proved too loopy even for Gaddafi, they were charged with deliberately infecting children on orders of the Mossad.
They were convicted & sentenced to death by firing squad, even though they said their confessions had been obtained by torture & rape, & HIV discoverer Luc Montainger testified the infections started a year prior to the defendants' arrival. Gaddafi then toyed with his captives, trying to extort billions from Bulgaria, which wouldn't play.
But with the Iraq War & Gaddafi's Madonna-like reinvention as America's BFF, he got caught in his own trap. With Bush & the EU coming down hard on him, Gaddafi now has to alienate either the West (& Western investment) or the Libyan people, who he's whipped into hysteria.

Makes Yassir look like a goddamned diplomat.

When we get into bed with dogs, why are we surprised we wake up with fleas?

Hah. This is just another victory for the Mossad, who have orchestrated this entire event. Ask yourself who benefits from all this. There is only one answer.
Did you notice that a vicious terrorist murderer was released from a Kraut prison at the same time a Kraut woman was released by her islamic captors in Iraq? A coincidence, or more evidence of the evil testicles, I mean, tentacles, of the Mossad?
BTW Jeff, why are you using a picture of Alice Cooper instead of Gaddafi? You must be in on it...

You know, 500 years ago this probably would have qualified as shrewd diplomacy. I'll bet Suleyman the Magnificent pulled crap like this all the time. The problem with Islam is that everything about it was cutting-edge progressive 500 years ago, and they're never going to forgive the infidels for going out and making up all sorts of new stuff.
Oh, and the picture? I'm going to say Marilyn Manson, ca. 2035. Your earlier post inspired me.
