It washes if Libya doesn't tell the US and UK of the WMD it passes along. Try this scenario: Libya agrees to dismantle the WMD program, which has been 8 months in the making. In that time, Libya, still in contact with terrorists, knows of their intent. In an attempt to 'make good' with the world community, knowing what lies ahead, Libya agrees to dismantle the WMD program. Attack occurs and weapons are traced back to Libya. That agreement basically binds the US and UK from attacking Libya, at least in the eyes of that fool Qaddafi and the UN. Of course, I truly believe that Dubya would blast them from the face of the earth. But for an unpredictable guy like Qaddafi who lost family in the attack Reagan ordered- this may just be revenge.
Anything is possible, especially with kooky Muslim leaders.
but if we can think this up, so can the administration. no way they go public with Bush until it all comes out in the wash. I agree about Quadafi. how old is he now? this whole thing could be a ruse on his part, I don't think he cares whether he lives or dies at this point in his life.
