He has been working pretty hard to suck up to us for years. While the rest of the arab world defames us, he hangs big banners depicting the face of our president as a hero on public buildings.

I know it is wise to be cautious about normalizing relations, but maybe we should go easy on old Mohammar.

After all, if it doesn't do him any good to repent of his old ways, why should he? Just like we need to make those who attack us suffer, we need to work to make things good for our friends.

He's gone to great lengths to be a very good boy for --- what? --- 10+ years now? No, longer than that?

I think it could be a good thing for other arab leaders to see that there are rewards for jumping off of the jihad/terror bandwagon.

I agree. And he was the first, and most open (though in his kooky way), Arab voice to support our attack against AQ.

If memory serves, Uncle Ronnie kicked Khadaffy's butt back in 1984 or thereabouts...
