In the interview, Bolton said he hoped the removal of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein from power would send a message to Libya, Syria and Iran. "We are hoping that the elimination of the dictatorial regime of Saddam Hussein and the elimination of all of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction would be important lessons to other countries in the region particularly Syria, Libya, and Iran, that the cost of their pursuit of weapons of mass destruction is potentially quite high."

Thanks for the ping. Wow, blast from the past...

"In 1999, when Moammar Gadhafi sent two suspects in the bombing to an international tribunal in the Netherlands, U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan recommended lifting the sanctions altogether."

Figures, Kofi is so anti American, yet if not for the US, he'd be flipping burgers in France.

This is why GW put Lybia into the Axis of Evil. That plus the war in Iraq, the shock and awe, and the photos of $oddomite the Rat changed Kadaffy's mind.
