Abbas Find a Cliff

Global terrorist and Interpol fugitive Mahmoud Abbas meets Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi, during the 11th African Union Summit, 30 June 2008 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.

What is interesting about this particular incident between Gaddafi and Abbas with others looking on with very larges smiles, maybe even a good laugh is that Gaddafi in his wisdom, requested Abbas’s demise, it was reported.

Furthermore, it is understood that Abbas was not welcome in any capacity at this summit or anywhere else for that matter.

It should also be known, that this is not the first time such a request has been presented to Abbas, from within the global community.

Thinking of terrorism in Palestine, all assets of known terrorist's or there organizations, will be frozen from this day foreword; especially those within Mahmoud Abbas‘s terrorist organization.

Libya won a seat on the U.N. Security Council Tuesday without opposition from the Bush administration.

Just over a year ago, the U.S. removed the African nation from the list of state sponsors of terrorism.

Democracy Treats People like Donkeys, Gaddafi says

8 October 2007

Tripoli: Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi said multiparty democracy is a sham promoted by governments that treat their people "like donkeys" and deny them real power, the official Libyan news agency Jana reported yesterday.

Gaddafi added in a speech last week that his north African country would never abandon its "state of the masses" system of rule by town hall meetings, which he has long predicted will be eventually embraced by governments around the world, Jana said.

Qaddafi Begins Legal Proceedings Against Ma'an for Coma Gaffe

13 August 2007

Bethlehem – Ma'an – President of Libya Muammar Qaddafi has begun legal proceedings against Ma'an News Agency and its Chief Editor Nasser Lahham for falsely reporting that he was in a coma last May.

The Libyan official for foreign contacts deputised a Palestinian lawyer, Hasan Salih Nasrallah, to instigate legal proceedings.

Nasrallah said that Ma'an exclusively published a news report on its website claiming that Qaddafi had suffered a brain clot on the 14th of May 2007 and had, as a result, gone into a dangerous coma. Ma'an's report added that his children were immediately called to his bedside due to his critical condition.

The prosecution also said that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas telephoned Qaddafi to check his health condition and learned that he was in full health and the reports were false.

According to the prosecution, the news report was highly damaging to the image of the Libyan republic, the international economy, political stability in the region and bilateral relations between Libya and Palestine. The prosecution also alleges that the report had a detrimental affect on Libyan foreign security.

The Palestinian attorney-general demanded a full investigation and summoned the defendant.

Ma'an Chief Editor Nasser Lahham confirmed that he received a copy of the legal documents. He says he refuses to comment until he has consulted Ma'an's attorney, Skawqi Ayasa.

Sarkozy: Trust Arab states with N-power

26 July 2007

Tripoli: After agreeing to nuclear cooperation with Libya, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said the West should trust Arab states to develop such technology for peaceful purposes or risk a war of civilisations.

France agreed on Wednesday to help Libya develop a nuclear reactor to supply drinking water from desalinated sea water. The reactor might be supplied by French atomic energy firm Areva. Sarkozy told reporters in Libya that to consider the Arab world "is not sensible enough to use civilian nuclear power" would, in the long run, risk a "war of civilisations".

"Nuclear power is the energy of the future," he said. "If we don't give the energy of the future to the countries of the southern Mediterranean, how will they develop themselves? And if they don't develop, how will we fight terrorism and fanaticism?"

Respecting rules

Many Mideast countries are interested in developing atomic energy resources. Claude Gueant, Sarkozy's chief of staff, noted the nuclear cooperation deal means "a country that respects international rules can obtain civilian nuclear energy". Sarkozy denied any link between the nuclear deal and the release this week of six foreign medical workers who spent eight years in Libyan jails and were convicted of infecting hundreds of children with HIV.

Saudi Arabia, along with GCC partners UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar announced a joint project for peaceful nuclear energy, mainly for water desalination, last December. Egypt is also looking to revive its nuclear programme to meet energy needs.
