WOW - so if this is true, it's really going to hit the fan now. He's made a fool out of everyone. Justice for all those that died.

Now, this is very interesting news.

I have to say that I did think that the arguments that the Iranians were behind the bombing as revenge for the Americans shooting down the Iranian airline were compelling, and that the evidence behind Libya's involvement was dodgy. But if we get some compelling evidence that Ghadaffi was indeed behind this - that makes this all the more interesting. Not least because he was of late one of 'our guys' again.

But then again, I'll wait until all the facts are in (well, at least some more evidence) before believing this latest story as fact.

Cheers,

True, at the moment, it's pretty much 'oh because this guy says so' and he needs to provide his actual evidence. Although to be fair, it really wouldn't surprise me. Gaddafi admitted Libya's involvement and paid the compensation etc etc, but to find out that he could actually have ordered the bombing himself would really just show how evil and manipulative he is.
