		Qaddafi is the youngest child from a nomadic Bedouin peasant family in the desert region of Sirte.
		Qaddafi's inspiration was Gamal Abdul Nasser, a popular statesman in neighboring Egypt who rose to the presidency by appealing to Arab unity and condemning the West.
		Qaddafi based his new regime on a blend of Arab nationalism, aspects of the welfare state and what Qaddafi termed "direct, popular democracy." He called this system "Islamic socialism" and while he permitted private control over small companies, the government controlled the larger ones.

	A Victory for Diplomacy: Libya Renounces Weapons of Mass Destruction
		For over thirty years, intelligence officials and other experts warned that Libya was an emerging threat and was developing its capacity to acquire and facilitate the proliferation of nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction.
		Late last year, however, in a seemingly abrupt reversal of policy, Libya’s head of state Col. Moammar Qaddafi announced his government’s decision to disclose and dismantle its nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons programs and to allow international inspectors unconditional access to monitor and verify compliance.
		Five years ago, Col. Qaddafi once more initiated discussions on normalizing relations, approaching the British government with an offer that ended in a deal to settle legal disputes over issues that included the bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1989.

	Left Coast by Alexander Cockburn
		Qaddafi has been a useful devil for over quarter of a century, reaching an apogee as a "threat" in the Reagan years when the CIA invented a Libyan assassination team, supposedly headed south from Canada to attack the White House, which was speedily fortified by concrete barricades that remained in place for many years thereafter.
		The White House had prepared a news release regretting the "accidental" death of the Libyan leader, but found to its chagrin that Qaddafi had survived the raid, which did manage to claim the life of his daughter.
		In fact there’s plenty of evidence to suggest that Iran instigated the sabotage of PanAm Flight 103 in revenge for the shooting down of its civilian airbus over the Persian Gulf by the US missile carrier Vincennes, whose officers were subsequently decorated for their heroism in blowing away the civilian plane and 290 passengers.

	Did Israel Frame Qaddafi In 1986?
		Once the device had been planted in the apartment in Libya, according to Ostrovsky, messages in Arabic were directed to it from Israel and rebroadcast from Tripoli, to make it look as if Moammar Qaddafi had been communicating with his agents about upcoming terrorist attacks.
		In March of 1986, the US, France and Spain began intercepting and translating the broadcasts, but France and Spain dismissed them as counterfeit, firstly, because Libya had not theretofore made use of this too obvious means of communication, and secondly, because it was unlikely that Libya would advertise such terrorist intentions beforehand.
		However, it was never shown that Moammar Qaddafi was behind the bombing.

		Columbia University held a two-day conference to discuss democracy with Libyan academics, culminating in a lecture by Moammar Qaddafi himself.
		Libya is a state sponsor of terrorism and has had to pay billions in punishment for a variety of terrorist attacks.
		At least Qaddafi seemed to acknowledge that he is a despot: "'You ask us, 'Why do you oppress opposition in the Middle East?'" The answer: "In our countries, the opposition takes the form of explosions, assassinations, killing." Funny, isn't it, that the opposition uses the same tactics as the rulers?

	The Straight Dope: How are you supposed to spell Muammar Gaddafi/Khadafy/Qadhafi?
		For a while, in fact, it seemed that Muammar (sometimes written Mu'ammar, but let's not get picky) might become the standard--until the Desert Fox himself threw a monkey wrench into things, as he is wont to do.
		The colonel signed the letter in Arabic script, beneath which was typed "Moammar El-Gadhafi." This was the first known indication of his own feelings on the subject, and the wire services and many newspapers promptly announced they would switch.
		You stated that the Library of Congress is fond of the spelling Qadhdhafi, "which is an abomination." It is indeed an abominable spelling, but the Library of Congress has no special fondness for it.

		With the administration’s recent white hot rhetoric against Syria – accusing that regime of producing chemical weapons, harboring terrorists and the defunct autocrats of Iraq, and, in general, being a “rogue” state – that country is probably pulling the best odds now in Las Vegas.
		During the Reagan administration, the ruler of that small North African country was not only on the varsity squad of thugs – he was the star.
		But Qaddafi is still around and could certainly come off the bench to fill the vacant spot.

		A Malaysian paper, the Star, which covered the event (interestingly, the Spectator failed to report the event once over the past two weeks) wrote: "[Qaddafi] touted Libya's political system as superior to ‘farcical' and ‘fake' parliamentary and representative democracies in the West.

	Commentary
		Although moderate Arabs hate Moammar Qaddafi, they are even more alarmed by the anti-Arab, anti-Islamic thrust of current U.S. Mideast policy.
		The reality is much more complex, involving how Arabs feel about terrorism, what they think about Qaddafi, and what they believe this whole episode will lead to in the Middle East.
		After referring to Qaddafi as "mad dog," a new step down in diplomatic language, President Reagan went on to say that Qaddafi was dangerous because he is trying to export his Islamic fundamentalist revolution to the world.

	Woe is Dean
		For example, Libyan dictator Moammar Qaddafi, only a few short days after the capture of Saddam Hussein, announced his intention to give up all weapons programs his government has pursued over the past three decades.
		The leftist response is that our intelligence agencies had been conferring with Qaddafi for months in order to reach such an announcement.
		The rebuttal that I give is this: If all of this bargaining and negotiating had been going on for months, why is it that it took Saddam's capture to force Qaddafi into going public with these revelations.

		So for Qaddafi to come and say, "Well, I'm turning over a new leaf, we're going to start something new," well, okay, what about the tool that you have in the country that had been doing these awful things, why are they still in power?

	El Dorado Canyon: Reagan's Undeclared War With Qaddafi Book Reviews
		This book is an extensive study of the "quasi-war" that the United States fought with the major miscreant in the Middle East during the 1980s, namely Libya's Moammar Qaddafi.
		This resulted in another FON exercise (“Prairie Fire”) in March 1986 by the Navy, during which a couple of Libyan naval vessels were destroyed.
		The raid on Qaddafi involved aircraft using, at least in the Air Force's case, laser guided bombs, the most accurate weapons of the day.
