Ghadafi Provides Intelligence on Terrorists
(Observer-UK) - Libya provided detailed intelligence on hundreds of al-Qaeda and other Islamic extremists as part of a deal to end its isolation as a pariah nation. Libya has a sophisticated network of intelligence missions throughout Africa and the Middle East. In a series of extraordinary meetings held in Britain, orchestrated by MI6 and involving the CIA and Libyan intelligence, Libya agreed to hand over intelligence as well as pledging to abandon its WMD program in return for the lifting of crippling U.S. sanctions.
