Today is dedicated to my friend's husband, Mansur Kikhia, who protested against Gaddafi's human rights abuses. Mansur was the leader of the opposition party against Gaddafi and had been at one time the foreign affairs minister to the UN. He was a respected spokesman for the middle east and was at a peace conference in Cairo when kiddnapped... later killed by Gaddafi. Today's release of the Libyan Lockerbie bomber has bought memories of this opened minded, fair, intelligent man who tried so hard to warn the world of terrorism and human rights abuses of not only Gaddafi, but other world "leaders."
