AP MOBILE: Paper: Cable shows UK briefed Libya on Lockerbie
I am extremely impressed by your succinct summary of US involvement and attitude in the Middle East over the last 50 years. (ref. The Dictator Protection Plan"). Of course we are the most potent protectors and guarantors. What an amazing development in the media, in this case Newsweek, for publishing such frank assessments. Might we have a mini-revolution in news in this country?
