I know it sounds silly, but this also makes me want to think our exceptional efforts in Libya in trying to kill or displace Qaddafi may have some roots in the various conspiracy theories out there regarding collusion of certain governments on oil deals to get this guy released.

Dead men tell no secrets you know.

Omg, FF this is about as bad as those 'black helicopters that shoot white phos' nonsense you used to lament about until you realized how utterly wrong you were.

Give it a rest.

I was merely pointing out what options were available for helicopters that were in the inventory for ya there FF. And fwiw, i've seen some hellfires do some crazy stuff.

I agree that there is a big concern about who we are supporting in Libya and whats the future expectations of that support and relationship. But you need to realize that this isnt like Afghanistan was back 30+ years ago, and there are more than a few major differences in how this is being pursued.

Also, drop the 'we supported OBL' thing.....there just isnt any real support for that allegation......never has been.

Interesting series of posts. Is there not enough tinfoil to go around?

There is a huge amount of controversy surrounding this case. It is really a classic example of how not to conduct an investigation. And these details have been brought up over and over again in all the threads about this incident in this forum.

Wikipedia has a fairly good recap contained in these two articles:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_Am_Flight_103

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investigation_into_the_bombing_of_Pan_Am_Flight_103

Perhaps someday we will finally learn the truth of what actually happened, once the topic becomes far less politically sensitive for the countries involved.

As the scorpion said to the frog: "I can't help myself, it's my nature."
