REGIME FORCES, WHEN THEY INVADED THE COUNTRY ON AUGUST 2, 1990.
ALL CALLS AND APPEALS BY KUWAIT AND OTHER STATES AS WELL AS WORLD

I suppose the story has a certain amusement value - for those of us with a twisted sense of humour - and I hope whoever posted it didn't expect us to actually believe it. The drums of war are beating louder, and I'd hoped IMC might be immune from the racket.

I thought it would raise amusement coming as it does on the same day it becomes public knowledge that a US fighter pilot has been reclassified MIA.
The same 'news' site hints also that if Almegrahi's conviction for the Lockerbie bombing is upheld, then it will pave the way for the US to rehabilitate Gadaffi!
