Landmark U.S. Delegation Visits Libya
U.S. congressmen flew into Tripoli on Sunday aboard a U.S. Navy plane they said was the first plane flying an American flag to land in Tripoli since Col. Muammar Gadhafi took power in 1969.
In other news, an unidentified American man was seen at the officers club at former Wheelus air force base stocking gin and cleaning glasses.
"I’m here to reinforce the positive steps that have been taken by the leader of Libya," Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Pa., said. Led by Weldon, the bipartisan delegation arrived as U.S. and British experts were preparing to start dismantling Libya’s weapons programs with Gadhafi’s blessing. Rep. Tom Lantos, D-Calif., arrived in Tripoli earlier Saturday, but he wasn’t on a U.S. military plane.
Prob'ly staying at the Sheraton. He'll learn...
The delegation was expected to meet with Gadhafi and visit the country’s nuclear sites, which Gadhafi has agreed to open up to U.N. inspectors.
