Switzerland 'sorry' for Gaddafi son's arrest
Libya has won a formal apology from Switzerland for the arrest last year of Colonel Gaddafi's son.
President Hans-Rudolf Merz flew to Tripoli hoping to draw a line under a dispute which saw oil supplies disrupted and Libyan funds withdrawn from Swiss banks.
Some related items I read in german language news reports from Switzerland but couldn't find on the net:
"Merz lowered his pants before Gaddafi!" a politician commented (i.e. he "b*nt over and spread the ch**ks").
"Swiss territorial sovereignty is gone."
"Equality before the law is gone."
Geneva canton authorities are furious. Merz as an officer of the Swiss Federation is interfering with cantonal law enforcement.
This together with the Lockerbie surrender completes Gaddafi's triumph. In all likelihood Gaddafi did not engineer 9/11 but nonetheless 9/11 was of great benefit to him.
