Daphne, the point I miss, I think, is this; that after all the horrible PL&#039;s history with Gaddafi in the &#039;80s, why make Gaddafi an honorary companion of honour of the National Order of Merit in 2004?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - You&#039;re asking the wrong person.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Ah, so because the PL wanted to turn Malta into Libya, strengthened ties with Gaddafi and tipped off Gaddafi about the bombing some 25 years ago, makes Dr. Gonzi&#039;s visit in 2004 insignificant, right? I see this logic very much in line with Nakita&#039;s!

And what about the close business relations, that I got to know about on this website, between a certain prominent PN minister and the regime in Tripoli?

I only got to know about these relations on this website, and that&#039;s greatly appreciated. However, I see this more of a typical &#039;kull min jgholli jdejh ghandu xi jxomm&#039; scenario. Judging by what the general public knows, PL&#039;s armpits may smell fouler than the PN&#039;s, but that hardly justifies some of the infamous relations that key members of the PN kept with Libya?

U iva, huma ghandhom lill-Joe Sammut, u ahna ghandna l-John Dalli!

[&lt;strong&gt;Daphne - The point you miss, Nobody, and I don&#039;t blame you because even the august Lino Spiteri chose to miss it in his The Sunday Times column today, is that the Nationalist government operated at an above-board level. The Labour government did not. Malta under Gaddafi - yes, under Gaddafi - was virtually a Libyan satellite state. We had green passports on which Libya was marked more prominently than Malta, children in state schools worn green uniforms and were given copies of Gaddafi&#039;s Green Book, Arabic was made compulsory like English and Maltese for university entrance and the state sixth form, Gaddafi&#039;s HQ in Valletta faced the seat of national power across Palace Square, Gaddafi was permitted to enter the Maltese parliament escorted by armed Libyan guards, when Libyan students were found hanged at Ta&#039; Giorni college the police were too terrified to investigate and marked them down as suicides, Malta was used in the transshipment of arms by Gaddafi to the IRA, Gaddafi addressed Labour Party mass meetings but when democratic politicians tried to address PN mass meetings they were arrested and deported...I could go on, but won&#039;t.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>
