Col. Muammar al-Qaddafi, “leader of the revolution, the president of the African Union, the king of kings of Africa,” gave his first address to the United Nations today, saying that "those who caused “mass murder” in Iraq be tried; defended the right of the Taliban to establish an Islamic emirate; wondered whether swine flu was cooked up in a laboratory as a weapon; and demanded a thorough investigation of the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King."
"He offered to move the United Nations headquarters to Libya because leaders coming here had to endure jet lag and because the understandable security against another attack on New York by Al Qaeda was too stringent. And he repeated his longstanding proposal that Israel and the Palestinian territories be combined into one state called Isratine. "
Dangerous nutcase he may be, but I say we take Col. up on his offer to host the UN!
