Hmm...well Lybia has been under the radar for a long time. It's good to see that they are willing to not use WMD. But basically, they are doing it to get closer to the US, which isn't that nice to see. They should of stayed under the radar.

Not surprising that they'd make this gesture
Libya's image has taken quite a hit for many years. I think they are trying to erase all the bad publicity they have encountered.
Libya has Nuclear weapons???

It's good for them, it makes international relations a bit better for that country.
I don't think they have nuclear wepons, but might have planed to make some.

That's true. If a country has WMD, they all of a sudden gain alot more respect and are higher up in the world food chain. And a whole lot less people want to mess with them.

No one wants to mess with them, except nations with even more WMD who feel threatened, e.g USA and UK

well of course, Nukes blow the shit outta stuff lol. If a country had a nuke and hated you, would you be worried? I hate nukes and the thought of them
If I was the head of a country that lost a war, and I had to sign a peace treaty, just as I was signing I'd glance over the treaty and then suddenly act surprised. "Wait a minute! I thought we won!"
I remember how, in college, I got that part-time job as a circus clown, and how the children would laugh and laugh at me. I vowed, then and there, that I would get revenge.
One day a beaver and a termite were walking down the road together. "I can eat through a tree with my teeth," said the beaver. "That's nothing," said the termite, "I can burrow through a tree." Then they heard a voice behind them. "You two think you're so smart, but you're nothing!" It was a bitter old drunk lady.
Any country abandoning the pursuit of WMD is a victory for peace
Any cynics who are saying this is Qad'hafi "folding" under Western pressure are talking bullshit.
This a move from Qad'hafi which proves he is a legitimate, freedom and peace loving leader. Hat's off to to the Colonel

Socialismo, although I am a big critic of US and UK policy you are of course correct to say that the colonel has made a good decision in destroying WMD. I doubt that he did so because he is peace loving, rather he is trying to gain favour with the West, and also what happened to Saddam must have changed the colonel's attitude.

This seems consistant with Qadhafi's move towards better diplomacy over the past ten years or so.

Wasn't Lybia Nationalist? I guess there afraid of getting kicked by the US or something so they decided to go quietly into the sunset.

You guys don't see the big picture here. Libya SHOULD persue its nuclear program to defend itself against US imperialism. In fact, all countries should have nuclear weapons for that purpose. The next thing you are going to see, is Bush screaming like that little girl on Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. Crying that Libya hasn't destoyed its WMDs, (which Libya doesn't have) and then deciding to attack it when it doesn't give up the weapons it doesn't have. For the sake of the Libyan people, Libya MUST have nuclear weapons ASAP. Because Bush wants Libya NOOOWWWWW!!!

Arming the world will not bring about peace. Our goal must be to disarm
you are insane MiDnIgHtMaRaUdEr. Having more nations with WMDs only increases the chances that they will be used.

You don't understand, without the nuclear deterrent, Bush will almost certainly attack Libya. Nuclear weapons are necessary for Libya to protect it's national soveriegnty. This is more than just promoting the international peace. The very lives of the Libyans depend on it!
