Libyan defector may be providing NATO with target info
I suspect that the same Black Americans who called former Congresswoman Cynthia Tucker a "traitor" for sitting on Libyan state television will see this man who defected from Libya as a hero in assisting the United States drones and the attack helicopters from Colonist Italy, France and Britain in their "Humanitarian Mission".
LONDON – Former Libyan foreign minister Moussa Koussa, a close confidant of Moammar Gadhafi who defected to the United Kingdom, may be providing information to NATO on high-value targets within Libya, sources say.
One European businessman with substantial holdings in Libya confirmed that he saw Koussa on a recent trip to Abu Dhabi. According to another Western diplomatic source, Koussa was “moved quietly” to Abu Dhabi as part of a deal with the British government. Under the arrangement, Koussa, also Libya’s former intelligence chief, would stay in a secured safe-house and provide NATO interrogators, likely British and French, with intelligence on a number of high-quality military targets inside Libya.
A phone call to the British Foreign Office on Monday to ask about Koussa’s whereabouts and reports that he’s providing NATO with Libyan targets did not yield any confirmation of his current location. The British Foreign Office said Koussa “is a free man and can do what he wants, and it’s not up to the Foreign Office to provide a running commentary.”
Likewise, when queried at a press conference Monday, British Prime Minister David Cameron office refused to comment on either Koussa’s current location or his alleged assistance to NATO in taking out Gadhafi’s most sensitive military assets.
