    In reply to Meet the Gaddafi Boys
    Saif Gaddafi isn't just friends with the Rothschilds. According to Charles Moore of The Spectator, he's on pheasant-shooting terms with Cherie Blair, wife of the former British prime minister, and Peter Mandelson, eminence grise of the current government.

    'I hear of a remarkable recent gathering at Waddesdon Manor, Lord Rothschild's famous French chateau in Buckinghamshire. A shoot was taking place, though not all the party were shooting. As well as Lord Rothschild and his son Nat, the unofficial deputy prime minister, Lord Mandelson, was there, and also Lord Rothschild's country neighbour, Cherie Blair. Neither of them picked up a gun. Various young friends of Nat with double-barrelled or European princely names were shooting. But the keenest shot was Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi, son of the Libyan dictator, and the man who escorted the Lockerbie bomber, Al Megrahi, home to a hero's welcome in Libya in August.

    Now that Libya has made its strange bargain with the West, Saif has taken up our traditional upper-class sport with delight. Near Tripoli, he has laid down 40,000 partridges. Unfortunately, raptors have consumed about half of them, but Saif invited friends, including Flavio Briatore of Formula 1 fame, to a shoot there a few weeks back, with lunch in a desert tent, and the bag was about 300. More recently, Saif was shooting in Spain, the guest of Alejandro Agag. Mr Agag is a businessman - managing director of Queen's Park Rangers, among other things - who used to be secretary-general of the European People's Party in the European parliament. He is a friend of Silvio Berlusconi and is married to the daughter of José Maria Aznar, the former prime minister of Spain (Tony Blair was at the wedding). Saif comes to England to shoot quite often, though I gather he has got into a bit of trouble about his guns with the airport authorities. Readers will remember that Lord Mandelson met Saif at Lord Rothschild's villa in Corfu days before the release of Al Megrahi. What are we to make of all this? It could be argued that the Gaddafis are better occupied shooting pheasants than blowing up airliners. It could also be argued that it is unusual for our deputy prime minister to be rubbing shoulders with a member of the family responsible for the biggest terrorist atrocity ever committed against British citizens.'

    Hannibal is both violent and handsome. The world can only hope he has some nefarious plot up his sleeve that can only be foiled by dashing British super-spies.

    Gadaffi beats the hell out of the house of Saud and the hundreds of family members that have made the US their playground. Gadaffi was involved in a very public spat with the Saudi's because they would not accept his daughter Ayesha as a representative. Besides, his sartorial choices and and those of his children alone should count for something. Not to mention their coifs!

    Get into Mutassim and his slick back hair & shiny suit. Killing everything @ the Sate Department.

    @tfcocs: If you look at different photos you will notice that the uniforms are different and there are several high-heeled ones. His life has be saved more then once by these women. He said he could not trust his life to a man because they are easily distracted and easily persuaded(roughly translated) . His daughter was sen as his representative and the Saudi's refused her because she was a woman, Pops pointed out that they met with Albright and Rice with no problem so this must be because she is a Muslim woman , he told them either they meet with her or no one. He had his whole delegation back. He also got int a shouting match with the King of Saudi Arabia- the one that got to second base with George W.

    If only these wastrels could unionize into some kind of Profligate Sons International, their collective-bargaining position would be strengthened when it comes to laying waste to political enemies and to squirming out of parking tickets.

    Rumor has it that Hannibal will be putting his diplomatic immunity to the test while in the States as he prepares to attack New Canaan with elephants captured from Barnum & Baileys.

    This reminds me of the time my tacky stepmom (Ms Twee Cow Stencils and Gingham 1989) tried to sell the heirloom bedroom furniture that my Mother had. For exactly $500. So I gave her a cheque for $550, carted the stuff away, and put a stop payment on the cheque.

    PS Hi Loretta!

    A teenage boy's 8 year old furniture? For $500? Big no thanks, Nancy. And after giving $10 million to that cult you would think she would have gotten a nice tax write-off and wouldn't have to resort to selling used furniture through mass e-mail.
