We Visit Libya

From sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches to a sea of Sahara sand, Libya is a land of harsh and ancient beauty. Libyan Berbers have watched from camelback for thousands of years as the great Greek, Roman, and Ottoman empires rose and fell. But change has come swiftly to Libya in modern times. Rich oil deposits brought money and technology that transformed a nation of nomadic tribes into a network of sophisticated cities with one of the highest standards of living in Africa. After overthrowing their long-ruling terrorist dictator, Muammar Gaddafi, today’s Libyans are building a free nation. Come, visit the new Libya, where joyfully free people celebrate a rich past and a bright future.

The bombing of Pan Am flight 103 in 1988 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and the politics that surround this early anti-U.S. terrorist act provide a fascinating case study in international relations. The event severely impacted Libya's relationship with the United States, the United Kingdom and the United Nations. This work examines all facets of the Lockerbie tragedy including the police investigation and indictment of two Libyan citizens, the imposition of international sanctions against Libya, that country's response and the years of tension and conflict that followed, the role of political mediation (most notably by Prince Bandar bin Sultan and President Nelson Mandela), the trial in the Netherlands, Muammar Qaddafi and Libya's increasing maturity in dealing with complex international situations, and the flight 103 bombing's significance within the context of the events of September 11, 2001.

A true account of Felicity's search for justice following the murder of her husband, Victor Prazak, in Libya. Victor died on the 22nd of December 1992 when the passenger plane he was travelling on was brought down by a Libyan military MiG. Victor, the only Westerner on board the plane, was buried in a mass grave in the Libyan Desert without Felicity's consent. She was not even allowed to attend the burial. After nineteen years of fighting to uncover the truth, the recent uprising in Libya has brought to light the facts of the case. She is still petitioning the British government for an inquest, and is involved in legal action against the Libyan state.
