CNSNews.com - Parade of Despots Heading For New York

CNSNews.com - Parade of Despots Heading For New York: "(CNSNews.com) – The usual September parade of world leaders descending on New York City for the opening of the annual United Nations General Assembly will be characterized this year by the presence of some of the world’s most controversial figures.

Likely to provoke the most ire this year will be Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, who plans his first visit ever to the United States at a time when his emergence from international isolation has been set back by the release of the Libyan convicted in the Lockerbie bombing. Of the 270 people killed when the New York-bound Pan Am Flight 103 was blown up after taking off from London in 1988, 189 were Americans.

Gaddafi’s plans to erect his customary Bedouin tent in the grounds of a property in New Jersey owned by the Libyan Embassy were shelved after locals protested."
