Qaddafi presents an interesting case. Throughout much of my life I've seen him as an unyielding entity, but what if he should respond to our efforts to alter his ways? How can we be sure his rehab is genuine? This recent article, even though perhaps an apologetic for Qaddafi, discusses the possibility that this is in fact the case. As we watch the development of the anti-terrorist response by the US, Qaddafi's reactions may shed a great deal of light on a possible answer to this rehab puzzle. SUMMARY The recent trial of two Libyans for the 1988 bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, raises a vexing problem for U.S. policymakers: What should Washington do when American containment policy starts to pay off and a "rogue" state starts to reform? After years of international isolation, Colonel Mu'ammar Qaddafi is ending his belligerence and starting to meet many of the demands placed on him by Washington and its allies. Now President Bush must figure out how to keep the pressure on while recognizing Libya's progress and helping reintegrate it into the world community. foreignaffairs.org --fl
