LOL: U.S., Others Probe Alleged Gaddafi Plot Against Saudi Ruler By John Mintz Washington Post Staff Writer Thursday, June 10, 2004 The U.S., British and Saudi governments are investigating allegations that Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi launched a plot to assassinate the ruler of Saudi Arabia and to destabilize the desert kingdom with the help of a prominent Muslim activist from Falls Church, according to an account in the New York Times that was backed up by an informed source with knowledge of the case. Late last year Gaddafi renounced his program to develop Libyan weapons of mass destruction, in an apparent abandonment of years of pariah status, only after the alleged plot to kill Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah was exposed by a Libyan intelligence official and the Virginia-based activist, who were both alleged participants in the plot, said the Times and the informed source. U.S., British and Saudi officials are investigating accounts of Gaddafi's supposed role in the plot that were given by Col. Mohamed Ismael, a Libyan intelligence official, and Abdurahman Alamoudi, a longtime Muslim activist who is facing federal charges of violating U.S. sanctions against doing business with Libya. Alamoudi allegedly received $340,000 in cash from Libyan officials, the source said. Alamoudi offered his account of the alleged plot to U.S. prosecutors during plea negotiations over pending charges against him, the source said. A source who had detailed knowledge of the events confirmed the Times account. If the allegations of a Libyan plot to kill a foreign leader were confirmed, it would almost certainly cause the United Nations to reinstate sanctions against Libya that were lifted last year after Gaddafi renounced terrorism and acknowledged responsibility for the 1988 bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland.
