Libya's Destiny Sways Between Arab Spring and Pendulum Swings

Believe it or not, this is not a narrative, an atlas, a single story, nor an account of one person; rather it covers an incredibly wide range of mind illuminating, soul stirring and politically sensitive topics. It covers my close encounter with Gaddafi, who responded to my calling him Moammar, out of his respect for me as a split image of his Indian Professor. It covers the hundred year old story of Omar Mukhtar, the Lion of the desert. The History and Geography of Libya including famous sightseeing places is enlightening. The political pendulum of the oil hungry West, the reality of the ARAB SPRING and the avoidable killing of the innocent bystanders both by the dictator and NATO BOMBS resulted in brutalities and the SUFFERING of the POOR EVERY TIME, ALL THE TIME. The building of a grass less Golf Course and the appendix describing "This Vicious World"is really unique and a must read.
