Nasser and Qaddafi. The interiors indicate this meeting took place in Cairo, not Tripoli.

Libya and the Brother Leader went through a long period of isolation in the West, espcially after the 1988 Lockerbie boming, which killed 270 people and was believed to have been planned from Libya. However, despite a bizarre speech in front of the UN in 2009, world leaders began engaging with Libya in the mid- 2000's. The U.S. restored full diplamtic relations with the country in 2006.
U.S. President Barack Obama met Qaddafi at a Group of 8 meetting in Italy in 2009.

Photo no. 25
The unidentified man is Dzemal Bijedic from the former Yugoslavia, and judging by the architecture in the background the picture was taken somewhere in Yugoslavia as well.

I wonder what Human Rights
I wonder what Human Rights Watch is doing at the Qaddafi compound? Do they have mandate to take or should I say 'loot' goods from a post conflict zone which used to belong to a dictator? Its really interesting, cause ,hypothetically,if pro-qaddafi forces take away personal belongings from a houseowner,may be focefully in a time when they were power, perhaps the HRW would condemned it as violation of human rights.Having said that,I must say thanks for opening up Qaddafi's life:)

It's Amazing
I don't believe Gaddifi started out power hungry. But it is amazing what power can do to an individual. Which through time can destroy a nation and alienate its people. Sad but true.
