(Reuters) - The NATO bombing campaign which fatally weakened Muammar Gaddafi's rule had a secret asset: a 24-year-old Libyan woman who spent months spying on military facilities and passing on the details to the alliance.

The woman, operating under the codename Nomidia, used elaborate methods to evade capture -- constantly changing her location, using multiple mobile telephone SIM cards and hiding her activities from all but the closest members of her family.

Her biggest protection against arrest by Gaddafi's security forces though was her gender: as a young woman in Libya's conservative Muslim society, they did not suspect her.

3. Samuel Adams?

2. It's a good thing all the repressive societies in the Muslim world have been overthrown..

And replaced with democracies.

Otherwise releasing this information would make it more difficult for other Muslim women to do the same thing in the future.

4. I hope NATO will now protect her

Because if they figure out who she is, she and her whole family could end up dead.

5. Well, I hope it's NATO and not the US, otherwise she might end up like this guy...

she might end up like this guy...(granted, this was during morons* reign of terror)

In 2003, Alanssi was the subject of a Washington Post story describing his role as an informant for the FBI, providing information on terrorist financiers in Yemen.

Alanssi, of Falls Church, Va., told the Post in recent interviews that he was upset because he could not travel to Yemen to visit his ailing wife, who has stomach cancer. He also said the FBI had not kept promises it made to him to secure his assistance.
