Gadhafi urges end to all WMD
BRUSSELS, Belgium (CNN) -- Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi has appealed to all nations to follow his country's example and eliminate all weapons of mass destruction.

"This is a true opportunity for real historic peace," Gadhafi told journalists in Brussels Tuesday during his first official visit to Europe in more than 15 years.

"We say to America and we declare to Europe, we say confidently and we say it loudly, we should not waste this opportunity."

Speaking through a translator, Gadhafi said: "Libya calls on all countries, from America to China, to discard and get rid of all WMD. Libya has become an example to be followed.

"I believe that Europe has learned the lesson and will not continue colonization," Gadhafi said. "For this reason Libya, which was a leader in the third world liberation, now has decided to lead the peace movement all over the world."

1. Did you ever think you'd live to see Gadhafi a potential Nobel winner?

3. Does this include Israel's WMD?
If the Middle East is to be WMD-free, Israel must submit to inspections as well as Iran.

4. shhh!
that kind of talk will get your regime changed.
Its one of Saddam's arguments that diplomatic resolution of WMD's in Iraq should include WMD's in the whole middle east specifically Israel. Thats an unacceptable 'linkage' that the US couldn't accept, they just wanted Iraq to bow down and submit to a public strip search.
