When Muammar Qadhafi first became Libya's dictator, Heikal was dispatched to meet and evaluate him by Egypt's ruler, Gamal Abdel Nasser. After returning to Cairo, Heikal was quickly ushered into the president's office.

"Well," said Egypt's president, "what do you think of Qadhafi?"

"He's a disaster! A catastrophe!"

"Why," asked the president, "is he against us?"

"Oh no, far worse than that," Heikal claims to have replied. "He's for us and he really believes all the stuff we are saying!"
