Yes, I'm reading that French book Ben Laden: La Vérité Interdite right now. The authors, Brisard and Dasquié, make the point in one of their chapter that London has been harboring Islamic militants from Libya who have tried to assassinate Khaddafy.

Here's an interesting statement from Gaddafi form October 16. Unfortunately, I cut out most of the parts where he ranted about the British, and the link is no longer valid.

Gadaffi: Our New Friend (Really!?)

Here's one from 10/24:

Define terrorism, urges Gaddafi

Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has entered the debate on terrorism - telling a TV interviewer that the US might just as well bomb London if it is serious about fighting terrorism.

"If the United States wants seriously to eradicate terrorism, the first capital that should be pounded with cruise missiles is London," Colonel Gaddafi said on the Arabic satellite news channel al-Jazeera.

"It is the shelter of terrorism," he added, referring to charges that Islamic militants suspected of violence are protected by Britain's policies on political asylum.

And here's an interesting analysis of Gaddafi's future:

BTW, is that the book that talks about the 6+2 threats against the Taliban regime before 9/11?
