Sean would definitely read this on the air. BTW, I heard that Clarke also proposed to the Reagan White House that an SR-71 plane be flown low over the Libyan desert so the sonic booms could frighten Khadaffi. Can anyone find documentation on this?

In 1986, as a State Department bureaucrat with pull, he came up with a plan to battle terrorism and subvert Muammar Qaddafi by having SR-71s produce sonic booms over Libya. This was to be accompanied by rafts washing onto the sands of Tripoli, the aim of which was to create the illusion of a coming attack. When this nonsense was revealed, it created embarrassment for the Reagan administration and was buried.
