:03:31. > :03:38.talk about Moussa Koussa, as we heard in Ben's piece there, who
:03:38. > :03:40.defected a few months ago? I think it re-opens the whole question of
:03:40. > :03:46.how Moussa Koussa was straet treated after he defected to
:03:46. > :03:51.Britain in March this year. There was talk he might be indicted for
:03:51. > :03:55.his alleged role in the Lockerbie bombs and perhaps in the killing of
:03:55. > :04:00.WPC Yvonne Fletcher. Britain allowed him to move quietly to
:04:00. > :04:04.Qatar in the Gulf where he is said still to be. Perhaps, Britain felt
:04:04. > :04:08.they owed him one. There is a question too about the relationship
:04:08. > :04:13.of NATO countries, Britain and and America, with the military
:04:13. > :04:18.commander here in trip and his allies. It's not just a matter of
:04:18. > :04:23.irony that they once got him arrested and then tortured. This
:04:23. > :04:28.comes out in the documents, by Moussa Koussa and the Libyan
:04:28. > :04:31.authorities. It's also a bad way to start a relationship. And, it also,
