If true, the reasons for adopting  a policy of assassination against Gaddaffi is NOT the issue. The issue is the implementation of  an actual assassination attempt. Moreover if evidence emerges that this was the intention of the West i.e  the US and the Queen UK's Commander-in-Chief of her military via NATO air strikes, then in the months and years  to come they (the West) may come to regret their action. An action that will be perceived world wide as setting  a precedent , or green light if you wish, for people/governments/groups that are opposed to the West's military intervention in Libya and elsewhere  to carry out parallel assassination attempts. Heads-of-State and other foreign policy making  people  in the West could find that they are earmarked  as  targets for  assassination in the future.  This could set in motion a dangerous tit-for-tat precedent; a form of two tier hypocrisy, two tier morality  which should be avoided.  William Gladys.
