Rice set for historic Libya visit, meeting Gaddafi By Sue Pleming

LISBON (Reuters) - Condoleezza Rice travels to Libya on Friday, the first trip there by a U.S. secretary of state in 55 years, signaling improved ties between the two countries.

Relations began to warm after Libya gave up its weapons of mass destruction program in 2003, but Rice held back on visiting the former pariah state until a compensation package was signed last month to cover legal claims involving victims of U.S. and Libyan bombings.

Gaddafi made it thru alive.

It'd be ironic if an Islamic group kills him next week for meeting with her.
