Libya had been under [[Muammar Gaddafi]] since 1969. The United States broke relations in 1981 and considered it a state sponsor of terror after a series incidents culminating in the shoot down of Pan AM Flight 103 over Lockerbie Scotland in 1988. Libya had a WMD program. Western powers laid out a series of demands to met to re-establish normal relations. By 1999, Muammar Gaddafi had a change of heart, and began complying step-by-step in order to be welcomed back within the "community of nations". Gaddafi renounced and gave up his WMD. He paid reparations to the families of victims of Flight 103; he condemned the September 11 attacks. Trade was restored. Gaddafi had become the model the Western powers used to encourage dictators such as [[Saddam Hussein]], Bashar Assad, Kim Jong-il, and others, that they could remain in power and enjoy trade and relations with the international community.
Then Hillary became Secretary of State.
