| #2 *Libya has a problem with hard drug use so they try to solve it by restricting the sale of syringes and needles. Why not? Here in Washington state they are trying to prevent the meth labs by..... restricting the sale of cold medication..... Now they want it as a federal law.... |

| #1 They aren't shy. So let's get it straight: *Libya has a problem with hard drug use so they try to solve it by restricting the sale of syringes and needles. *Could be that the re-use of unsterilized needles contributed to the spread of aids in the hospital. *And/or it could be that some of the mothers have AIDS, infecting their children at birth. So the families most probably blamed the hospital authorities who in turn blamed the Bulgarian nurses and Palestinian doctor, and then the Libyan 'judicial' system took over. And now they are indicating that they might go easy on the nurses if the families get 'compensation'. And they say Libya used to be a terrorist state. |
