advocate Reem El Debri, said she assumed that the West would support the son of the ex-Libyan president, Saif al-Islam Qadaffy, in his bid to become president of the North African country, during an interview from Cairo on Friday.

"I think now they [the West] start understanding there’s a mistake they were doing in Libya before. Now they are suffering from this problem. I think they want to solve it and go out of all of this that is happening in Libya. I think they are going to support [the bid]," she said.

El Debri went on to describe why she thought Saif al-Islam could be considered a good choice for Libya.. She said in 2011 he had predicted the exact situation the country now faces.

"Dr. Saif al-Islam has good projects for Libya. He tried to work with the West to solve all these problems. He did many things to make Libya to be a new Libya," she stated.

#2  You mean back when Daddy Khadaffy’s money was buying him degrees, newc, finishing up with a ghostwritten PhD from the London School of Economics?

Separately, is he still wanted by the ICC for war crimes?
