‘To my Dear Obama, our son'

March 19, 2011 11:46 pm | Updated November 17, 2021 02:43 am IST - Cairo:

Calling Barack Obama as “our son”, Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi sent a message to the U.S. President defending his decision to attack the rebels fighting to overthrow him.

Trying to strike a personal note, Mr. Qadhafi prefaced his letter saying, “To our son, his excellency, Mr Baracka Hussein Obama. I have said to you before, that even if Libya and the United States of America enter into a war, god forbid, you will always remain a son. Your picture will not be changed.”
