Five Bulgarian nurses and a Palestinian doctor are to be shot by a firing squad, a Lybian court decided. They deliberately infected 426 children with the HIV virus, said the verdict

Libya's foreign minister said it was now up to Libya's Supreme Court. "Libya will never deal with such pressure from any side - from America, from Europe, from anywhere," Abdurrahman Shalgham said. "No-one can intervene in our justice - no-one. Even our leader, Colonel Qaddafi, can't intervene. That should be quite clear."

Talk about the government scapegoating a group of people. These poor health workers are there to help the population and then are given a death sentence.

And I though Lybia was working its way on becoming a normal country.

Sad.......really sad.
