to the determination that this was the libyans that carried out the attacks, my own personal view was that it was not enough just to go and seek to try the individual agent who was acting on behalf of libya. 0bviously intelligent service doesn t go off on its own and do these things. so i felt we had to take direct action against libya and i felt that we should establish the precedent at that point that if you attack or engage in this kind of mass atrocity terroristic attack on the united states that you will be signing your own death warrant. while abi agila masud was in custody in libya on separate charges, he confessed in his part in the lockerbie attack. are you convinced there s enough evidence to guarantee a conviction? that is the standard for using the department ofjustice which is we do not bring charges unless we have admissible evidence sufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that the individual is guilty. we know there was an interview
