Cairo - In a rare show of support for the United States, Libya leader Muammar Gaddafi said on Sunday that America had the right to take revenge for the terror attacks on New York and Washington.
"The USA has the right to take revenge, but will this put an end to the problem?" he said on Libyan TV. "America is a superpower that can erase the world in one day. It can hit Afghanistan."
But Gaddafi added, "There is nothing in Afghanistan," and if the United States occupies Afghanistan, "it will not be in its interests".
Libya has been at odds with Washington over US accusations that is supports terrorism. But after the attacks last Tuesday, Gaddafi expressed his condemnation of the devastation and support for the American victims.

On Sunday, he said the nations of the world have to get together and "determine the reasons" why terrorism develops.
Gaddafi urged Libyans to follow the example of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat and donate blood for the victims of the attacks.
"The American people are in need of blood. Give your blood," he said. - Sapa-AP
