Description

In the aftermath of US air raids on Libya, Dr Ramadan Salim describes the injuries sustained by a family in a residential area in which an American bomb landed. A father and his 3 year-old child were killed in the attack. The doctor claims this will give the Libyan people more reason to hate America, and that it is in fact US President, Ronald Reagan who is committing the terrorist acts.
