Defection of Libya's 'Envoy of Death' seen as potential intel bonanza
U.S. intelligence agencies are expecting a windfall of intelligence on the weapons of mass destruction programs of rogue states as a result of the defection to Britain of former Libyan intelligence chief Musa Kusa.
Kusa directed Libya's covert nuclear, chemical and biological arms programs during the 1990s and has intimate knowledge of the covert nuclear supplier networks used to acquire goods for the programs, including the supplier group headed by Pakistan's A.Q. Khan that provide nuclear and WMD gear and know how to Syria, Iran and North Korea, according to a former U.S. intelligence official familiar with Kusa.
