Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi (R) welcomes US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in a government compound in central Tripoli in this video grab taken September 5, 2008. Rice met Gaddafi -- once reviled as a "mad dog" by a US president -- on Friday on a historic visit which she said proved that Washington had no permanent enemies. Rice is making the first trip by a US secretary of state to the North African country in 45 years, a move intended to end decades of enmity and violence five years after Libya gave up its weapons of mass destruction program.
