Englewood, NJ – A northern New Jersey mayor is going to court to stop renovation work at the mansion where Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi wants to stay next month when he addresses the United Nations General Assembly.

Englewood Mayor Michael Wildes says if the federal government won’t do the right thing and keep Gadhafi out of a community where he’s not welcome, he will.
Libyan intelligence is widely believed to have orchestrated the 1988 attack on Pan American flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, which killed all 259 aboard — including 38 people from New Jersey.
Gadhafi gave a hero’s welcome to the only man arrested in that attack when the bomber was released last week from a Scottish prison.
Wildes says mansion workers have violated numerous city ordinances.

As far as I know, since its officially a diplomatic residence, the mayor has no right to stop anything. Its similar to the fight nyc has every couple of years with diplomatic plates parking wherever and whenever…
Everyone should join his cause.
No terrorist should come camping in this country.
Shouldn’t the very fact that his tent being set up in Englewood may cause riots be a good enough reason for him to be prevented from going there? Someone should arrange some kind of protest if he comes, so that this doesn’t happen.
terrorist covered & praised by any one are terrorist alike. Let him stay home that TERRORIST.
