You tend to wish the worst on your enemies

Ghadaffi sent a letter to our illustrious president.  In it, among other things, he wrote:

"We have been hurt more morally (than) physically because of what had happened against us in both deeds and words by you [..] Despite all this, you will always remain our son whatever happened. We still pray that you continue to be president of the U.S.A. We Endeavour and hope that you will gain victory in the new election campaigne."
