this is currently untrue. you can export all you want from Libya now without
state department aproval. Most trade sanctions against the country have been
lifted since their acceptance of responsibility over the lockerbie bombing
and efforts to have an internationally verified dismantlement of their
weapons of mass destruction programs..

the only trade with Libya that is stillo illegal involvs SELLING them high
speed computers. weapons, and hardware used int he production of certain
military items.
