I was recently watching Adam Curtis' excellent documentary HyperNormalization. In it, I came across Curtis' idea that Hafez Al-Assad, not Gaddafi, was behind the Lockerbie Bombing, and that Gaddafi was blamed by American security forces because he was a cartoonish buffoon and not a smart, crafty man like Poppy Assad.
Is this Grassy Knoll insanity, or is this a legit possibility?
