Travellers to the US from 14 "security risk" nations (read: those implicated in terrorist activities) are to undergo tougher screening rules - Libya among them, despite the new found love of all things peaceful.

The full list is:

Nigeria
Pakistan
Syria
Iran
Sudan
Yemen
Cuba
Afghanistan
Algeria
Iraq
Lebanon
Libya
Saudi Arabia,
Somalia

It'll be interesting to see if the Big Man makes anything of this, and what tit-for-tat he takes against the USA...

Do they keep paying you if you're stuck in a Libyan prison for more than 3 months?

That's the rub if the Canada experience is anything to go by for everybody they stop coming in there is an exit visa that is not issued, OK if you are the guy waiting not so much fun if you are stuck here.

Secretary General of the committee Mousa Kousa said "whatever the explanations he heard (from the ambassador) were," Libya will apply the reciprocity principle.

    If any Libyan citizen was exposed to such kind of treatment, whether inside or outside the United States, Tripoli will apply the same treatment to U.S. citizens coming to the country or staying in it, Kousa said.

    In response, the U.S. ambassador asked for some time to hold consultations with the U.S. administration over the issue.
