A bizarre photograph album filled page to page with pictures of Condoleezza Rice has been found at the compound of Colonel Gaddafi.

利比亚反对派在洗劫卡扎菲住所时发现了他珍藏的“赖斯相册”,里面贴满了康多莉扎·赖斯的照片,令人惊异。

As citizens ransacked1(洗劫) the sprawling2 lair3, a number of unusual items have been looted.

Perhaps the most surprising, however, was the album, filled with glossy4 pictures of America's former Secretary of State.

Colonel Gaddafi had previously5 hinted at a serious admiration6 for Rice.

In an interview with Al-Jazeera television in 2007, he hinted that then-President George W. Bush's top diplomat7 wielded8 considerable influence in the Arab world.

'I support my darling black African woman,' he said at the time. 'I admire and am very proud of the way she leans back and gives orders to the Arab leaders. ... Leezza, Leezza, Leezza. ... I love her very much. I admire her, and I'm proud of her, because she's a black woman of African origin.'

The following year, Gaddafi and Rice had an opportunity to meet when the secretary of state paid a historic visit to Libya - one that made steps toward normalising relations after the United States went decades without an ambassador in Tripoli.

She said during the trip that the U.S. 'doesn't have any permanent enemies.'

Gaddafi welcomed Rice in his home - one that President Ronald Reagan once ordered bombed in retaliation9(报复) for Libya's attack on a German disco - for the traditional meal that ends the daylight fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

Once again, he repeatedly addressed Rice - known as 'Condi' to her friends - as 'Leezza'.

During the visit, he presented Rice with a diamond ring, a lute10, a locket with an engraved11 likeness12 of himself inside and an inscribed13 edition of The Green Book'.

Together, the haul was worth $212,000.
