US relative's reaction to Libya gaining seat on UN Security Council

Libya has been elected to membership of the Security Council of the United Nations. The United States did not propone an alternative candidate.

'Susan Cohen, of Cape May Court House, N.J., who lost her 20-year-old daughter, Theodora, in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, said the United States should oppose Libya's candidacy for a seat because Libyan leader Moamar Gadhafi was responsible for the attack.

' "I feel that the U.S. has totally lost its moral compass,'' she told The Associated Press. "Gadhafi blew up an American plane.'' '
