Still another new admirer of Gaddafi is Pakistan's President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, who recently renamed the stadium in Lahore Muammar Gaddafi Stadium in gratitude for Libyan assistance-reportedly including the loan of U.S.-built F-5 fighters-to Moslem Pakistan during the war with India last December. Socialist Prime Minister Dom Mintoff of predominantly Roman Catholic Malta is also in on Gaddafi's personal foreign aid program.
