I'm not all that familiar with the polticial face of Lybia... were they Hussein backers?
Now there's a whale of a conspiracy theory! I'll bet my last dollar that the equipment and agents that Libya had were certainly their own, though. Those UN sanctions certainly did some good in Libya, too, since just about every intelligence agency around the globe was stunned at the advancement and size of the Libyan WMD program...
I honestly have no clue about Libyan relations with any Middle-Eastern governments (I can barely recall hearing much of anything about them since the late '80s). Ever since some of his family was killed when Reagan sent over those F-111s to bomb the Hell out of his compounds in '86, he's kept a fairly low profile, at least on the international stage.
Some of Qadaffi's political aims were very similar to Hussein's in terms of Arab Nationalism, but that's exhausted my knowledge on the man and the state of Libya these days.
