Bush didn't say that Gadhafi disarmed because of fear of conflict, Gadhafi 
said that. Perhaps Gadhafi was talking out of his backside to win favor for 
sanction-ending goodies when he made those remarks, but they are in the public 
record.
But there was no reason for him to be scared,
because there was no US plan to attack Lybia after
Iraq; Syria, Iran, and North Korea were being
mentioned as possible candidates.

How do we know that?
