Two women, with about 200 other young women, hold the Koran as they leave after a meeting with Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi at a Libyan cultural centre in Rome August 30, 2010. Gaddafi's attempt to convert dozens of young women to Islam during a visit to Italy led to an angry reaction from Italian media on Monday. The mercurial Gaddafi invited a large group of young women hired by a hostess agency to an event at the centre in Rome on Sunday and tried to convert them to Islam, and the event was due to be repeated on Monday. Gaddafi is in Rome for a two-day visit. REUTERS/Remo Casilli (ITALY - Tags: POLITICS RELIGION)
