Subject: Compassionate UK
eldnah    8/20/2009 12:55:26 PM
Today the UK is releasing to Libya, al-Magrahi the convicted Lockerbie bomber who killed 246 passengers and 16 crew members with 11 collateral deaths on the ground. Apparently he has prostate cancer and for compassionate reasons he is being sent home. It seems he spent 10 months in prison for each of the 11 Scots who died and 33 seconds for each of the 266 murdered on the plane. Thank God he wasn't tried in the US, those barbarous Americans may have executed him.

Yellichink,




Perhaps if you checked the context, you would notice that I was responding to the comment that al-Magrahi served 10 months per person. I didn't address the Lybian reaction at all. Perhaps you could address what I wrote rather than making something up to be outraged about.




Political releases are pretty sucky and all countries seem to do it.

Help me out. I had a lot of trouble in the third grade. 277 victims.......10 months per victim...........2770 months.........divide by 12........231years served????  My allocation of time served was 10 months for each of the collateral deaths of innocent Scottish civilians on the ground and 33 seconds for each of the spawn of the murderous US nation and its allies riding on the plane built by the evil Boeing. Just thought I'd try a little dialectical materialism.

Jack Straw agrees that it was due to trade and BP deals that facilitated the release. Hey why am I not surprised? Given Britains' glorious compassionate history.
