Lockerbie

[Stewie]

but sometimes in life we have a choice.eitehr our own eye or the others eye.If these ppl and ppl like him show no compassion to victims and are left off just because they get sick then it will actually encourage the stuff.Do we know that any woman on that plane was pregnant?Do we know that anyone on that ppl was sick?

Im all for forgiveness and the like but im also all for calling a spade a spade and cunts like this deserve no respect in my eyes because they didnt do anything to get it.

The guy is not just sick he is dying the medical opinion I believe is that he has less than 3 months to live how will keeping a man dying of cancer in jail for a few more weeks until he actually dies save anybodies eye.

While I agree that this crime was terrible if people are truly interested in justice then the people who sent him to do this are still in power and now on friendly terms with the UK and the US those people should be jailed let's not stop there couple of very well known UK and US citizens are guilty of mass murder as well let's get them locked up as well.

bear in mind this ridiculous thing in Ireland called remission whereby people who have committed serious crimes in this country get a quarter of their sentence deducted provided they don't step out of line inside, bear in mind people who commit serious crimes who get 'time off' for 'good behavior'() compare this to this Lockerbie situation is it really worth arguing the release of someone whos gonna be dead in 3weeks?

All I can say is that Im glad Im not that the pilot flying him home

but personnally i wouldnt give him a day of freedom for what he did.Its just a personal opinion.In fact i would have him put to death so he wouldnt even be after spending the time in jail.Im sorry and nobody can throw this back at me because i have post both parents to cancer but cancer is no excuse for allowing an animal like this out even for a brief period.Do we allow child killers and child molesters out so?

The second part of your post i agree with but the thing is the prepertrator is as guilty as those who masterminded it because he had the power to say no or to keep out of it.He choose not to and went ahead and killed innocent ppl.In fact its those ppl you speak about are the ones he shpould have aimed his vengence on.

back to a heroes welcome.

Disgraceful...........

Britain, US slam Libya over Lockerbie bomber welcome - Yahoo! News UK

[hornynaomi]

i just seen the news on internet from my country and he was welcomed in Libia as a "rock star" the journalist used that phrase...well it was true..thousands of people on the streets...shocking

Did not IRA 'terrorists' receive heroes welcomes and abridged sentences after Good Friday.

Us Irish have far more in common with the Arabs and little oppressed nations than the colonialists of the West. I think that sometimes we forget this.

To understand the Libyans is not to condone or agree. I understand the IRA but I thought they were wrong.

Smarty expressed many points which I agree with.

Western atrocities receive much less attention than Islamic atrocities.

Remeber the original September 11 - Chile 1973. Remember Mohammed Mosaddeq 1953.

You should note that the terrorists do not attack the Swiss or the Swedes because they have no grievance with them. Things happen for a reason.

Did Ronald Reagan apologise for the bombing of Libya in 1986? Did he serve time ?

but this was the only way to get lasting peace in the north.It took concessions all around.This is a case of a brokerage of peace in theis country not some *** who bombed a plane for nothing.

I'm with Smarty on this one:

He was released when he agreed to drop his appeal against his conviction. If his appeal had gone ahead evidence would have shown that it was Iran who was behind the bombing in retaliation for the US Navy having shot down an Iranian airliner. This did not suit the U.S. who wanted to maintain relations with Iran with whom they had energy related agreements in place at the time.

While it was undoubtedly wrong and mass murder it is nonsense to say that the plane was bombed for nothing. The plane was targeted because it was an American plane and it was probably retaliation for the Americans shooting down the Iranian airliner and the bombing of Tripoli in 1986.

Of course the difference between the 270 people killed in Lockerbie and the 290 killed on the Iranian flight including 66 children was that the US gave the people who shot down a civilian plane medals. Bit of a double standard to complain about the lybians welcoming back this guy when they did the same to the murders in their own ranks.
