If you don't release him, he will die soon, and you disregarded humanitarian consideration.<br /><br />If you do release him, he may life much longer, and so he shouldn't have been released.<br /><br />In many countries, year-long jail sentences are known as half death-sentences.<br /><br />The general US-opinion seems to be, that this is the way it better be in Scotland too.<br /><br />- - -<br /><br />"A US Senate hearing into BP's alleged involvement in the release of the Lockerbie bomber... "<br /><br />Is that really what it says? It's sad, so sad, and it's getting more and more absurd.<br /><br />- - -<br /><br />That the conviction of Megrahi needed a 2M$++ bribe to the material witness seems not to interest the US senate at all. <br /><br />I wonder why? Could it be that something is rotten..?SMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272238187226269250noreply@blogger.com
