Responsibility to Protest: After Lockerbie

This is the title of issue 106 of The Spokesman, the quarterly journal of the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation. Amongst other interesting contributions from Noam Chomsky, John Pilger and Tony Blair, it contains a section consisting of four Lockerbie articles (previously published elsewhere) by Hans Koechler ("Unfair Trial"), Marcello Mega (Lockerbie -- the Cover-up"), Tam Dalyell ("The Crime of Lockerbie") and myself ("Lockerbie and the Law") and a long editorial ("After Lockerbie") by Ken Coates. The journal (ISBN: 978 0 85124 7724) can be obtained through the Spokesman Books website.

Comments

Readers are invited to comment on blog posts. All comments require to be pre-moderated by me, and I shall reject all (a) that are not related to the Lockerbie disaster or (b) that fail to meet my -- perhaps idiosyncratic -- standards of courtesy towards other contributors. Comments will not be rejected simply because I disagree with them or because I, or other contributors, find them irritating. But comments will be rejected if they distort or misrepresent the evidence; are defamatory; or if they risk embroiling me, as publisher, in defamation proceedings. I am perfectly relaxed about being sued in respect of material which I personally have posted -- but not in respect of material that others wish to post as comments and which, in any case, I often strongly disagree with.

Particularly during my sojourns in South Africa, it may not be possible for me to perform the moderation function speedily. I regret the necessity of moderation but it has been rendered inevitable by the behaviour of a particular commentator whose contributions will always and without exception be rejected.

No correspondence will be entered into regarding moderation decisions.
