The freed Lockerbie bomber will today celebrate his birthday in a Libyan mansion - almost eight months after the 'dying' man was released from prison.

Abdelbaset Ali Mohamed al-Megrahi is said to have made a 'remarkable recovery' after being allowed to return home from a Scottish jail on compassionate grounds last year.

The prostate cancer sufferer will 'quietly mark' his 58th birthday in Tripoli with family, friends and Libyan government officials who will be 'enjoying a dignified celebration and thanking God for his survival'.

Triumphant return: Megrahi, left, with Colonel Gaddafi's second son Saif

I am so go***** speechless, breathless and astounded by this revelation that the Lockerbie bomber, Abdelbaset Al-Megrahi has celebrated his 58th birthday at a mansion with his immediate family, and friends of his and Colonel Gaddafi's.

Man, this Libyan spy whose bomb in a tape recorder which destroyed Pan Am Flight 103 cannot get any more jubilant...

The false God, Allah, helped secure his release from a Scottish jail, and is in the safe arms of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi.

He can still die of course ~ just depends on who wants it and when.

[clintonh8r]

There was a time when a few Americans would have been sent to take this guy out in his sleep.

[SandRat]

Must have been the Haggis that was making him sickly. LOL

[dalebert]

what a bunch of liars

[EternalVigilance]

Failure to deal effectively and appropriately with the violent and the criminal is a sign of a civilization’s imminent demise.

So long “Great” Britain, it was nice knowing ya...

[Rocky]

Scotland, Scotland, you’re our friends.
Your kindness to our foes ne’er ends.
You’ll love the oil that Lybia sends.
And we’ll remember our good friends.

So this means either Libya’s health care system is better than that of the UK... or the Scottish government is run by a bunch of morons.

[omega4179]

Or NHS socialist medicine failing to treat him so falsely declared him terminal.

[iowamark]

The real question is how much the British government was paid to release him.

[Lorianne]

Wow, Libya must have a REALLY good health care system.
We should adopt their system /s

Nice piece of poetry there.

[Rocky]

Thanks. Hope it makes its way to that politician in Scotland who sold us out.

[healy61]

I never thought he was ill for a moment. I have wondered if some of the scots were on the take.

[mowowie]

I went to high school with a girl that was killed by this creature.

In the words of the Prophet - we’ve been had.
