It was the worst terrorist attack in Britain's history, the deadliest assault on U.S. civilians until 9/11 and a political powder keg that roiled governments around the world.

The fact that he still draws a breath speaks to how feckless our black ops have actually become.
Freed Lockerbie Bomber May Live Five More Years!!!
Ummmmm..., what?! Did Benny Hinn lay hands on him or what?
Were the Brits duped, or was it simply their crappy socialist health care system that couldn’t help this guy? I hear their cancer survival rates suck.
They need to make a call to Massoud.
Looks like the Big Mew will be off his Scotch for quite a while longer...
Haven’t drunk a drop of Scotch since this decision and won’t ever again!
“Were the Brits duped, or was it simply their crappy socialist health care system that couldn’t help this guy? I hear their cancer survival rates suck.”
Does make one wonder what the real story is.
The Brits just looked at the hospital infection rates and figured MRSA would have got him a long time ago by now...
what is hillary saying about this?
I’m predicting at least eight more years if Obama is reelected.
I predicting till Feb 2012 if a conservative Republican takes the White House

If the CIA was any good, he’d die of lead poisoning long before that.
She’s looking for the RESET button...
