Sad, and sickening...
Elvis..or the pope?
If you mean the Pope,..the point is numerous world leaders officialy receive leadership that propagates a warped culture. You need to take off your catholic-centric hat for a moment and take look at the earth from the moon and realize we have some real f-ing problems here, but as long as we sleep soundly at night, and college football is on Saturdays, no one cares. 9/11 is turning into a speed bump.
overwhelming interests to make UK a global joke
“Gordon Brown” is just as much of an internazi as Obama.
too true
British interests:
This is thanks to 12 years of a liberal labour Govt, thank god they are going to be swept out next year in a tidal wave and the UK conservatives back in control. Hopefully we will see changes.
Terrorist for Oil......great. =.=
Well, let’s be logical about this. How much blood did the passengers on the Lockerbie aircraft have? No doubt barely enough to fill up one crude-oil sized barrel, if that much. So that small amount of blood, the retribution for which has now been waived, will purchase millions and millions of gallons of oil. While blood may be thicker than water, it is most definitely not thicker than crude oil, which is considerably more expensive and lucrative. So, all things considered, it was a fair exchange. A few more years in jail for Megrahi would not have brought the victims back, but a few years less have brought all that lovely crude to the UK.
Oh, you retort, but what about justice? Well, didn’t a great Roman orator once say that it’s better to let a dozen guilty men go free than to punish one innocent? So, Megrahi is just one guilty man. The British government and the huge, honking corporation that’s going to buy all that oil, are dozens of men who, whatever else you can say about them, didn’t explode any airplanes full of passengers. So if they don’t get their oil deal, they’re being punished, aren’t they? So, very much in keeping with that maxim, only one guilty man has gone free, and dozens of innocent men are not being punished. So everyone should be happy, shouldn’t they?
Hey? Did I say something wrong? Well, don’t blame me. PM Brown sent me out here to explain it all. It wasn’t my idea. Will the families of the Lockerbie dead please put down those torches and pitch forks? OK. Gotta run. ‘bye.
Daniel Hannen!!!
Bomber for oil.
So.....does Mehrahi have cancer or not? It sounds like the entire cancer thing was a lie. They started negotiating this deal 2 years ago.
I watched,last night on C-SPAN,much of the debate that took place in the Scottish Parliament after he was released.Knowing what we know now about the terrorist-for-oil deal,listening to that government official lying through his teeth was both intriguing and disgusting.
