I'm not Russian and it is not paranoid to post the fact that Britain is giving exile to Islamic terrorists like Zakayev and criminals like Berezovsky who have openly called for the violent overthrow of the Russian government.

Again, keep your head in the sand and scream "la la la" all you want.

No, but it is paranoid to believe that Lukavoy wouldn’t get a fair hearing because the British government wants to damage Russia’s image.

I haven’t commented on the Zakayev case because I don’t know that much about it but the reason given by the British judge at the time was that (a) there was no extradition treaty with Russia (b) the accused could face the death penalty which the British do not have and (c) it violated the European Community’s policy on Human Rights. The latter was the reason Germany permitted Zakayev to travel in and out of their country at the time of the Schroeder government.
