EDINBURGH, Scotland Scotland freed the terminally ill Lockerbie bomber on compassionate grounds Thursday, allowing him to die at home in Libya despite American protests that mercy should not be shown to the man responsible for the deaths of 270 people.
Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill said Abdel Baset al-Megrahi's condition had deteriorated from prostate cancer. Al-Megrahi had only served some eight years of a life sentence, but MacAskill said he was bound by Scottish values to release him.

Fox News apologized for the guy on audio heard shouting, He is a F-——ing Monster.
He’ll probably become a homicide bomber. What’s he got to lose?
Yes ma’am. He will go to “Allah” with cheering. Scottish pearls are wasted on swine.
I am watching this now on Fox News and couldn’t be more disgusted. Liberalism truly is a mental disorder and causes one’s mind to be diseased.
How long will it be before they send him here for cancer treatment?
Correction: Over the ocean. There. Feel better?
Can I point out some wrong information from Fox News.
1. The vast, vast majority of Scots are as angry as you.
2. Gordon Brown hasnt criticised this so this has the silent thumbs up from the British Government.
3. This has NOTHING to do with compassion. This is about a deal with Libya and a cover up because most people in the know dont think Megrahi did it. They believe his appeal would have shown that he did NOT do it. Many believe it was Iran and that the USA and UK know this.
4. Fox News says Megrahi is in Glasgow. This is wrong he is in Greenock.
5. Fox says a Judge released him. This is wrong, he was released by the Scottish Executives Justice Minister. A politician.

Yeah, because I am against innocent people being murdered. I would hope all Freepers agree with such a simple axiom.
The world’s a stage...
His final judge will not be giving any parole.
Does anyone else think that maybe Scotland has just created the next highly motivated suicide bomber?
wouldn’t you know compassion is only for the scum of the earth
Sickening
Thank you for the corrected information. Whoever committed the crime will pay one day to the Supreme Judge.

I’d like to show that Obama-hole some compassion right after I commandeer one of our attack drones.
