Wasn't the Lockerbie Pan Am bombing a retaliation for this air raid on Libya? Or was that press speculation/linkage?

Wasn't Lockerbie in 1987 (at least 9 months later)?

If true, the point: Those of us who think that because there haven't been any terrorist hits in the US as a result of the Iraq War need to hold the celebration for a while, like maybe 2 years. Doesn't mean was wasn't justified (of course it was).

The Locerbie bombing was 21 December 1988. It might have been retaliation but I'm not sure there was ever any linkage made.
