Lockerbie bomber: Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi

[EMDEE]

I hear Megrahi has appeared on Libyan TV almost two years after his release, when he was expected to live for only 3 months.

[ionnsaigh]

Three cheers for medical science..... and the humanity shown by the Scottish Parliament.

[four eyes]

yep,another fine move by the Salmon,makes one proud to be Scottish.

[numberplease]

I think that Westminster may have had a bit to do with it as well.

[Govangirl]

Personally, I am not proud at all to be Scottish. Neither am I proud to be British in this whole farce.
Maybe Megrahi was innocent, maybe he wasn't but I am still full of disgust and outrage at all the lies told about Lockerbie at the trial, the immense pressure to get a conviction and the resulting denial of justice to the relatives of the dead.

what Lies? do we have any concrete proof of lies or other alleged cover-ups etc? This is an interesting case,but we have to be careful with allegations of this sort.

[gizmo]

Careful my a**e. The whole sorry shambles has been a disgrace, start to finish. Scottish parliament, British parliament they should both be ashamed of themselves.

Yes, that's why it is refreshing that the CURRENT Scottish Government did what they did and not bow to the pressures of the USA and Westminster. As you say, the whole case was a disgrace.

still waiting What lies? proof you have to do more than shout loudly, just because you think its a stitch up don't mean it is.

[ionnsaigh]

The Scottish government makes a unilateral decision ( Good bad or indifferent ) the very fact that our country decided despite Westminster or Washington's disapproval, must be ( for all lovers of Democracy ) a good thing. Or perhaps Scotland should toe the line ( get a few tips from the Unionist Labour Party ) and meekly bow to the dictates of foreign wishes.

Scotland has shown the world the spirit of Humanitarianism....... So for the first time in my life I'm proud to be Scottish.

[gizmo]

Theres your proof 4is, If Ionnsaigh agrees with you your wrong.

[four eyes]

I want the lies referred to earlier, which specific ones are you alluding to?

[bill]

TWO YEARS AND COUNTING.

[blueboyno1]

I wonder what will happen to Megrahi now that Libya is in the hands of the rebels and Gadaffi is on the run
