In any case, it is hardly being nice to the bomber with advanced cancer, when you return him to a country with no cancer care! |
One of the nation state sponsors of Terrorism, going back a long way is Libya; Kuadaffi (<--seen it spelled about 12 different ways, Momar for clarification) visited the PM, TWICE in the month before the release?
Me thinks
Norway only gets the news BBC feels fit to print/desseminate;
My apologies for taking the thread (further) off topic; and yes, for what it's worth also have to read BBC to get the "truth"/real news about what's going on here in the states...often;
As for sending him home, it sure is amazing how he could barely crawl up the ladder leaving, and was DANCING down the stairs upon arrival? Momar now has a national symbol to tout; If You think the full weight of the governments' financial resources won't be dedicated to curing his cancer (including trip{s} to Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Kuwait and/or the UAE which have some of the best cancer treatment centers in the world) won't be mustered, further think You're sadly mistaken. National Heroes don't get tossed to the trash heap of
history...prematurely. The Cost of the aircraft to fly his fanny home was far less than a full recovery and series of surgeries to remedy his
current malady.
He should have died in prison...or worse.
There are 200+ American Families who were negatively touched by his actions. They find no sympathy for him, years later.
This act (on the part of Scotland & "possibly" the PM) was a sharp stick in every
family members' eye.
now the news (here) claims that radical fronts within Other States Sponsoring Terrorism are already putting pressure on Their leadership to "Play their cards" the way Momar did?
Giving tacit approval (by releasing prisoners) of murderous conduct, breeds more murderous conduct. Next time, sadly, it'll probably be a Scotish target. Like
Piracy, or attempted
Piracy, I believe the "justice" should be swift and severe. If people are willing to "meet allah (or whoever) in an attempt to seize our vessel, we'll relentllessly attempt to grant them their wish while repelling unwanted/unauthorized boarders.
my opinion only;
