Greetings to All !!
( A "macro" issue...seeking "micro" views )
( Not a new subject [ 2 days old now ]....but still twist a nerve or two )
The traditional, mutual, informal, and voluntary recognition
and respect of another nation's acts, laws, and judicial
decisions commonly refered to as: "Comity of Nations",
was shot all to hell yesterday; when a Minister of Justice in
Scotland / UK released the accused, and found-guilty, Libyan
terrorist who was held responsible and serving a life-sentence
for the downing of a 747 jumbo jet, which killed 270 innocent
people on December 21, 1988, over the skies of Lockerbee, Scotland.
The Scottish Minister of Justice stated that his decision was
based upon "compassionate" and "humanitarian" reasons; as
the terrorist was diagnoised with terminal prostate cancer,
and is expected to die within 90 days.
Some suggest that the terrorist's powerful and well connect
family was instrumental in the terrorist's release; and that the
terrorist is not ill at all.
This breach of the 270 victim's family's trust in justice was
shattered by one individual; who many believe was carrying
out orders from "above" ( UK Govt ), because the UK wants
Libya to provide the UK with 80% of it's oil needs; which would
double the oil imports....from the current 40%.
Thus far, the Obama White House has only offered "lip-service",
in hopes of pacifying the people's objections.
Many suggest that Obama ( US Govt ) should respond to Scotland
( UK ) and Lybia with much more than "words"; leaving open the
*remote* possibility of a more forceful form of responce sometime
in the future. ( Kadafee [ sp ] is expected to speak @ the UN next month )
