The recent Western European bow to an Islamic terrorist encounters at least a few men in Washington on bitter. Libyans Abdel Baset
The al-Megrahi was the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland in which 270 people died in their responsibility. Not until 2001 that the Libyan intelligence officer was veruteilt to life in prison. Because al-Megrahi has prostate cancer in the final stage, he was released this week from prison. Kenny MacAskill, Scotland's Justice Minister said that this step was for humanitarian reasons. A real explanation why a life sentence in this case is not really meant for life and why such a mass murderer can not just die in a prison, he was guilty.
The summit of the whole story was received that Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, on his arrival in Libya as a hero and was cheered.
The exact reasons MacAskill's decision, meanwhile, are unclear. Libya's dictator Gaddafi also thanked Queen Elizabeth and her son Andrew, all of which have contributed to the historic and courageous decision of the Scottish government. " The members referred to the British royal family have a stake, however, on its own. Also disputed is that the release of the price for greater access to the oil and gas reserves of Libya was.
the right words for this joke, which unfortunately is not found to laugh, now U.S. Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and FBI Director Robert Mueller. The former spoke of "a clear political decision," the outside its capacity and lay have appalled him. Mueller said the dhimmi MacAskill a letter with sentences that would otherwise in the diplomatic world are probably less common: "I am outraged by your decision, they have bluntly defended on the basis of 'compassion' is, it is. He also called for the release of al-Megrahi "is as inexplicable as harmful to the cause of justice." constitutes in fact this is a "mockery of the rule of law. encouraged terrorists and their actions around the world [...]"
addition, Mueller, mock the release of the terrorist al-Megrahi all those of the Lockerbie tragedy were and are affected: the families of the victims, the medical personnel who contributed to the crash site first aid, and hundreds of FBI agents and Scottish police. He closes the letter with the pertinent question: "Where is the justice?"
you have to look not to Afghanistan. Even with such actions, the war on terror is gradually lost. Ultimately, this defeat has only one reason: The Islamists had a weak opponent.
