What the hell is Scotland thinking ???

[Mikey]

This is not a political thread .....

Scottish officials said the former Libyan intelligence officer's prostate cancer was advancing and that they were bound by Scottish values to release him.

Not a good day for us Scots.

Horrible! Shows what direction the world is going in! And people wonder why every country is about to enter or in a recession!

With these kind of people, you can't make them love you. The only way they will leave you alone, is if you have a bigger gun and make them scared of you. You don't have to use that gun (hopefully) but they can't know that. They must think you will. Until the world wakes up to that, this kind of garbage will keep happening and they will continue to think they can get away with murder because we will do nothing about it but try to make friends and tell them how sorry we are. (makes me kind of sick to my stomach)

Just my opinion (and the opinions of past winners of wars). But of course, in a perfect world peace rules. And I pray for one day for there to be that perfect world but it certainly isn't here yet. Keep your eyes open. We are hated. And, I personally didn't do a darn thing to deserve it. Did you?

If it had been the Scottish people who lost their lives on that plane, instead of Americans, I feel certain Scotland would not have considered any "compassion" for the pr*ck. What a joke.

I can't help thinking that the Scottish Government would not have done this without the full behind the scenes agreement of the British and American Governments.

Obama is saying what he is expected to say in public to appease the feelings of the American people.

As usual the only thing that really matters in all this is oil.

Of course i fully accept that i could be totally wrong.

A few American journalists have echoed your sentiments saying EVERYBODY was in on it and Scotland was elected the fall guy.

If this is true, it's not only sad but turned Scoland into royal dupes in the eyes of the world.

I personally believe the conspiracy theory idea is not true... Reason being, it would be too easy to expose and too hard to hide.

Each member nation that was in on it would have their balls in the hands of every other nation that was involved.

I don't think any nation is stupid enough to get themselves in that position.

If it had been the Scottish people who lost their lives on that plane..........,

Have a little consideration for the people on the ground whose houses and lives were destroyed when it came down.

I remember returning home from the pub on the night and my parents were still sat up in front of the TV clearly shocked by the images that were unravelling in front of them.

You still can't help but think of that terrible night when you drive up the M6 motorway into Scotland and see the signs for Lockerbie. For some time you could make out the scars in the ground where it crossed the road network. The whole area was fenced off for a such long time afterwards - a stark reminder of what lay out of sight for such a long time.

It's unfair to blame the Scottish people...blame the government..but not the people.

In a recent poll...90% of Scots were opposed to his release.

Another fact...60 inmates a year die in Scottish prisons.

It was all done for political reasons...now that Libya is a so-called "allie" and has tons of oil.

There.

[megomonkey]

Oil? You don't think the U.S. or associated allies would degrade their reputations as standard-bearers of all things just and fair for OIL, do you?

[wolfie]

I think the answer to that is a big Yes!
