It's not really all that complicated. England is just whoring out it's justice system for oil.

Scotland has a separate justice minister etc, this all on them, nothing to do with England.

[Brill Weave]

The information Firas has relayed about Ghadafi now leads me to believe that he is the most bad ass Middle Eastern despot around!

This is pretty fucked up. Call me a conspiracy whore or whatever, but there has to be something up that we don't know because in all honesty, the OP doesn't really make sense.

How so? I posted topic questions on the reasoning behind his release.

Will this guy be on house arrest? Or is he allowed to walk around freely?

He got a hero's welcome from over 200+ people when he arrived.

Like that badass chick from Belly! Maybe minus the virgin part.

Anyways, the guy is gonna die a terrible death anyway plus they want oil. Ethically and morally correct, no. Practical, yes.

Just your history yo. Never said you were at this point in time.

How so? I posted topic questions on the reasoning behind his release.

It does make sense. I meant the expression "that doesn't make sense" as "that's fucking retarded".

Fun Fact: Ghadafi's bodyguards are all virgin women, he doesnt trust men. lol

This is bad ass.

[Faris]

Yeah, I doubt there's any political ties between them at all that could pressure such a move.

Let's pour some salt on those wounds:

Obama condemns Lockerbie bomber's 'hero's welcome' - CNN.com
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The cheering, flag-waving welcome that the convicted Lockerbie bomber received in Libya after being released from a life sentence was "highly objectionable," President Barack Obama said Friday.


His spokesman, Robert Gibbs, also criticized the bomber's reception as "tremendously offensive," echoing a sense of outrage that senior British leaders also have expressed.

Abdelbeset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi had been serving a life sentence for the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. The bombing killed 270 people, including 189 Americans.

Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill freed al Megrahi after doctors concluded he has terminal prostate cancer and estimated he has three months to live. A plane returned the 57-year-old to Libya, and video of his reception Thursday at the airport drew harsh responses in the United States and Britain.

Criminals of Jewish descent often escape to Israel to avoid prosecution.

Here's a blatant example:

Israel extradition law offers help to alleged criminals - Jewish Telegraphic Agency

The issue emerged in September, when a Maryland teenager claimed Israeli citizenship in an effort to avoid a murder trial in the United States.

The case of Samuel Sheinbein came before the Israeli courts this week as Israeli officials, seeking to comply with a U.S. request for extradition, argued that despite the youth's claim, he is not an Israeli citizen.

While Sheinbein's case is extreme, his flight from U.S. prosecutors has focused some unwanted attention on Israel's extradition policy.

Like most European countries and many South American nations, Israel does not extradite its citizens. But it does allow prosecutions in its own courts for crimes committed abroad.

But the fear of prosecution at home has not stopped at least a half-dozen Israelis from fleeing the United States in recent months.

The recent trend has elicited much concern among U.S. law-enforcement personnel and prosecutors, who fear that Israeli criminals will use the Jewish state as a refuge.

After a Miami couple jumped bond in late December to avoid a trial on charges they were involved with a multimillion-dollar money-laundering scheme, the local prosecutor told reporters that he is afraid Israelis will "abuse that protection in Israel" by using the Jewish state as a "safe haven."

Prosecutors say the Israelis are gambling that U.S. law-enforcement officials will not have the resources or motivation to pursue cases in Israel.

Prosecutors are quick to point out that many Israelis accused of crimes in the United States do not flee. But a State Department official said local district attorneys have contacted its legal department to discuss the problem.

There is hardly an "epidemic," this official said, but it is "on our radar screen."

The case of the 17-year-old Sheinbein has been the most visible one in recent months.

The Maryland teenager fled to Israel days after police say he murdered and dismembered his friend Alfredo Enrique Tello, 19, in a Washington, D.C., suburb.

Sheinbein, who had never before claimed Israeli citizenship, contended that his father's status as an Israeli extends to him.

[...]Israel has also extradited Americans who have sought safe haven in Israel if they became citizens after committing a crime abroad.

Robert and Rachel Manning were extradited to the United States after sending a fatal letter bomb to a secretary at a California computer company in 1980. They fled to the West Bank town of Kiryat Arba and claimed Israeli citizenship under the Law of Return, which grants such status to all Jews.

After losing a well-publicized, two-year fight against extradition, Robert Manning was convicted in a U.S. court and sentenced to life imprisonment in February 1994.

His wife was in an Israeli prison, having just lost her own battle against extradition, when she died of a heart attack in March 1994.

Also extradited because he was not an Israeli citizen at the time he committed a crime was Eddie Antar, better known as "Crazy Eddie," the electronics giant who fled to Israel in the 1980s to avoid charges of U.S. tax evasion.

The article fails to put emphasis on the fact that the American couple, used as an example of Israel allowing 'Israeli citizens' to be extradited, are Jewish. They focus on their citizenship in a benign fashion. When you consider the Jewish Law of Return in Israel (citizenship) is based on ethnicity - the context of the Mannings 'fleeing' from the U.S. to Israel is that they are able to do so with such expediency SINCE they are Jewish.

Israel Holds Couple Sought by U.S. Since 1989 in Letter-Bomb Killing (NY Times - 1991)

After years of dispute, the Israeli police have arrested an American-Israeli husband and wife in a West Bank Jewish settlement on a two-year-old extradition request from the United States. The couple are wanted for murder.

The Americans, Rachel and Robert Manning, are suspected of mailing letter bombs in California that killed a secretary in 1981 and a prominent Arab-American in 1985.

The Mannings, who are Jewish, came to Israel as immigrants several years ago, and their extradition has been a small but festering sore in Israeli-American relations for years.

The original extradition request by the United States, first made in 1989, was not enforced until now because of American diplomatic sensitivity over arresting the Mannings at their home in Kiryat Arba, a small settlement of right-wing Jews adjacent to the Palestinian city of Hebron.

I have no idea why people are that pissed.

He's going to die a slow, agonizing death as the cancer eats it's way through his body. Libya has shitty health care. And the Scots don't have to pay a cent for keeping his pathetic terrorist ass alive, knowing that he's doomed anyway.

Win.
