The new leaderZulfiqar Mehsud aka Hakimullah Mehsud the face of a very content Taliban killer!
As you know, I was deeply insulted with Megrahi's release! It was inappropriate and dead wrong and was done at the Judges discretion and we were brazenly told on one in the entire world can question this. Scotland's justice Minister said the decision was his and his alone and no one could question it. Former Libyan intelligence agent Abdel Basset al-Megrahi as you know was in Mohamar Qaddafi' secret service and worked directly for him. Qaddafi ordered the bombing that downed Pan Am flight 103 killing 270 innocent civilians.
I am disgusted we have allowed this mass murderer a known terrorist to go free, to go home to a heroes welcome. I thought guilty or not his release would embolden the so called terrorists and wondered why the world was not outraged. Right is right and wrong is wrong and this is friggen wrong. Well I find that with every day the Western world agrees.
Scottish leaders and Downing Street are feeling the heat! MacAskill who said the decision was his and his alone acknowledged that there has been widespread condemnation throughout the world on the terrorist's release but said those concerns exceeded his jurisdiction. That is a continuation of his self interested BS!
A web site has been set up demanding the Scottish Government rescind Megrahi's release! The site Boycottscotland.com, said. "Unless the Scottish government rescinds this decision to release al Megrahi, and if the British parliament does not intervening in the matter all Americans to protest this action by boycotting the United Kingdom and Scotland in full." Gee no Scottish Whiskey? Scottish leaders hold crisis meeting over Lockerbie furore
Except for Islam and MacAskill the entire world is up in arms and calling for a Boycott of Scotland at this point I believe that should extend to Britain though there is no way I could envision the guy going back to prison whether he should or not. FBI Director Robert Mueller called the Libyan's release "a mockery of the rule of law and I have to agree!
Prime Minister Gordon Brown believes the early release of the the Lockerbie bomber is too sensitive to comment on. They made no comment before his release and will make no comment now. I refuse to believe that Brown or MacAskill can really think Megrahi's release does not give succor to the terrorists. I do see the Scottish Government in serious trouble over this though England will succeed in distancing herself. These guys are fools this subject is world encompassing and it is an insult to the entire world not to address it. It is too sensitive not to comment on! Downing Street says Lockerbie release is too sensitive to comment on
Meanwhile The battle in Pakistan continues to ratchet up between between Pakistan and the Taliban 35 militants arrested in NW Pakistan search operations and amongst the Taliban themselves as vengeance is taken on Mehsud's in laws and they are being killed.Killings Rattle Pakistan Taliban
I keep hoping the Taliban will continue to in fight vying to replace Baitullah Mehsud. I guess that appears not to be the case as we are hearing rumors that his successor has already been chosen. Waliur Rehman said that Baitullah had given him full control over the network and that a new leader "would be chosen within five days." Rehman made no reference to Hakimullah Mehsud, whose aides said separately later Saturday that he had been chosen as new leader during a meeting Friday. Pakistan Taliban commander vows Afghan fight
Despite Taliban infighting in Pakistan Pakistani Taliban fighters are committed to helping the fight in Afghanistan and consider Barack Obama their "No. 1 enemy," They vowed to continue to continue helping their brothers in Afghanistan repel the infidels and their success continues I am sorry to say! 3 NATO troops killed in southern Afghanistan Sunday
* I can only hope we stay focused on this so called war on terror. Meanwhile I can only hope that with two such fierce commanders as Hakimullah Mehsud and Waliur Rehman claiming to be the appointed leader that they kill each other off and hopefully save NATO lives!
