From the Christian Science Monitor:
"Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill's granting of "compassionate release" Thursday to Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, the Libyan intelligence agent convicted of murdering 270 people in the 1988 bombing of Pam Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, earned an outraged response from US officials and family members of the victims."
Sense of fair play or just plain nutty?
Scotland was merely following to the letter its prisoner compassion laws. As distasteful it may seem to many, it's just the way it is. What can be more Christian? Nonetheless...
The truth is there are still too many questions that remain unanswered surrounding the Lockerbie tragedy. The political angle to it still more murky.
And my, what of the families of the victims.
