I think releasing this man back to Libya was a big mistake. Prostate cancer still remains one of the most treatable forms of cancer, and in cases where the cancer is very slow growing, the patient will usually die of natural causes before he succumb to the cancer.
Now it appears that is the case with the Megrahi, the Lockerbie bombing suspect. How convenient after he is returned to his home country this new revelation of his prognosis that he can live another 10-20 years comes out.
I agree with Ken.
There’s certainly a lot to find out about this issue. I really like all of the points you’ve made.
Its like you learn my thoughts! You appear to grasp a lot about this, like you wrote the e book in it or something.
I think that you just can do with some percent to power the message house a bit, however other than that, that is fantastic blog.
An excellent read. I’ll certainly be back.
