Megrahigate

Many UK relatives, Megrahi's lawyers and SNP backbencher Christine Grahame believe Megrahi's decision to drop his appeal means key questions about his conviction remain open. She used parliamentary privilege yesterday to raise doubts about the timer allegedly used in the attack, the reliability of a key witness – a Maltese shopkeeper – and the alleged failure by the US and UK to investigate evidence tying a Palestinian terror group to the attack.

IMO: As I have also said for some time. But both UK and US authorities seem involved in a cover up. And the Sibel Edmonds testimony makes that only too clear.

Brad says." The under-oath, detailed allegations include bribery, blackmail, espionage and infiltration of the U.S. government of, and by current and former members of the U.S. Congress, high-ranking State and Defense Department officials and agents of the government of Turkey. The broad criminal conspiracy is said to have resulted in, among other things, the sale of nuclear weapons technology to black market interests including Pakistan, Iran, North Korea, Libya and others."

IMO: So US and UK interests even seem involved in starting another nuclear war. Brown has just offered a billion pounds to Pakistan to "defend its frontiers" In fact the money will be used as Robert Norris of the Natural Resources Defense Council and Hans Kristensen of the Federation of American Scientists say Pak is doing already, as follows:

"Two new plutonium production reactors and a second chemical separation facility also are under construction. The paper essentially upgrades Pakistan's nuclear arsenal both quantitatively (from 60 weapons last year to 70-90 now) and qualitatively -- from uranium-base to being plutonium-centric".

IMO: India meanwhile needs much more power and is seriously trying to expand peaceful and very needed nuclear facilities to that end. Both Korea and Russia are trying to further this.

IMO: Obama cannot afford to see India as an enemy, it is a much needed wouldbe friend in the area. To make one simple point, of the 100 richest men in California, 10% have PIO cards (relates to direct Indian connection). As for Gordon Brown, he does not leave the impression of competence. He has had wonderful opportunites and seems to have spoiled them. Lord Turner seems to be the only useful hope.
