UK sources: Obama knew about the Lockerbie bomber every step of the way

Obama seems to have screwed up really big (Again!) British officials claim Mr Obama and Mrs Clinton were kept informed at all stages of discussions concerning Megrahi’s return. The officials say the Americans spoke out because they were taken aback by the row over Megrahi’s release, not because they did not know it was about to happen.

Lockerbie bomber release inquiry dismissed

When asked by ITV News if there would be an investigation into the release, Mr Balls said: " I don't think there is a case for an inquiry because everything's out in the public domain, people are seeing what's happening."

Then why the redactions in the docs...?

Thanks for the heads up.

I did post this one from the UK telegraph article either yesterday or Saturday night (late). I am waiting for the next press conference where Jake Tapper or somebody like him will try to corner Gibbs into making a statement. This is one I am watching closely :)

Thank you for taking the time to print the poem. May they never be forgotten. It is well to remember that the victims included infants and toddlers. I take heart in the belief that the guilty will one day be judged by a truly Righteous Judge.

The “Global War on Terror” is now phrased an “Overseas Contingency Operation”. The knowledge of the release of the Lockerbie bomber, Obozo bowing to the Saudis, etc., etc. is appeasement that emboldens the enemy. We all know how that plays out in history. This hemorrhaging of America and our values must stop.
