Lockerbie Bomber Dies in Libya (May he Rot in Hell)
Fox News ^ | May 20, 2012

Posted on 05/20/2012 6:11:24 AM PDT by Kaslin

TRIPOLI, Libya – The former Libyan intelligence officer Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, who was convicted of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, has died in Libya, his brother told AFP on Sunday.

"He died an hour ago," Abdelhakim al-Megrahi said, putting the time of death at shortly after 1:00pm local time.

The UK Foreign Office could not confirm the report Sunday, however it said it was "seeking further information."

Megrahi, 60, was convicted in a Scottish court in 2001 for his role in the December 1998 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. Most of those killed in the bombing of the Boeing 747 jet were Americans.

All 259 passengers and crew died in the tragedy, along with 11 people on the ground.

Megrahi was released on compassionate grounds in 2009 and allowed to return to Libya. Doctors said at the time that he had terminal cancer and only three months left to live.

“May he rot in hell.”
Pretty hard to rot when engulfed in flames.

If there is a place south of Hell that is where this demon belongs.

I guess I’m just mean—but I never would have released this POS on “Compassionate grounds”. I’m afraid my compassion for a killer like this is just non-existant............

Do they not even know the decade it happened?

I know the day it happened, I was coming home from OTS for Christmas It was December 22, 1988..scared the hell out of my family.

This mass murderer should have been hung by his balls years ago.

Fox News reported on FOX and Friends that the doctor who said that he only had 3 month to live was only a general practitioner and not a Oncologist

Compassion had nothing to do with it.

The most amazing thing is that he was greeted as a hero in Libya. The city/country that supports vermin like this should be held responsible just like General Sherman held the citizens of the South responsible for supporting the Confederacy.

We should just inform these countries that you can support these terrorists and allow them to flourish and prosper if you want to, but if they attack us we will level your cities and destroy your infrastructure. You rebuild without our help. Take out the trash if you don’t want to return to the 7th century.

Okay—so now I’m dense—why did they release him?

“May he rot in hell.”
Hard to tell. If he is a muzzie, he’s probably getting aquainted with his 71 virgins.

I’m glad he’s really facing his reckoning now, but it still sucks that Zero threw Libya a victory by having this rodent released from jail. He should’ve died in solitary confinement.

Far, far past time that this happened.

But it should have been on a gallows...or on the receiving end of a hell fire missile.

My idea of compassion for that POS would be a bullet to the back of the head.

May his “71 virgins” be clones of Roseanne Barr, Rosie O’Donnell, and Moms Mabely. I applaud your death, you worthless killer.
