"Cartoonist Dave Granlund said he was perplexed by Scotland's decision to release convicted bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, and "still trying to figure out what was going through the minds of the people in the prison system."
Granlund wondered whether people in similar situations -- including the accused terrorists housed in the naval prison at Guantanamo Bay -- would now be trying to get out early through compassionate release.
Granlund said he would have understood an early release for someone who had done a long stretch in prison, but al-Megrahi "has only been in prison for a very short while
"Murder is murder, and even in this country where we say 'life without parole' or 'life in prison,' it doesn't really mean that all the time," he said."

This is why lawfare can not, will not and never has worked.
The intel collected that proves guilt can not be released to open court without costing even more blood.
And, all that needs be done is to claim the CIA made it up and no evidence actually exists, and there'll always be snot gobbling useful idiots to suck it down and swallow it wholesale.
This particular case is as much about the long term general issue anti Americanism that pervades EVERY community in the UK and western Europe as it is about a complete and total incompetence in dealing with the realities of this war.
Oh, and that europer spawned anti Americanism is also becoming very popular right here in the US in every demographic that lives on its knees and debases itself in attempts to be like Europe. So, we'll be having much the same idiocy and incompetence on this side of the ocean.
