The Jimnasium: Lockerbie Bomber Dead

Welcome

Thanks for stopping by.

This blog intends to be a topical look, time permitting, at what is going in our world. Specifically how the flame of freedom, liberty and privacy is being snuffed out by the massed forces of evil totalitarianism, sometimes blatantly, often covertly.

Whatever your political hue, if you believe in freedom, liberty and getting the "government boot" off your throat then we urge you to get the conversation going with your friends, family & colleagues. It is up to us and us alone. We either learn about our freedoms and exercise our freedoms or lose them forever.

Also if you like what you see here please put this blog in your favourites and tell others about it. Feel free to comment, all civilised comments are welcome!

Lockerbie Bomber Dead

Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, a Libyan intelligence officer who was the only person ever convicted in the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, died Sunday nearly three years after he was released from a Scottish prison to the outrage of the relatives of the attack's 270 victims. He was 60.

Scotland released al-Megrahi on Aug. 20, 2009, on compassionate grounds to let him return home to die after he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. At the time, doctors predicted he had only three months to live.
