   Usually like Danziger, but I believe we have a sour note here.

   We DO believe in forgiveness so we are obviously not Christian.

   Don’t you see? By releasing the guy, the Scottish government has guaranteed that those who died in the crash will never come back to life! If they’d only made sure he died in prison, then everything would be all better!

   Get real, people. “Revenge” ain’t the same thing as “Justice.” You’ll get “closure” when YOU decide to let go, not when the person who wronged you suffers sufficiently.

   Forgiveness is up to the forgiver, nothing more or less.

   The quality of mercy is not strained.
   It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven,
   Upon the place beneath.
   It is twice blessed.
   It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.
   It is mightiest in the mightiest,
   It becomes the throned monarch better than his crown.
   His sceptre shows the force of temporal power,
   An attribute to awe and majesty.
   Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings.
   But mercy is above this sceptred sway,
   It is enthroned in the hearts of kings,
   It is an attribute to God himself.
   And earthly power dost the become likest God’s,
   Where mercy seasons justice.

   A NINNY, Have you repented ? 290 people were killed by the U.S. Navy, 60 were children. Iran Air Flight 655 was shot down, and according to you revenge is in line, and acceptable. So 6 months later, they Got their revenge when they blue up Lockerbie 103. But who actually did it, only the Governments involved know, and their not saying.They used this guy as a scapegoat. Your wanting revenge only justify what they did. Revenge, how does it feel for you ? No one went to jail for bringing down 290 people, and they wanted revenge for it. Now you want revenge for revenge. How many more will die to make it right ? Obviously you have not asked for forgiveness, nor repented. Should we expect more cries for killing from you ? Revenge begot’s Revenge !
   score
   ..290 Iranians
   -243 Brit’s

    Some more W.S., from the play dearest to my heart:

    Use every man after his desert, and who should ‘scape whipping? Use them after your own honour and dignity: the less they deserve, the more merit is in your bounty.

    Where is the Outrage at ‘W’ Bush for his action of removing Libya from the Terrorist Watch List? Why are you not upset that ‘W’ supports Terrorism? Yes, He does, else he woulid not have removed a Terrorist Country from the Terrorist Watch List.

    Jeff Danziger is good at commenting on the situation in the United States, about which he knows a great deal. When he turns to foreign events and personalities, his lack of preparation becomes all too obvious….
