Lockerbie bomber, Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi, has
died from cancer, after a long battle with the disease. Three years ago
the Judiciary Report contended he was not on death's door as thought by
officials and could have received treatment in prison.
On
August 20, 2009,
the Judiciary Report wrote:
"He is suffering
from cancer and reportedly
has three months to live. Britain is known for its compassion in
such issues and as such, Scotland released him after serving 8 years in
prison, to go home to die....
Compassion is a great trait.
However, Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi, is a convicted mass murderer,
who could have received medical care in prison,
while paying his debt to society. Releasing him has rubbed salt in the
wounds of his victims' families and friends, who didn't get to tell
their loved ones goodbye, a courtesy he has been afforded." (click

I commend the Scottish government for its compassion in
showing mercy to the merciless, but some of the victim's families understandably opposed the Lockerbie bomber's release, due to the
unconscionable things he did to their loved ones. Ultimately, God will
judge the Lockerbie bomber for what he has done.
