guess its par for the course , civilians are expendable when politics are involved , Lt. Calley did less than 3 yrs for the My Lai massacre, and the skipper of the Vicennes walked after shooting down the iran Air airbus.
Cameron and Blair can still play kissy face with the US by saying "nowt to do with us , it was the Scots" . and the Americans are totally scratching their heads that one country can have two different legal systems .
The fact that Ted Kennedy has the cojones to complain about letting a terrorist go is a bit rich considering that he (and his family) were some of the biggest supporters of the IRA during the troubles in Ulster in recent years .
