Re: Hacker loses extradition battle

Firstly…the original point is that the UK has allowed itself to be manoeuvred into an imbalanced treaty where they can extradite from us without trial, but we cannot extradite from them without trial. And that remains unanswered unless you accept Alan Johnsons comment of this issue being ‘academic’

Secondly… this ‘cyber terrorist’ is alleged to have done all the US accuse him of from a remote server, using a basic password hack program that a child of 10 can set up, on a 56k dial up modem. Do you seriously believe that the mighty United States of America’s security system is that inadequate?

Thirdly…I'm amazed how readily people believe the U.S. government is telling the truth on this issue, yet believe they have lied over WMD, Afghanistan, 9/11 and the 1969 moon landings.

As for the ‘confession’ that he had infiltrated all these systems, destroyed all this information, brought Washington to a standstill, caused black Monday, aids, typhus etc..etc..….anyone recall that guy with mental issues who ‘confessed’ to a crime he didn’t commit and spent the best part of his life in jail before DNA proved his innocence who died recently.

I may be gullible but I do not have to resort to crude sexual innuendo to make a point and I also know that Mckinnon is constantly monitored and hasn’t had access to the internet for over 7 years.
