As a previous resident of a little known town just north of the border called Lockerbie, before, during and after the air disaster I can assure anyone who has not witnessed such an act, or similar, has absolutely no idea of the ramifications of such a heinous terrorist act!!!!!!![/size][size=1em]
Decoke, you have heard of Iran Air Flight 655 I take it. Shot down by the USS Vincennes. 290 passengers died. Three months and 20 days after they shot down that commercial airliner the crew of the Vincennes returned home to a hero’s welcome.
Flight 655 was brought down on 3[sup]rd[/sup] July 1988. Pan Am Flight 103 fell out of the sky on 21[sup]st[/sup] December 1988, not that I need to remind you of that date.

OK but two wrongs don't make a right, tit for tat doesn't solve anything.
OK People make mistakes, countries make mistakes- Shamima made a big mistake. I can accept that she was radicalised and I can also accept that as a young mother she should be given a second chance.
It would be both the British and the christian thing to do- give everyone a second chance, turn the other cheek. I fully expected her to be allowed back into the country and maybe even be a force for good, educating young people on the dangers of radicalisation and all that.
Then I heard her speak.
Spot on Sajid Javid, you made the right choice. A British Muslim prepared to speak out against antisemitism among other things, a man of integrity, even if I don't agree with your politics.

Treat everything in life the way a dog would- if you can't eat it or foc it, forget it.
