Scottish justice
Scottish Justice Minister Kenny MacAskill has made the correct decision in releasing Lockerbie Bomber Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi on compassionate grounds.
Al-Magrahi has not been pardoned or declared "not guilty"; he has been released because he will die in a few months time. Scots law believes in compassion.
Macaskill has thought long and hard; and has made his own decision, as it is his duty to do.
He has listened to many people in recent days; but has not give way to the bullying emanating from the United States, especially from Hillary Clinton.
