How Western countries coddle dictators for their dirty oil

When the Lockerbie bomber was released, we were stunned because  the UK govt had kicked the loved ones of the bombing victims, right where it hurts the most. Nothing new....politicians all over the world love to kick victims and their families, it's in their blood and written in the contracts that they sign when they get elected to supposedly "represent" the people. What we didn't know at that time, was how deep, dirty and demeaning that connection to Libya was.

The revealations surfacing these days are as if Julian Assange has taken control of the UK media. Below are just a few quick reads.  Why should I be the only one to feel disgusted.
