We have recently seen two British subjects, Christopher Tappin and Gary McKinnon extradited to the US.
Why is this British subject Babar Ahmad, any different?

It's a mess up. We could try him in this country, never mind about extraditing him. He's accused of terrorism offences, principally of incitement, and the Americans also put it as conspiracy to murder , which we could do too. These offences could be tried here, which the suspect himself wants. Now we have to wait for a European court to rule on whether he can be extradited. We chose the wrong path to follow. The website he is supposed to have used is based in the US, but that really shouldn't make any difference, if the evidence necessary for a trial here is sufficient.
Its because our country is run by left leaning liberals who think more of the perpetrator than the victim. Having the EU human rights brigade on their side they are able to cock a snoot at justice. Even though many were killed on our shores in the '7/7 incident they can get away with it.
Whilst in custody he showed the marks on his body where he has been beaten up so expect another £1m lawsuit.
The message this must send out to all terrorists around the world must be jaw breaking. Get past our border guards claim asylum and then sue us for all its worth. If you are already British it becomes easier to jump the hoops.

Correct, aog; the suspect fears life imprisonment, meaning the whole of his life in solitary confinement, in the US. He said so in the interview broadcast on BBC Radio 5 yesterday.Even if he served a whole life term (unlikely) in this country, he would not be in 'solitary'.
The system for extradition has got worse over the years. We used to get wanted suspects out pretty quickly. Counsel would turn up at Bow Street to argue that the offence in the extradition papers was materially different from any offence in the UK, fail on the grounds that the foreign offence was close enough to one of ours, and the suspect was gone.

Er...No, aog. Gary McKinnon is still here and fighting.

I realise this doesn't detract from your point, with which I entirely agree, but you gave me pause for thought there.
