Nobody in the UK is surprised at anything, however obnoxious, that is carried out under the banner of �Human Rights�. As I have said time and again in AB, the Human Rights movement has escalated from (wholly unnecessary in the UK) legislation aimed at protecting citizens from excessive state oppression, to a situation where this country seeks to protect everybody from everything.
Immediately there will be the usual suspects asking �so you�d prefer Mr Nejad to be returned to Iran and face death, then?�
My answer is I don�t really care what happens to Mr Nejad. I saw at first hand the results of his activities in 1980 and my only regret was that he was not killed at the scene along with his �comrades�.
We�ve kept him for 28 years (and for a good many before 1980, no doubt). Some other poor sods should take their turn now to support this murdering parasite.
Unfortunately it will not happen.

Whether or not we put people to death and notwithstanding your feintly ironic suggestion, Quinlad, are you really advocating that the British Taxpayer, having effectively housed and fed him for the best part of 3 decades should continue to do so because it might infringe his human rights to deport him?
I think it is harboring the terrorists. This country is full of people wanted for serious crimes in their countries. We do not deport them thinking that they would be victimized there. But according to those countries they are criminals. They have their justice system that might not be the way we would like it to be. But that might be a perfect system according to the ground realities of that country.
In fact we may call our system the best where even a burglars have more right than the one burgled but surely others in the world laugh about it.

I say we stage a Running Man style contest, put him in a race with Sutcliffe, Bronson and some scally burglar that nobody knows because people love an underdog. Then whack it on primetime Saturday night TV, (I'm thinking Dermot O'Leary to host), and let the witless morons in their homes splash out 50p per text to select a series of comedy/deadly traps for them. Perhaps put wolves in there, but I haven't thought this all the way through. Then when everything's finished, everyone can retire to bed with a warm tingly feeling in their stomachs, not actually safer, not actually better off, but sated and happy. If you work in media, call me.
