That would be *some* of the families. In fact a rather small minority.

I never realised that you were such a friend of the Establishment, who
believed every word that emanated from it.

I find it easier to believe that a group of judges weighed up the evidence
and based a conviction on that than there being an almighty international
conspiracy of silence with so called "experts" popping up out of the
woodwork after the fact to make a name for themselves.

Until proven otherwise I'm going to continue to mentally pigeonhole the
megrahi-is-innocent crowd with the same kind of loons who think Kennedy was
assasinated by the CIA, David Kelly was done in by MI5 and that the moon
landings were a hoax. All these axe grinding groups have apparent "evidence"
to back up their claims until you look at it closely and realise what a
load of confused circumstantial nonsense it really is.
