If you listen to the BBC 2 radio they had people talking about this who lived over there and 95% of them loved it over there and they felt safe
The Lockerbie bombing is now under scrutiny and there is talk of it being something to do with Iran as a "Pay back for the US shooting down A passenger air bus by mistake"
People are also asking why then did Libya pay compensation ? and the answer is because they could regain full diplomatic and economic status
“Libya did pay the compensation under explicit objection that Libya had absolutely nothing to do with the PanAm 103 Lockerbie-Tragedy and could therefore not be made responsible. In the world media this objection is never mentioned."
Why Libya pays?: > Regain full diplomatic and economic status. This would allow oil companies to negotiate hundreds of billions of dollars worth of contracts, to drill the state’s oilfields.
