    Putting on record what we all know but many cannot admit. Meanwhile the British and US governments lie, lie, lie.

    Hasbara is Israeli propaganda. It doesn't apply here!
    Now it's not enough to say something is crap you need to tell why!

    What precisely does Hasbara mean?

    There is a lot of evidence that this man was guitly for blowing up a jetliner. He was convicted in a Scottish court. He had a fair trial.  On what planet was he not guilty? Blowing up jetliners on purpose is wrong.

    The evidence was extremely weak. It amounted to Megrahi having purchased cloths of the same type as found in the suitcase containing the bomb, the fact that Megrahi had worked for Libyan intelligence and other circumstantial evidence.

    A few pertinent phrases:

    trigger-happy Yanks;
    290 dead Iranians;
    Ayatollah Khomeini;
    revenge;
    PFLP-GC for hire;

    Why do you think Yanks are trigger happy? I think the Brits and Europeans have gotten that part down.

    The Iranian airliner didn't respond to hails from the US navy. They thought it was an Iranian fighter coming to attack their carrier.

    Thanks but I  do know what the definition of hijira is but I am wondering about the others and why? I have my supsicions but of course, I would not want to jump to any conclusions. I'd rather, let us say, hear it from the horse's mouth.

    I thought there'd be something on the net about Lal Bhujjakar (there are other spellings), but no. My dictionary definition is "A wiseacre, an ignoramus who pretends to possess more sense than his neighbours". Lal B. is a figure of Indian folklore. I'd say he is a fool who poses as a sage.
    Nandoo is just my version of a diminutive of Anand.
    Those were jokey names. Since the dog turd called me a racist the gloves are off. No more joshing. I want a grovelling apology. I demand public self abasement from the ventriloquist's dummy of right wing propagandists.
