pan am 103

Just wanted to alert people to an interesting new angle on the Iranian plot to blow up PA 103. (note, dispensing with references to the legal reality and just focusing on what the evidence says). http://lockerbiedivide.blogspot.com/2011/04/iranian-in-london-strange-case-of.html One man...

I realised all the discussion regarding the Frankfurt cover-up in the Lockerbie saga was hidden in the "Unaccompanied bag from Malta?" thread, but it goes a long way beyond that of course. Robert Black just blogged an article that links back to an older publication that intrigues me a lot. The...

Charles Norrie has just published the full text of his Lockerbie theory on the internet, at http://www.adifferentviewonlockerbie.blogspot.com/ This is something he's hinted at for some time on Robert Black's blog, and occasionally revealed isolated snippets. Previously he had insisted that he...

The US senators currently spinning silly conspiracy theories about the compassionate release of al-Megrahi seem to be completely ignorant of a couple of quite important points. First, he really didn't do it. We've got a few threads here and there if anyone wants to challenge that. But second...

I realize there was a previous thread dedicated to a timeline analysis. For this, however, I think a dedicated non-merged thread would be better. Plus I like the title. I spelled it that way on purpose. ;) In other threads the question of when Libya, and when Megrahi and/or Fhimah, were...

Might as well start this thread here, because it'll be a conspiracy theory before page 2 anyway. Megrahi appeal documents to remain secret Truth of Lockerbie must be disclosed Sigh. Why am I not surprised about this? When Megrahi was induced to abandon his appeal last year, we...

If you'll recall, convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdul al Megrahi was released from prison last year on "compassionate grounds." That meant he was likely to die within three months. Back on May 20 we passed the nine months mark (since release, not the even earlier diagnosis), and he's still alive...

Yet another fascinating wrinkle to the Lockerbie saga - not a new one really, but one I'm only now looking at. To introduce "Abu Elias," I'll start with the report FBI's Ed Marshman made from interviews in November 1989 with double-agent bomb maker Marwan Khreesat. (read into record at Camp...

I believe we need another thread on this. The one I started in 2007 is very long now, and goes down a lot of dead ends on the way. Also, we haven't had anyone prepared to stand by the conviction of Megrahi on the evidence produced in court, until now. The other threads are essentially dealing...

I'd like to have posted in an easy to find topic a timeline of events surrounding the Lockerbie disaster. Here is my first effort, please feel free to add more detail. March 10th 1984 – A bomb blows up UTA772, a DC-8, on the ground at Brazzaville airport. The perpetrators are never...

Tony Gauci's questionable identification of Abdelbaset al Megrahi as the person who purchased the assortment of clothes that were later found scorched and blast-damaged in the Scottish countryside was a major part of Megrahi's grounds for appeal (appeal abandoned when he was granted...

Just when you all thought maybe the Pan Am 103 crap had gone away. ... Collectively, the evidence used to convict Abdelbaset Al Megrahi for the bombing of Pan Am 103 indicates a Libyan-made bomb, placed by a Libyan intel operative, into a specially packed bag in Malta onto an Air Malta flight...

I'm starting a new thread because this question has come up very seriously in the MST-13 thread, but it's really quite a separate issue and the two are difficult to discuss in parallel. I'm copying Longtabber PE's most recent posts below, to kick off. Rolfe.

Imagine, just for a moment, that you are a terrorist. Your one aim in life is to cause a transatlantic flight from London to New York to fall out of the sky. You're not a suicide bomber though, so getting on the plane yourself is out. How would you set about it? By the way, it's winter...

I have been hearing there are some conspiracy theories about the CIA being behind the Pam Am flight bombing. Anyone know much about this one?

This is really a trawl for information. Recently, the matter of Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi, the man convicted of the Lockerbie bombing, has been back in the news for two reasons. First of all there was the controversy over the matter of the "Memorandum of Understanding" Tony Blair signed...

Why doesn't this ever crop up? It was a plane that exploded, there was never any video evidence of said event, except the wreckage scattered across Lockerbie. Yet when Flight 77 hits the Pentagon, you gotta have videos to prove it, the wreckage isn't good enough. So, out of interest, are there...
