#1 Yesterday a 7/21 accomplice was arrested as he landed at Heathrow. Today a 7/7 accomplice is acquitted. Artful. Reminds me of the US government's less-than-energetic cooperation the the prosecutions of 9/11 accomplices in European courts. Or the US gov't's nonexistent prosecution of Hussain Hashem Al-Hussaini, despite Jayna Davis's extensive documentation.

#2 I think the idea with not prosecuting Saddam is that if convicted of one execution worthy crime that can be absolutely proved, he's just as dead.

#3 "the prosecution had failed to prove allegations of impersonation and possession of fake identity card"
Perhaps they were just in a hurry to let him fade away.

"He claimed that he had been held for eight months without any cause. Siddiqui was arrested on May 17"
That's only seven months and a few days. He's taking lessons from Saddam and screaming whiplash before the real neck trauma.
