Summits of Note

The Lockerbie Case: Frequently updated blog of Professor Robert Black, QC FRSE, one of the "architects" of the 2000 trial where Megrahi was convicted. That sounds awful, but trust me, he's none too happy about it. If you want to keep up on the latest developments in the case - political and legal - this is the site to watch.

Abdelbaset Ali Al-Megrahi: My Story Incredibly valuable materials Megrahi would have used in his second appeal, controversially submitted to the Court of Public Opinion after he *decided* to drop the appeal to *facilitate* a swifter journey home to die.

IPO Lockerbie Observer Mission: Website of Dr. Hans Köchler, special UN observer at the trial of Megrahi, which he considers a miscarriage of Justice.

Lockerbie Truth: A site by families leader Dr. Swire and Peter Biddulph

Shadow Over Lockerbie: An Invaluable collection of articles and primary evidence sources, compiled in 2000 for a program hosted by American Radio Works. John Biewen, Ian Ferguson, etc.

Justice for Megrahi: Basic website for an awesome group. Signatories on JFM petitions include Desmond Tutu, Noam Chomsky, Robert Black, Jim Swire, and myself.
