Is my homeland now part of the Axis of Evil?

As always, peerless Will has the best words:

... Alas, poor country!
Almost afraid to know itself.

Following the release of convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi (2), internet campaigns has been launched to boycott Scotland, because of its craven appeasement of terrorists. This is raises some important issues.

• First, will Scotland be given official recognition as part of the 'Axis of Evil'? Surely, we have earned that distinction.
  
• Second, will I be able to claim refugee status in New Zealand, because of the nature of the regime that reigns in my homeland?
  

More seriously, I've never been convinced of al-Megrahi's guilt. On the one hand, the case against him was dubious. On the other, for reasons of parochial pride, I like to think Scottish justice would have found out the truth. Probably, it was at best a case where 'Not Proven' would have been an appropriate verdict. But I suspect that was never, ever going to be possible, given the circumstances of his trial.

I suspect the real reason he has been allowed to go home to die was to stop his appeal and to negate the embarrassment of him dying in Scotland, with big question marks remaining over his guilt.
