Posted on December 19, 2006 by | 9 Comments

The five Bulgarian nurses and the Palestinian doctor were found guilty earlier today, against all the scientific evidence of their innocence. I second PZ’s sentiment about this.

    They can still appeal to the Libyan Supreme Court.

    News Flash

    Despite the fact that the scientific evidence supports their innocence, the kangaroo court in Libya has found the six medical workers guilty of intentionally infecting children with AIDS. The mob, at least, is happy.

    I hope they have more sense than the previous jurists, but somehow I doubt it.

    Bullshit. They are innocent. The science clearly shows that. This is nothing more than a cynical ploy by the Libyan government to redirect anger away from the government and its primitive hospitals and towards foreign scapegoats.

    Exactly, Orac.
    Not to mention the $5.7 billion in compensation and the release of the terrorists being held in a Scottish jail, which is what Libya is demanding to release these innocent health care workers.
