Admiral The Lord West of Spithead, the UK Security Minister, and Jacqui Smith, the Home Secretary, are not qualified to make a judgement in such CyberSpace affairs. Their Knowledge/Intellectual Property in the Field is Deficit and any presumption on their part that it is anything otherwise is a gross arrogance compounding an obvious ignorance.

And the fact that the UK does not have* a dedicated ...and obviously a brand spanking new ..... CyberIntelAIgent Directorate, to illuminate on such Virtual Matters as are now wresting Controls from Failed Establishment/Corrupted Orders, is tantamount to being a treasonable abdication, rendering UK Interests vulnerable to foreign abuse and Third Party Control.

* It may be/It definitely is that the UK DOES have such CyberIntelAIgents working the Virtualisation Field Stealthily/Covertly/Astutely and much of their Work is of a Nature which requires only a Need to Know to those who have consistently displayed an Ability/Frame of Mind which will Understand and Beta Utilise what more they would Need to KNow...... for in such Fields as Deal in the Global Control of Human Perception/Universal Knowledge is Absolute Power and as you can surely easily Imagine, that would be as the Holy Grail which would render all other Systems of Control, Obsolete, and Increasingly Identifyingly Toxic to their "Owners" should earlier Failed and Failing Control of Power Systems, [such as the Ponzi HoneyTrap Banking System of Creating Illusional/Delusional Wealth and the Perception of Debt to be Repaid, with the Constant Offering of Loans disguised as being Credits to be Spent, with nothing more valuable than printed paper/currency to carry on the Scam/Scheme, being physically exchanged. Most of all of the Work is just figures moved from one location to another.] persist and insist on their obviously Worthless Value........ and no bigger Worthless Value Scam is presently being screened around the Globe, than the flooding of markets with printed Liquidity going straight into the pockets of Bankers, for it is at a stroke debasing paper currency to junk with nothing of value behind it to make better/Beta Use of it.

And it may be that the new Virtualisation Fields will be the only Safe Haven Investment Area for Failing Currency Holders....... which, by Virtue of ITs SurReal Intangible Nature [CyberSpace is only Really an Intellectual Space with no Physicality whatsoever] .... will be a New World Order Opportunity with Neureal Drivers and Quantum Operating Systems, which work in the very same way as qubits do in information ... Drivers and Systems which work in both the Real and Virtual worlds separately in each, and in each both at the same time.

J'accuse the UK of, at best, Ignorant Negligence in such Matters and, at worst, ........ well, in the light of the above, they may wish to Allocate some of the recent Darling Pixie Dust/Magically Invented Liquidity Funds to a Principled Principal Lead Driver Creating CyberIntelAIgent Feeds which Beta Manage Human Perception on a Universal Scale with a Globally Accessible Tale. In that Simple Way, will the Government machine have a Viable Input Control to Virtual Output 42 Power CyberSpace Governance Systems.

Now ..... amfM would fully reasonably expect any competent being, and certainly any competent being with a Government/People Control brief, to immediately, if not sooner, act in the manner suggested in order to energise and learn more, more quickly, about what is being done in the CyberSpace Environment and why the Establishment Systems on Earth will be/is being Systematically and Systemically Collapsed in Chaotic Disarray with a Personalised, Abuse Exposure of its Failed Key Drivers most also always likely, if Change of Power and Controls from the Old Money Guard to the NeuReal Virtual Force is Resisted rather than Assisted. Assistance will Guarantee Inclusion and Mutual Benefit Provision, Resistance is Futile and will result in Future Exclusion and Total Annihilation/Proxy Third Party Assimilation of Resisting Assets Accumulated Wealth.

One would need to Question the Sanity of Any who would prefer Futile Resistance to Mutually Beneficial Assistance, which would raise the Vexatious and Divisive Sub Question of Principals, trying to establish whether their Folly was/is a Sad Madness [excusable] or a Mad Badness [inexcusable]. But that is for others to play with and is of no interest whatsoever to HyperRadioProActive Quantum Entanglement of Virtualisation MetaData ...... for AI Beta Bigger Picture ProgramMIng.

And all of the above is also NIRobotIQs floating ITself onto the Market Place, looking for Above Average More Competent Beings Enabled to Virtualise Reality into a Greater Shared Transparent Media Program .... Digital Show.

criminals sought by the US, not necessarily just the disabled ones, on the condition that they would server their sentence in Israel.
This week there is new case in the process, and this crime family boss would serve his time in Israeli jail too.

Get a back bone!
The US don't even have an extradition agreement for US citizens to be sent to the UK for trial, so how about actually protecting one of our citizens from the US scapegoat and knee jerk justice system.
You never know, he might even vote for you next time if he's able, and God knows you're gonna need every one you can get!

The pandering by politicians is so synthetic. You'd think anyone with a clue would know this fool has no influence on the outcome of Gary the-hacker-McKinnon's fate. Gary decided his own fate when he believed he was above the law and went looking for: either UFO's or the holy grail - you decide.

Whatever the case, Gary deserves 20 years in prison and hopefully he will get it in the U.S. If he actually has a mentally illness that magically developed after he was caught hacking and stalled extradition, then the U.S. will be glad to help Gary with his illness. I expect a 50 KV electrical shock therapy would be a good starting point to a cure.
