  • The Daily Mail Backs Gary McKinnon In National Campaign

    It goes without saying that McKinnon has committed a crime. He is not denying it. However, just like it is fruitless to kill a mosquito with an AK47, trying to punish McKinnon with the same legal arsenal as senior Al-Qaeda leaders, is at best mean, at worse immoral, especially given that UK has been (and many may say still is) a known safe haven for war criminals and terrorists alike.
