Three Britons are now in a Houston jail, under a one sided extradition treaty between the UK and the USA. One-sided because Congress has so far refused to ratify the US side of the deal.
In effect, the new British lawthat lets America demand suspects be handed over without providing English courts with evidence to prove a prima facie case against them.
Now here comes the interesting part, one of the key factors stopping US lawmakers from agreeing to this treaty is that IRA suspects might have to be shipped back to Britain.
IRA equals terrorists; people who have been murdering innocent English people in the name of their cause. So don’t believe the bulshit that the US don’t deal with terrorists. They just pick and choose.
