If genuine, I am touched by the sympathy expressed by the victor for the vanquished. Even if more than a little surprised at coming to her defence now.<br /><br />Had she won the case, my headline would have read "Ex-terrorist wins libel action against Osler". If she does decide to bring a libel action against me, I wish her the best of luck. If she won, and was awarded damages they would be nominal. As she knows, there are advantages to being a "man of straw"!<br /><br />As I said earlier in the comments, I have not misread the judgment, I leave that to the likes of Charles Falconer. This is not about the judgment. This is about her conduct. In particular, the blog post about using the libel laws to fund her political activity.<br /><br />I don't see the need to correct my blog post.<br /><br />I have served time with so-called terrorists like the Guildford 4, Birmingham 6, and Maguire 7, and saw their pain and suffering at the hands of the Establishment.<br /><br />I have also been mis-labelled as a psychopath, in spite of my clean bill of mental health in that respect, and the documentation to prove it, I still read blog comments referring to me as a psychopath.<br /><br />Thanks for the offer to discuss this in more detail, however, I don't really have the time what with helping students with their dissertations for their masters, etc.jailhouselawyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03795278184797990706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20662517.post-62221203018371317782010-05-17T13:50:02.133+01:002010-05-17T13:50:02.133+01:00Dear Sir,

She was in fact released without charge and compensated for wrongful imprisonment. Mr Osler did no more than to repeat this. He fully accepts that Ms K was innocent of any crime. He made this clear to Eady J.<br /><br />Ms K's claim against Mr Osler was misguided because of the article he actually wrote. This does not mean that she would be misguided in bringing a claim against any person who said she actually had been a terrorist. <br /><br />All Eady J did was find that she had been arrested on suspicion of involvement with terrorism, but released and compensated. I do believe that you have misread the judgment and would appreciate it if you would correct it.<br /><br />Please feel free to contact me at work if you would like to discuss this in any more detail.Robert Dougansnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20662517.post-7445174486674263092010-05-17T10:40:34.488+01:002010-05-17T10:40:34.488+01:00PWE134: Thank you for your comment.

As for bullying abuse, that is what Kalashnikov does when she threatens libel to fund her political activities.<br /><br />Anonymous: I have not totally misunderstood the judgment, I leave that kind of thing to the likes of Charles Falconer! I have read Jack of Kent's blog on this subject. I don't make things up. I did not say that David Osler said Ms Kaschkepoint was a terrorist. My blog post will not hinder any campaign to repeal the libel laws. It was an important judgment, and like I have said, I did not misread it.<br /><br />Jack of Kent: I am sorry that you found my post disappointing. There is no substance to any allegations of terrorism for the majority of those who found themselves locked up in Gitmo. Apparently, being innocent is no longer enough in this world. However, Kaschkenuts is not exactly innocent.
