Just freakin’ beautiful: 

A Pakistani judge has ruled there is not enough evidence to try a key suspect in an alleged airline bomb plot on terrorism charges. 

He has moved the case of Rashid Rauf, a Briton, from an anti-terrorism court to a regular court, where he faces lesser charges such as forgery. 

Pakistan has presented Mr Rauf as one of the ringleaders behind the alleged plan to blow up flights out of London. 

So Bush/Blair’s polls are slipping, they need a big win fast, so they co-opt an ongoing investigation.  There are two huge tragedies here: The first is that their political interference may have cost the conviction of someone who might have actually been quite dangerous, not to mention the loss intelligence we might have gathered has the investigation run its course. 

The second tragedy, of course, is that I can’t bring any damn water with me on transatlantic flights!
