    If the British court thought we had no case, there would be no extradition.

    If you believe that, would you like to buy a bridge?

    You have shown no reason for me to question the judgement of the British court. Show me that, then talk to me about the bridge.

    I would have to study the case in the British Courts to be sure but if you had even a passing knowledge of how, what should be only laughingly called, the US Department of Justice works you would fist think political influence of a very sordid kind, not to mention a few lies and not revealing details because it would compromise security…

    That is why cases tend to drag on for so long. If it were a clear cut and dry case with real evidence they guy would have been in the US in about a month or two.

    On one hand we have the decision of the highest British court. On the other hand we have you. I'm gonna go ahead and trust the professionals on this one.

    Nah - he's right, Labour signed a one-sided extradition treaty with the US.

    All you need is an accusation.

    If an accusation were by itself sufficient, the court could have refused to hear the appeal by Ole Cap'n Hook. No extradition would occur without a valid probable cause.
