While you were sleeping…

While you were sleeping…

On December 20th 1988 Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi was building a bomb.

While you were sleeping…

On December 21st 1988 that bomb was being placed on Pan Am Flight 103.

While you were sleeping…

In the evening of December 21st. 1988 flight Pan Am 103 exploded and pieces of the plane fell onto the Scottish town of Lockerbie, killing 259 people on the plane and 11 people on the ground.

MOST ON THE PLANE WERE AMERICANS

While you were sleeping…

 Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi, a Libyan government offical, was convicted of involvement in the bombing and sentenced to life imprisonment

And… while you were sleeping…

On 20 August 2009, the Scottish Government released him on "compassionate grounds" to return to Libya as he was suffering from terminal prostate cancer and had a life expectancy of less than 3 months.

And… while you were sleeping…

He returned home a hero to Libya a hero with a hero’s welcome.

And… while you were sleeping…

Your President, Secretary of State or Congress did nothing.

While you are sleeping tonight…

I hope you feel safe.

Please join me in expressing an immediate demand for action from our congressman.

I will be expressing my demand and outrage to Congressman Kevin Brady at his town hall meeting on Wednesday of this week – 300 West Davis – 6th Floor at 6:00 PM – and then in the voting booth a bit later.

Americans died while you were sleeping and we have done nothing.  Time to wake up!
