Is it worth risking world peace, just to arrest the killer of 1 russian spy bloke.?

I think so, given the implications of this case (it was done on foreign soil, seems pretty obvious it was sponsored by the Russian state, and for the fact that if you don't stand for justice now, when will you stand for justice?)

What do you mean (risking the world peace)?. The world is at risk just a long time ago, if the americans and english keep on putting their noses where they shouldn't, war is enminent. Do you remember what GEORGE BUSH said in a conference before attacking IRAQ? I will go into IRAQ with the approval or dissapproval of the UNITED NATIONS. What do you think that means? Let's get rid of all the nuclear weapons and let's start talking, let's get all together and solve this sad problem , many people die, many people suffer, all this is due to the american and english administration. We think that we are all powerful and we die like anybody else. If you read the history about the problem in the middle east you will realize what a mistake we have made. So let's not concentrate about this russian case, this is just a grain in the sand.

taxed till i die,

He was murdered in Englad that is the problem,Its just not the done thing.

i think u r being overly dramatic by saying that finding his killer is risking world peace. point is, it was a conspiracy murder, doesn't it bother u that there someone out who could have done it? the curiousity i think as to who and why is the drive behind looking for his muderers plus its the right thing to do

Ricking world peace? When was there world peace to risk? I DEFY anyone to name the date there was not an ACTIVE war going on somewhere on the planet.

There's no risk to world peace here, just the usual huffing & puffing between politicians and, even worse, their overpaid & underworked senior civil servants.

The point to watch here is that we live by the rule of law. All of us are equal under that (at least in theory), including " the killer of one Russian spy bloke".

Would you want it any other way?

Thatcher did of course, when it allowed the staff of the Libyan embassy to walk free after one of them had shot a copper. PC Yvonne Fletcher as I recall.

No world conflict at stake but it was convenient. If you can't recall it, look it up.

What do you reckon?

surely we risk world peace if we Don't make a stand for the application of international law?

It is unfortunate that in these times when governments set a trend for anti social and anarchic behaviour mostly because they do not have the wherewithal or diplomatic skills to act nobly or humanely, All nations are constantly on the defencive. They arm themselves, eat and west from the threat of each other, communication is inflammatory titting for tatting and yes, the enlightened mind fears that the worlds stability in reliant upon a bunch of godless administrators made good, rousing the fear of hell by inciting hatred amongst the people against a partcular group, merely for teh sake of keeping and empowering hatred.

World peace is indeed fragile, and nations fear invasive siege from hostile powers seeking to superimpose their self interests and anti culture upon those less armed to defend themselves. It is indeed frightening, demoralising, disheartening. We await the coming of a messiah, an individual with the trust of teh entire world population, who transcends, race, class, religious barriers. It requires only one Supreme Spirit. We quietly await.

So, how many people have to be murdered before you consider it enough to "risk world peace"?

And did you consider the possibility that allowing others to get away with murdering some number of people below your arbitrary threshhold, that it might encourage them to attack more?

And individual has just as much expectation of protection by the government as any large group. Moreso, in fact, because the individual is the smallest minority there is.
