JJackson,

In response to your post:
I would strongly advise against following David's link to the Today program. It was not good stuff, or a debate, it was however robust.
That is why I added in my post:
there is an odd BBC News report
and then a caveat:
Link to a heated studio discussion
. Two traffic light signals I consider enough.

I thought the BBC News item was really odd, with no meaningful explanation, nor did John Pilger IMHO explain his suspicions in the 'discussion' about a potential extradition to the USA.

I too like BBC Radio 4's Today programme, but it has too frequent editorial lapses and gives airtime to the views of tiny minorities, such as Omar Brookes and IIRC Anjem Choudhry.

Pilger has his very clear position, the 'discussion' was badly managed and even 'robust' is being polite - thanks JMA!
