Justice is done

That the civil case against the Omagh bombers has succeeded is wonderful news, a triumph for justice against terror. Ruth Dudley-Edwards, who is writing what will be a superb book on the trial, has a moving piece in the Mail today about what the families went through and what the verdict meant to them.

All those who helped the family achieve justice—the lawyers, Robert Cranborne, Peter Mandelson, the Mail and many others —deserve immense credit. Thanks to them and the awe-inspiring determination and courage of the families, the bombers have not got away with murder.
