I think with regard to the US viewpoint, it's a case of the loudest people being heard.
The loudest people in cases like these tend to be pig ignorant and simply don't possess the patience, or intellect, to reconsider evidence. The don't want to hear anything and they would love this guy to hang.
Hang him and closure comes right behind, the case is wrapped up neatly.
Hollywoodtacular.
Obviously this isn't representative of all, I mean there were heroic and vocal people who lost loved ones in the twin towers but they refused to have those loved ones names be used in a roundabout quasi moral justification for the war on Iraq.
As regards Obama etc. mouthing off, this is a soft case for them - they don't want to be seen as being "soft" on terrorism. He/others can say one thing in public but they have no intention of trying to exert real tangible pressure on Scotlands legal system.
