Questions after raid pair release

Re: Questions after raid pair release

Just to clarify, MI6 is the foreign intelligence service and MI5 is the domestic intelligence. Similary to the CIA and FBI, in the US, respectively. Now, whether it was the martians of the venutians is irrelevant. Please try explaining that next time a few people are blown up for lapses in security. What amazes me is that there are firebrand clerics pontificating killings from New York to London to Madrid to Lahore, and Muslims wonder why there is a witch hunt. At this point, most, people are willing to accept faulty arrests as a trade off to prevention of mass deaths. If the Muslims have a bad image, it is one of their own creation.

It was quite interesting that I was not able to find at least two relatively intelligent views that matched.

That is what I said the operation was led by MI5. As London is part of UK it is quite obvious that any operation in that city will be led by MI5 the domestic intelligence service.The fact that every time they carry out an operation and tell us that they have very solid intelligence and that it is the tip of the iceberg they end up having egg on their faces. Not a very satisfactory outcome from their point of view. Yet they were totally unaware of the two major terrorist attacks of last year.
