Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

First of all any one who was involved will be a british citizen.. so keep your hatred for Pakistan in check. Mods, can you take care of this pesk now. Blaming Pakistan for these so called terror folied attacks without proof is irresponsible. Plus he is doing it to rile up the guppies. Sometimes premptive strike is needed and this may be the case where you use it.

Thank god they foiled this attack... Now I hope they find everyone whos behind it as fast as possible and prevent any further attacks.

UK terror threat now ‘critical’
**
The UK’s national terrorism threat level has been raised to “critical” after attacks in Glasgow and London.**
Prime Minister Gordon Brown urged the public to be vigilant and added: “I know the British people will stand together, united and resolute.”
The announcement came after a meeting of the government emergencies committee Cobra, following a burning car being driven into a Glasgow airport terminal.
On Friday, two car bombs were found in central London.
Ministers, police and security service officials held their third meeting of Cobra in three days on Saturday evening, this time with a video link to ministers in Scotland.
Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said the security service’s Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre raised the level and appropriate measures have been put in place to protect the public.

The critical threat level indicates terrorist attacks are imminent. It is the highest possible level and was also in place after the 7 July 2005 suicide bomb attacks on London.
Police in the capital are checking CCTV footage in their investigation into the planting of two car bombs.
Strathclyde Police have arrested two people in connection with the incident at Glasgow Airport.
Eyewitnesses have described a Jeep Cherokee being driven at speed towards the main doors of Glasgow airport’s terminal building with flames coming out from underneath shortly after 1500 BST.
Downing Street has refused to comment on whether the events in Scotland and London are connected, saying it was a matter for the police.
**
Petrol and gas**

The BBC’s Andy Tighe said there were “worrying similarities” between the two incidents but no-one in authority had yet made any “firm linkage.”
All flights to and from the airport have been suspended.
A Scottish government spokesperson said Scottish Ministers were in touch with their Whitehall opposite numbers and First Minister Alex Salmond and have spoken to Mr Brown.
Mr Salmond and Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill took part in the Cobra meeting.
Scottish Conservative justice spokesman Bill Aitken said details about the incident were still “scant” but added: "Once the full information is available from Strathclyde Police we will need to react.
“I am sure that there will be a calm and realistic assessment and in the meantime one can only feel desperately sorry for the thousands of passengers who will have been inconvenienced as a result of what is clearly a serious incident.”
Earlier in the day, Cobra met to discuss the London car bomb attempts.
In the early hours of Friday, two Mercedes containing petrol, gas cylinders and nails were found left outside the Tiger Tiger club in Haymarket and a nearby street but the devices did not detonate.
Unconfirmed reports suggest police may have an image of a suspect leaving the vehicle left outside the Tiger Tiger club.
Police increased patrols and security for events in London over the weekend, including the Gay Pride parade, the Concert for Diana at Wembley Stadium and the Wimbledon tennis championships.

the idiots who rammed the car in the airport probably feel like morons. not only did they not accomplish their goals thank god, from what I hear one of them then tried to throw gasoline under the car and then set it on fire..and i guess atleast one of the has been caught .. burnt extra crispy colonel style..but once he has recovered, he has some serious chirol to look forward to. Guys wanted to be een as some badasses, but only came off lookign like ass clowns.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

Sadly, some Muslims continue to live in denial, part of the problem :(

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

Al-Qaeda type terrorism in the UK has been committed by mostly Pakistani's, a simple fact.
If they had a British ppt, it is irrelevant as they obviously did not consider themselves 'British'.

Thus it is now only natural for people to make that connection

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

^ Nope. No matter what you say, those guys were born and raised in UK, hence they are british citizens. Its only people like you who want to associate pakistan with it.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

hope they are dealt with properly and we dont know who it was yet do we? so why squibble about nationality.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

As far as the bombings are concerned, for the last two times in UK, people who were caught by S.Y. did not consider themselves British. They were more of paki than british......it is very much evident by the stuff they did. If some people think that they had no connection with Pakistan then God help them !!

living in a dream world, reality check needed

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

Which two times are your referring to. The bombing of 7 july was the work of British nationals of Pakistani and West Indian origin, the attackers on 21 july were all of somalian origin.

The attackers of this act are still not clear.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

One refreshing change from the time when Bush's poodle was incharge there has been no political point scoring and no Muslim bashing.

Re: Terror attack stopped in London; Bomb found, defused.

okay so people of Pakistani/Indian origin who put bombs in Britain are clearly Paki. What about people of Pakistani/Indian origin who put bombs in Pakistan?
