Pete Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 So we wake up this morning to find the UK on critical alert with suspected attack immenent. Nice. I love the way they're describing the suspects as "British Born"...so what's the odds they're also Muslims too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imi Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I'm flying to the US on Saturday. :( Im flying on Monday... - Lets hope that like last time that this is not an over-reaction (TANKS @ Heathrow). While at the same time be sure not to be complacent. The Genie is out of the bottle now, so unfortunately this is the just the start.

Pete Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 We don't know it's a Muslim of the extremist variety yet remember. Last I heard on Radio4 many airlines were going to cancel their flights. If it does turn out that some radical Muslims do succeed in some kind of attack involving the deaths of many innocents I imagine we can expect a severe backlash from the (largely ignorant) public targetted towards many muslims. So glad I don't live in a city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imi Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 no,but were still in afghanistan and iraq. and unconditional support of the terrorist state that is ethnically cleaning the lebanese and palestinians.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Didn't this come up a couple of months ago? There were recorded conversations of two men (who I think are now on trial) talking about what a good idea it would be to blow up planes - they just needed to find enough 'brothers' who would die for the cause. Seems pretty scare tactics to me, sorry for being cynical but it's a good way of taking the focus off the fight in Israel that Blair and Bush are doing nothing about.

michael Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 BBC News - 18 people arrested SKY News - 20 people arrested One chap at work reckons it's a cunning plan to make the airports busy so that the terrorists can walk in off the street and detonate for best effect, hope he's wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm.. Not sure they'd have done it whilst he was on holiday though? (Can you abbreviate "they would have" to they'd've?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah....forgot, no decisions are made without the president and his british poodle. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin_a Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Not sure what they thought they were going to do. Pretty sure walk on bombs are pretty tricky to smuggle past all the security they have anyway. Remember kids, Islam is a religion of peace - that's why Iraq is in a state of civil war, Afghanistan is tearing itself apart, Nigeria has death squads of Islamic militia and Iran is desperately trying to develop nukes to take out the infidels. m.

People should listen to Radio 2, Faris Badawi has been on there a few times and he's got some brilliant views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
