British Islamist Hell comes alive
Reader comment on item: More Survey Research from a British Islamist Hell

Submitted by Vijay (United Kingdom), Aug 10, 2006 at 03:32

With so much of ideological backing for Extremist islam and Jihadist Islam n Britain, no wonder British Muslims have taken a crack at the latest instance of mass casualty trrorism.

Police have arrested 18 British born Muslims (presumably Pakistanis) who tried to blow up a number of civil aircraft midair while flying to the US. All British airports put under high surveillance and inevitably the passengers have been delayed by many hours

'Plot to blow up planes' foiled

A terrorist plot to blow up planes in mid-flight from the UK to the US has been disrupted, Scotland Yard has said.

It is thought the plan was to detonate explosive devices smuggled on aircraft in hand luggage.

Police have arrested about 18 people in the London area after an anti-terrorist operation lasting several months.

Security at all airports in the UK has been tightened and delays are reported. MI5 has raised the UK threat level to critical - the highest possible.

According to MI5's website, critical threat level means "an attack is expected imminently and indicates an extremely high level of threat to the UK".
