Ok so now we are told that british inteligence has thwarted a major attemp at blowing up aircraft between UK & USA,

Any proof? What other world events are actually taking place right now that this mad mass histeria of media could be hiding?

Any body any views on this at all, Or do you think it's just a rahash of scare mongering?

I think this is the third time they have foiled this particular plot, but never seem to have anything concrete or actually arrest any of the plotters.

Just more booga-booga to keep the people thinking we are surrounded by terrorists and need to be protected?

Not only "booga-booga" but an intention to get the American people to "back" the UK. For what specific reason, I am not sure...

Did they say if any of the plotters were related to the IRA?

Is it election time in UK?

IRA no longer are a terrorist threat. they are disarming, just like ETA

Some one called it correctly on another thread. 9/11 was to definatedly happen- everything else will be an "almost" happened to keep taking more liberty away..day by day.

They've publicly announced that they will no longer cause any more terrorism, but members of their faction still cause violence. I have a couple of friends living in North of England who say they are still vanadlized, assaulted, and harrased by IRA members.
