Yet another interesting development. It would appear that two of the bombing suspects applied or contacted a clearing house so they could enter the
US.
YahooNews
Two suspects in the failed car bombings in Britain had contacted a clearinghouse for foreign doctors about working in the United States, the FBI said
Friday, and British officials probed links between the attacks and al-Qaida in Iraq.
An FBI spokeswoman said Mohammed Asha and another suspect had contacted the Philadelphia-based Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates,
as first reported in The Philadelphia Inquirer. Asha, a Jordanian physician of Palestinian heritage, contacted the agency within the last year, but
apparently did not take the test for foreign medical school graduates, said the spokeswoman, Nancy O'Dowd.

A man is due in court in connection with the suspected car bomb attempts in London and at Glasgow airport.
Iraqi doctor Bilal Abdullah, 27, will appear before Westminster magistrates in London, charged with conspiracy to cause explosions.He is the first
person charged over the suspected attack attempts. The charge carries a maximum life sentence.

Seven other suspects are still being held, one in Australia.
And here is amateur footage of the police arresting the burnt attacker (he's not pretty so be warned!) and the fire crews starting to tackle to
blaze. - ugv.abcnews.go.com...

Oh no say it ain't so, that is impossible this is all a British conspriacy. NOT!
The TimesOnline goes on to claim this may have been planed as a going
away present for Blair, but apparently they had not heard he was appointed the envoy to the Middle East.

The whole thing reeks more of the UK government trying desperately to remind their people that there are "terrorists" in their midst, and thus
whatever atrocitites their troops are comitting in Iraq and Afghanistan are justified. Just like their pathetic attempt at fooling the world with the
botched "airline hijack plot" at Heathrow a while back. Didn't buy that for a nanosecond. Yes, yes amigos...keep the people afraid and they will
dance to your tune.

It seems that they have already released 2 suspects without charge that were releated to the case. There has been a lot of that going on in the UK
following these attacks. Are they jumping the gun or just sloppy?

Here is the link to bbc article. Now doesn't it worry anyone that one of the men was held for
'providing a sim card' to one of the suspects? I mean how does that prove anything but that they knew each other and there was some sort of trust
there? I cant wait to hear what the other one who "knew or believed may be of material assistance in preventing the commission by another of an act
of terrorism" did.

Just back from holiday so a little late to reply. Now I'm back home just south of Glasgow!
Let me get this right. The government hired a doctor to perform a suicide drive into the airport to blow it up. He was ordered to resist arrest and
fight the police should he fail, even if he was on fire!
You're an idiot!
By the way these attacks have nothing to do with Iraq or Afghanistan. They are simply distractions which the extremists use with dumb help of people
in the West linking the two. A quick reminder here. The London tube bombers and these recent bombers were resident in the UK. They know the anti war
sentiment in the UK. They know how many people DIDN'T vote for Blair in the last election. They know how disconnected young women are with politics.
Therefore to specifically target a nightclub which they know will have a large proportion of women is done for one reason and one reason only :
mindless extremist fundamentalist twisted islamic ideals. They wanted to kill western women who are an afront to their beliefs. It has absolutely
NOTHING to do with Iraq.
Linking these attacks to Iraq simply stops the west from confronting the real issue : twisted fanatics.

I heard that cars don't really explode like the do in the movies and it takes a lot more than a gunshot or whatever for that to happen. My friend who
is very into guns and science and such told me this.... any truth?

Stinks of a government hand to me, Paisley Airport would of been the place to attack as it handles a lot of the rendition flights and was a stop over
for a lot of the arms going to Lebanon and the middle east. Moreover the press was saying they thought he was wearing a suicide belt and therefore
evacuated the hospital when he arrived after the attack, but you can see from the pics that all his clothes had been burnt off. Just government
scaremongering to try and get the SNP to have a more hard line on terrorism and give up goals like closing Faslane. - Faslane is the Trident Nuclear
sub base
