If it was terrorists, they were hilariously inept.

Incidentally, you may want to change the thread title. It was in Scotland.

I'm sick of idiots planning attacks on the U.S. or the U.K. and it being claimed "ZOMG AL QUEDA!!!"

It is giving Al-Queda a bad name. If this is the best they can do, what the hell are we worried about?

These attacks and the "foiled" attacks which happen every few months in the U.S. are being done by independant actors, not any organized terrorist group.

I was just wondering today why the terrorists haven't tried anything in Scotland, since Scots aren't bomb-savvy like Londoners are. Since this took place in Glasgow, England, it seems like Scotland's off the hook yet again.

That smiley forcibly reminds me of genitalia, can you do something about that..

**kuklame** · 07-01-2007, 01:59 AM

That is just obscene.

**elalmhicabalp** · 07-01-2007, 02:32 AM

Seems to be a far bigger deal there than where it happened.

American hysteria.

**Julik19** · 07-01-2007, 02:45 AM

A burning car in Glasgow? They should visit Dagenham, they have no shortage of them

**Diondra** · 07-01-2007, 03:06 AM

I would have thought those that cancelled (if any) would not be at the airport to answer the question.

The current terrorism threat level is Critical Well I'd better get stocked up on tinned food and arm myself to the teeth - looks like the end of the world is here...

**retrahdggd** · 07-01-2007, 04:02 AM

Glasgow airport shut down, folks stranded on the tarmac. I saw a report (on CNN) of Liverpool airport shutdown, dont know what thats about.

Successive hits in two days in opposite ends of the UK, that did manage to get explosives, and one of the three managed to set alight and at least try to explode. I dont know if it exploded, but it was at least a big fire, the terminal looks pretty damaged.

This cell seems to far more competent than the groups in the US that we've heard about so far. Thank goodness for their poor driving, for alert police, and in Glasgow for the security bollards.

At also appears that part of the hospital in Glasgow where the burnt guy (burning man?) was taken was evacuated due to a suspect device (a suicide belt?)
Perhaps the intended tactic was to have him run inside with the belt while vehicle distracted security. I dont know.

UK security seems wise to treat this with the utmost seriousness until more is known.

In which case you guys have little to fear.

**prmwsinfo** · 07-01-2007, 03:41 PM

If you call these antics 'competent' I don't think we have too much to fear

**hexniks** · 07-01-2007, 06:01 PM

They should change their name to Al-Qlownda
