I guess so. Keep in mind, the UK has more liberal leadership...and lacks things such as wiretapping and the Patriot Act. The stuff that has kept the USA safe is not in place in the UK.

I tell ya...these terrorists like attacking in Summer.

I don't think it's possible to adequately respond to this vile hackery without breaking site rules about personal attacks.

Talking of Fox, I was flicking through all the international news channels on Wednesday and Fox were the only one not to cover, even a little bit, Brown replacing Blair as P.M (at least not when I was looking at it).

Just heard on the radio that there's been some sort of incident at Glasgow airport.

It would be interesting to know why Glasgow was a target.

The only thing I can think of is those death threats to Mohammed Sarwar.

I think the worry is that there could be a more serious attack anywhere in the UK.

That the ones responsible for the botched attack in London are (presumably) still at-large is probably the main worry.

Security level raised to critical, meaning an attack is imminent, not sure if it means another is coming, or if this one has sparked the move.

The latter, combined with the attempted attacks in London. Security level (presumably) won't drop until authorities have found some people that they're looking for (that's the way they usually do these things).
