    All signs point toward this being terrorism.

    Well, obviously Great Britain is the new front on the War on Terror.

    When do we declare war?

    This is more strange than terrorism.

    It was a burning car. That's it. No bombs. Not (all that) near the planes. Just seems like some cook, like those guys the arrested in Miami a while back.

    It sounds like the would-be bombers didn't rig the explosives correctly. The SUV just caught on fire, instead of exploding.

    Thanks goodness for stupid wannabe terrorists.

    There was a bomb of sorts, full of nails and gasoline. The idiots behind it just went and fucked up what they were trying to do. Thank goodness for idiocy.

    Who's he?
     
  8. Larry Johnson, the ex-spook and not the ex-forward for Charlotte, said on TV that, had the London devices worked, this is exactly what would have happened. The vehicle would have burned.

    Sky News reporting the hospital where one of the suspects was taken has been evacuated.

    And the Blackpool airport has been closed and emptied.
