British letter bomb, terror, and Ministry of Defense mole
A letter bomb exploded today in London near Scotland yard 'on the street that leads from Victoria railway station to Parliament.' Capita Group PLC's head office in central London was the scene of the incident that left one woman slightly injured.
We are still investigating the cause of that and the Met's counter-terrorism command are looking at all the issues behind that explosion,' he said. ...A spokeswoman for Capita, the support services giant which operates London's congestion charge, confirmed the company has contingency plans and is operating as usual, with none of its IT or data systems being compromised. ...
A Met spokeswoman earlier said the police were 'not in a position to discuss who may or may not have been responsible'. (source)
Concerning the terror raids and arrests in the UK last week, British Muslims are being 'urged to stay calm'. Some Muslims have expressed their disappointment over being 'demonized'. Assistant chief constable David Shaw said, "What we are dealing with here in its purest sense is criminality."
No constable Shaw, what you are dealing with is TERRORISM. Those arrested were planning to kidnap at least 25 people, torture them, behead them 'Iraq style", and display it all on the internet.
Speaking at Friday prayers at the city's main mosque, one Muslim leader said Britain was turning into a "police state," and compared Muslims' treatment now to that of Jews in Nazi Germany. ...But he told some 2,000 Muslims who turned up for worship: "The country is moving toward a police state. That's not right. We have to change this.
"The German people were told the Jews were a threat. The same thing is happening here. The Muslims are now the bogey people," he said. "It's a small community. It's easy to pick on them. That's what's being done." (source)
How did the terrorists, who were al-qaeda connected and directed, get the names of the 25 military people they planned to behead?
Defence chiefs have launched an urgent investigation into how a gang of suspected Islamic terrorists obtained a list of names and addresses for 25 serving British Muslim soldiers as part of an alleged plot to kidnap and behead a serviceman. Senior officers are alarmed that the hitlist includes home addresses as far apart as Glasgow and the West Country.A priority will be to ensure that no Ministry of Defence "mole" provided the suspected terror cell with such top-secret personal information.
All those on the hitlist are understood to be serving members of the regular army. (source)
Sounds very suspicious. The good news is, one soldier allowed himself to be used as "bait" to help flush out the suspected gang of Islamic extremists.
Debbie - I'm sorry that posted twice! :(

Perpetual victims. I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around how people fall for the claims they are victimized.
Comparing themselves to Jews in Nazi Germany?? They are the ones who are declaring they'll push Israel into the sea. They also claim the holocaust didn't happen.
Which is it? They want it both ways. They are using the the marxists/socialists very effectively.
