"Don`t shoot! Let them burn!"
ABC news reporting the London incident is linked and a bystander is shown saying one of the perps was shouting Allah, Allah, Allah.
In public, the White House and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff have continued to maintain they know of no specific or credible threats involving the United States, even though the intelligence reports specify US aircraft as possible targets.
Did ABC leak this, OR was it part of the ABC-Pentagon PR plan?
That Michael Chertoff would know ANYTHING would suprise me.
Obvioulsy a Rovian directed plot to instill hate and fear in the peace lovers of the world.
We all now know that the War on Terror isn’t real, it is just a Bumper Sticker Slogan.
John Edwards wouldn’t lie, would he? *sarc off*
Our so-called "intelligence agencies" give themselves way too much credit.
A: He doesn't wan't them (or us) riled up about our "immigrant communities".
Maybe Jorge Boosh, our worst president since Hoover, really did know what was going down on 9/11 and decided not to act. It's total speculation, but from the trends and historical facts, it's not aimless.
"Don`t shoot! Let them burn!"
Specific and credible threat: My buddy and I are going to light our car on fire and then smash it into the Glasgow airport, and here’s the image of our pathetic bombs.
A rumor: Watch the news when the full moon comes in Glasgow! Praise Allah!
The US heard, likely from the Brits, that there was possibly an attack coming on an airport, and took action based on the level of intelligence (assigning air marshals to these flights.) What more is the US supposed to do?
“More Moslems came, and soon a small mosque was built, which attracted yet others. As long as Zoroastrians remained in the majority, their lives were tolerable; but once the Moslems became the more numerous, a petty but pervasive harassment was apt to develop. This was partly verbal, with taunts about fire-worship, and comments on how few Zoroastrians there were in the world, and how many Moslems, who must therefore posses the truth; and also on how many material advantages lay with Islam. The harassment was often also physical; boys fought, and gangs of youth waylaid and bullied individual Zoroastrians. They also diverted themselves by climbing into the local tower of silence and desecrating it, and they might even break into the fire-temple and seek to pollute or extinguish the sacred flame. Those with criminal leanings found too that a religious minority provided tempting opportunities for theft, pilfering from the open fields, and sometimes rape and arson. Those Zoroastrians who resisted all these pressures often preferred therefore in the end to sell out and move to some other place where their co-religionists were still relatively numerous, and they could live at peace; and so another village was lost to the old faith.”

Ah yes,that hotbed of pro-American, anti-Muslim sentiment. /s
I found this still photo of the burning vehicle.
Maybe they accidentally put the Jihadie out while trying to contain the fire? Notice they are concentrating on the burning portion of the terminal, not the Jihadie Jeep.
for later
