Terrorist Plot Foiled In Birmingham

MI-5 and other British counter terrorism units foiled yet another terrorist plot today this time in the city of Birmingham. The plot was taken right out of the old IRA playbook, capture a British soldier, however unlike the IRA, these guys were going to capture a Moslem soldier and behead him on the internet. Last week the BBC aired an undercover story about extremists preaching jihad in the biggest mosque in London, the iman in the secret footage preached for an overthrow of British law in favor of sharia, as well as the inferiority of women and the opinion that they should be beaten until they wear the hijib headcovering. This lovely fellow also said it was permissable for older men to marry girls as young as 9. What the hell is going on in dear old Blighty? As a secular nation Britain should do as the French did and ban medieval headscarfs altogether in public schools etc, I have spent a fair amount of time in England, I first went there in 95 when the IRA was still blowing up things in London, and I remember people being kind of nonchalent about the threat, stiff-upper lip and all that. I think that attitude may have led them to be complacent about the extremist that now are plotting their destruction. The IRA only wanted "Brits out of Ulster" these maniacs want to overthrow the British govt and establish sharia in the birthplace of the Magna Carta. It does seem that the intelligence services in the UK are being proactive and are foiling plots, I just hope by Blair supporting W's asinine war, the Brits haven't made themselves more vulnerable at home.

The Brits do it right, with old fashion police work.

Our tactics are laughable.

Absolutely, handle terrorism as a police and criminal matter, don't spend billions and waste lives invading states that have a flimsy link at best with terrorism.

I would like to see a world order in which it would be illegal to attempt to return civilization to the Dark Ages, whether by violence or persuasion... scheise.

Terrorism should definitely be considered a police and criminal matter. What you both said!!
