Major UK Islamic Terrorist Plot Foiled Little Green Footballs A major Al Qaeda bombing plot has been foiled in London today in a series of early morning raids that involved hundreds of police. (Hat tip: Rantburg.) <<< An al Qaeda plot to blast London was dramatically foiled by police today. Seven hundred police swooped in a series of 6am raids in the capital and the Home Counties. They found half a tonne of fertiliser explosives - enough for a series of terror “spectaculars”. The terrorist suspects arrested by police are believed to have chosen “soft targets” for bombings including pubs and clubs. One of the suspects being held had a job at Gatwick Airport, immediately raising concerns over airlines and passengers. A total of eight men - all of them British citizens of Pakistani descent, three of them teenagers - were arrested in the operation, with police from five forces searching a total of 24 addresses across London and the South-East. The ammonium nitrate explosives were discovered in a self-storage warehouse in Hanwell, west London and have now been made safe. They are the same explosives that al Qaeda used in attacks in Bali, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. thisislondon.com >>>
