Attack at Glasgow Airport - Page 3

glasgow guy · 30-06-2007, 20:48

it says on the news that it might be because the queen and othe dignatries were in scoltand at the scottish parliament..?
but other than that I have no idea why target scotland either...unless it was some crazy asians (as reported) jumping on the ' I want to be a martyr and have a 1000 virgins waiting for me ' bandwagon as it was quite a botch job as they said on fox news..

they have also said that one of the suspects who was taken to hospital was found to be wearing a suspicious device...

Go for it Brian..........This has brought home to all American, British and all right minded people of the world what savages these animals are.
Is it not time that these people and their followers are brought to book.
If they get a bloody nose for their activities in any part of the world they rely on the sensationalism of the world press to get them off the hook.

I may have stated this before,but if Paradise/ 1000 virgins et al is such a certainty,why oh why aren't the Terrorist bosses at the front of the queue when it comes to volunteering?
When they can answer this I will (as my late father used to say )show my a***in Burton's window.

you see the leaders are more westernised than us its all about money they use the islam as an excuse its like bin laden why did he have all those operations to keep him alive and then order suicide bombers to bomb and kill the answers in the question

cashman · 30-06-2007, 22:32

it was the start of the scottish childrens holidays LYY, thats good enough reason for murdering scum like these, fortunatly it failed in its purpose.

cmonstanley · 30-06-2007, 23:26

suicide belt found on one of the bombers.the one in hospital just shows how brave the members of the public and security services were tackling him.bring back torture and find out who else is out there ready to bomb us.as cashman says its the beginning of the school holidays one of the busiest days of the year. they were trying to kill and maim as many men woman and children as possible.scum

scum

Women suicide bombers are the worst! They are meant to get to be like queen or a higher regarded virgin if u may.

People throught history have done stupid, pointless things due to religious beliefs. Jihadists aren't the first and they certainly wont be the last of them.

Its a shame because traditions in religion like this continue throughout history but traditions such as building magnificent monuments to celebrate peoples lives/deaths and temples for the religious beliefs no longer seem important.

Brian's my big Brother, Mr Sulky chops.

Here you go again, using yet another thread to have another dig.

A grown up would realise it's time to get over it.

Jealousy is such an unhealthy trait.

LancYorkYankee · 01-07-2007, 02:33

Okay, it just shows how ultra cowardly these "b**^$$#^&(bad guys)"are. I mean, I could understand them attacking America and England as we are the ones "in this." I abhore any attacks on civilians but especially on a country that hasn't been as involved as others.

I mean, I really kinda expect an attack on Washington, DC, or other symbolic area. Wouldn't a more "appropriate" (not meaning it right please) battleplan be to attack the great satan. Or one of the great satan's military bases. Yeah, I know it would be difficult but wouldn't the difficulty factor earn them even more skanky virgins ( . . . can you have a skanky virgin?).

Okay, as you can see, I'm probably not being properly understood but I hope my "thoughts" can be somewhat desciphered.

Cute response up there bruv Rindy!

i was listening to the radio on the way to work and they had some scottish MP/intelligence guy and he said this shows the fact that parliment has been so caught up in protecting london that it didnt bother with the rest of hte uk

they wouldnt have got near heathrow or gatwick but the fact of the matter is glasgow etc was seen by them as an easier target than london.

which is totally true. they get a slight whisper and tanks are bought outside heathrow with concrete barriers and all manchester et all get is metal bars from the ground.

whats really amazed me is the amount of eye witness acounts that started coming almost instantly.

i'm just glad there was no serious injuries - i was workin at a hotel tonight and kept having a look around on the street just in case. parked my car right infront of the doors and i'm normally not one to fluster easy.

apparently a car and its occupants were arrested on the M6 in cheshire too

mani · 01-07-2007, 05:18

LYY - it wouldnt make sense for terrorists to go anywhere near a major landmark or a high potential target like a base as they know they wont get near it. thats why in iraq u hear of bombs going off in marketplaces etc public areas and more chance of gettin a result.

Hang on here.. Glasgow is part of the UK.. by saying England are the ones "in this" do you mean Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are not "in it" ? The vast majority of MP's from Scotland,Wales and Ireland voted for "the war against terror"...it may be worth remembering that Tony Blair is Scottish by birth and Gordon Brown is certainly Scottish, they are or have been the Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom.. Scotland is part of that union.

Brian, as Mancie posted, the Britain's armed forces are made up of people from all over the UK.

Sadly it was only this week that two twenty year olds Scots were killed in Iraq.

So is your affliction but that does not bother me.
I have been grown up quite a lot longer than you,if you cant read that in the posts I'm sorry.
I think it's quite obvious I don't think much of your humour, smut, inuendo's
and arrogance. What does bother me is that you keep getting away with it.
If this post results in a removal or a ban so be it.

Please feel free to report any of my posts that break forum rules.

I didn't report the post were you broke the rules, by not posting in English, by the way. I thought a friendly warning would be more civilised.
