is'nt it amazing how things get reported in different countries.

"direct threat to the United States"
Plan in final stages and "suggestive of an al Qaeda plot," Homeland Secretary Chertoff says."



there has been no mention here of al Qaeda .

usual scare tatics from the US press I guess.

the funny thing is that on the news this morning here in NY, they interviewed a woman from the UK who said something like "this is all b.s., whenever scotland yard feels lonely they invent something like this to get their name back in the news" LOL!

LOL..I would laugh, but I dont blame her for feeling that way...They come out with these reports like once a week or some sh*t...Whenever theres nothing else in the news, they miraculously stop some huge terrorist plot and arrest 30 people...Then they let them out and give them free college tuition and training... Im not in any position to know if they're fibbin' though, so....

Wouldn't surprise me if they just made it all up in the hope as they had big breaking news like Tony has been having a affair with Bush it would go un noticed in the press and public.

I have to say I don't care, honestly, If i'm due to die, I am not going to be able to prevent it, finally, I'm not giving them what they want: fear, I will not give in and not life my life abnormally because of it
