More terror suspects in Britain
The number of terror suspects being monitored by Britains domestic security agency, MI5, has risen by 25 percent in the last six months, BBC online reported on Wednesday.The approximately 2,000 people now being watched are thought to be actively involved in supporting Al Qaeda, the broadcaster reported, and experts highlighted links which some have to terrorist training camps in Pakistan. I think this is the strongest connection that we are confronted with at the moment, not least because of the historical connections between Pakistan and Britain, Peter Neumann, from Kings College Londons defence studies centre, told the broadcaster. This will likely be the greatest source of vulnerability at least for Britain. Posted by: Fred 2007-05-03 |
