| 3rd man arrested in London bombing attempt |
| 2005-07-24 |
| British police have arrested a third man in connection with attempted bombings on London's transport network last Thursday, a police spokesman said on Sunday. The man was arrested in the Tulse Hill area of south London on Saturday night under anti-terrorism legislation, the spokesman said. Two other suspects remain in custody, he added. "He was arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism," the spokesman said. "He has now been taken to a central London police station for further questioning." A police source said the man was not thought to be one of the four prime suspects being sought over the failed bombings, which came exactly two weeks after suicide bombers killed 52 people in an attack officials have linked to al Qaeda. |

| #1 Kudos to the coppers. But when it takes years (and it will) of huge manpower and other resource investments - not to mention making those resources unavailable for other work - to track down, incarerate, build an evidentiary stockpile sufficient for trial, prove the case, and then send said perps to jail for what, 6, 7, 10, 20 years? What has actually been accomplished? Law Enforcement is clean-up, not preventative. It is the social-feel-good alternative of treating symptoms, rather than the disease. I am hopeful that the cousins will begin to peel away the layers of multi-culti PCism which hamstrings them. Faster is better = fewer dead and "radicalized" (read: activated). I remain hopeful. Sir Winston made it clear as glass. His wisdom has been forgotten, as is the goal of socialist / revisionist PCism, and must be rediscovered. |
