Three charged over Dover weapons
2003-08-31
The port was closed to traffic for seven hours on Friday evening after weapons were found in a car arriving on a ferry from Calais. Police were keen to stress the charges they face are of a criminal and not terrorist nature. The three men are Amir Khan, a county court bailiff from Kensington; Ramin Malique, a garage manager from Clapham; and Zubiar Khan, from west London.
I guess Laurence of the Rats called that one... (Easy one — If it wasn't Mahmoud and Ahmed it had to be Pat and Mike...)

#4  Criminal means you get air-conditioning, cooked food, and TV for entertaiment.

Terrorist means you get Civil Liberties groups helping you, but you have to stay in a dirt room and eat the rats on the floor.

#2  It was easy. Seems like when they (the press) don't quickly give out names of suspects, they usually end up being of the 'exotic' variety.

What's the difference between criminal charges and terrorist charges, btw? Seems like the same thing to me...

#1  I would stress that too if three men of Middle Eastern descent got arrested trying to smuggle weapons into the UK. It would represent a failure of the EU to effectively deal with a problem which is surely going to swallow up their cultures and their plans.

When are the gloves gonna come off with these misanthropic bastards and their enablers/supporters?
