#2 This sounds very do-able. One truck bomb, one driver for massive casualties and long term economic dislocation. Plus major terror effects- who would not think twice about taking a tunnel again?
IMO the two major bang-for-the-buck options for AQ are this one, a truck bomb in a tunnel, and an attack on a bulk LPG carrier in a crowded port. And the tunnel is the simpler option- important if you are short on manpower.

#3 And yet London's Mayor welcomes a thug like Qaradawi and the Finsbury Park mosque is allowed to reopen. Plots like this had better wake up Britain to the fact that "Islamic friendly" workplaces just may not be the answer.

#4 I wonder if that Statie I drove by last night in the Ted Williams Tunnel who was sleeping in his cruiser read about this?
