If this government cannot keep the people safe without infringing on civil liberties then they must be removed from office.

I think the most telling line in this propaganda piece is "But a senior security source last night told The Scotsman that claim was "questionable." - That must really irk "psycho reid".

I'm afraid I have to agree with Mojo, this is another propoganda piece by the government, and unfortunately seen and replicated as newsworthy by the press. You will note that in all of the coverage across many media of this 'event' (can't see any details?) there are no 'real' people to whom the comments can be traced, nor any tangible evidence which can be published and verified. This is part of the ongoing efforts of the government to take away civil liberty and freedom of speech. It is time for some members of the press to dig deeper and expose this for what it is - pure propoganda.

Government propaganda? What was July 7 then? A figment of my imagination? No, it can't be. I knew someone who went to work on that tube that day. It was the last thing she ever did. She is dead now.

Congratulations Jean, you spotted that there is indeed one fact in the piece. A terrorist action was taken on the 7th of July. I think however you are missing the point. The implication is that this article contains NO NEWS. It merely contains speculation on the supposed expansion of Al-Qaeda in order to feed fear into the public domain in order to strengthen the governments "rights" to infringe upon everybody's freedom.

I believe you will find that home-grown good old fashioned white british people (violent criminals) still cause many more deaths in this country than any terrorist group ever has or will. The point being that a disproportionate amount of coverage is given over to feeding this fear from abroad.

Mojo, British governments have infringed civil liberties before (via ID cards etc), notably during two world wars. It's called common sense.

This is just more government propaganda against Muslim people

Actually, "good old fashioned white british people" are significantly less violent that certain other ethnic minorities in proportion to their share of population.

Eg. black Londoners are twelve times more likely than whites to be investigated for homicide:

More propaganda against Muslim People...lol...if u lot were not so violent,in speech, act & deed,we wouldnt even have to think about Muslims in our midst! Perhaps if u followed Mahatma Gandi ways, u would find most of non-muslims happy to help u achieve Some of the issues u have problems with, or at least find a sympathic ear.....

Dave 3....its maybe too cold, windblown in ur part of Scotland for these guys, but am pretty sure, they are sitting somewhere in Bonnie Scotland planning something....Londoners didnt believe UK born & bred football/cricket playing Muslims would commit such a Horrific act like 7/7...only when it happens in Scotland will the Scots wake up to the new reality!

Just the sort of reply I expected "Whatever"..... very" Little Britain." I hear "whatever" when am trying to have a talk with my teenagers....When recently Polled about Apathy,most Scots said They couldnt care less....we have certainly became a dull lot!

Any act of muslim terrorism in Scotland would certainly be met with voilence in the streets. I don't think Scots would stand for it, unlike Londonstan which is so cosmopolitan now that they talk rather than act.

9. Mohammad, Leith : - Quote: This is just more government propaganda against Muslim people: unquote.

And I suppose you think the article printed below is propaganda as well: Oh no, it is the all too familiar truth. Look at the source before accusing the Western media!

I would like to hear how you and your kind would justify this abdominal behavior. All in the name of your prophet, whose name you bear. In my opinion Muslims who either agree with, or fail to condemn, these actions are unfit to be in the company of civilized people.

Regretfully it seems the only way to be rid of you it to vote BNP and that is now happening. Should the BNP gain power then Muslims be afraid, be very afraid your visit to Allah may just be around the corner and sooner than you think.

Iraq: Muslims Behead Priest, Crucify Teenage Boy
The plight of Christians in Iraq has never been more difficult. Today in Mosul, the funeral was held of the Assyrian priest, Father Paulos Iskander He had been kidnapped on Monday, states the Assyrian International News Agency (AINA). A ransom was posted for his return, set at either $250,000 or $350,000. The kidnappers demanded that notices be posted on the door of his church, apologizing for the comments made by Pope Benedict XVI, before any negotiations could start.
Father Iskander (Alexander) was beheaded on Wednesday. AINA posted an email sent by Father Adris Hanna, which we are reproducing, with apologies to the Swedish-based priest and AINA:
The Syriac-Orhtodox priest Paulos Iskandar was kidnapped this Monday, October 9, and beheaded today Wednesday October 11. The Bishop in Mosul wrote me an email tonight and told me that the funeral will be held in Mosul tomorrow.
Christians are living a terrified life in Mosul and Baghdad. Several priests have been kidnapped, girls are being raped and murdered and a couple of days ago a fourteen year old boy was crucified in the Christian neighborh

Yes the BNP may be the only answer to the extemist scum. The racist murder of the young boy in Glasgow proves the level these Allah lovers will stoop to. The press reports on this case wouldn't be out of place in any backward muslim country. This lot want us all to live in a world likended to Mad Max

The UK has become the 2nd most observed populace, behind North Korea.

This government, or the next one must not be given the freedom to continue this march towards total surveillance.

Many thousands of people died during WW2 protecting our freedoms and our god-given right to live free.

We must not under any circumstances allow a fascist government to incrementally do to us what Hitler had planned.

Turn off Channel 4's big brother and pay attention to the one on your doorstep.

"Should the BNP gain power then Muslims be afraid, be very afraid your visit to Allah may just be around the corner and sooner than you think."

This just isn't what the BNP stand for at all. Law abiding Muslims who want to integrate have got nothing to fear from the BNP;

BNP policies are for an end to large scale immigration, a crack down on crime (including crime by whites against Asians) and an end to PC undermining of British culture and discrimination against the white majority.

The BNP does have extremist roots but over the years it has evolved into something much more moderate than how it is portrayed by much of the media, just as the Labour party has evolved from Communists to a major mainstream party.

Alexander and all you other racists, don't think that BNP will ever take power in UK. Only racist whites vote for BNP and because most whites are to lazy and selfish to have babies there numbers will get less. Multiculturalism is the future for UK

The terrorists are already here. in the UK thanks to Blair's shambolic refugee system which allowed them in. they simply masquerade as refugees. now they are waiting for the green light. to appear.

Me - I'm with you.

#21 - and will the Middle East become 'multicultural' too? I think not - we have relatives who work there and they can't buy a house (if they wanted to) because they are 'foreigners' - and you say "whites are too lazy and selfish to have children? Well I am a white female and do not fall into that category - nor do I fall into the category of the female muslim who was pregnant and was about to blow herself, her unborn child and hundreds of innocent individuals on a plane before British security foiled their cowardly plan.
