First London - now glasgow?

[DoubleBluff]

Looks like an attempt to bomb Glasgow airport has been disrupted.
Where next?

Sorry, WASNT being flippant - mistyped

i know you weren't. I needed you to say that

Now it transpires the guy in the hospital had a device on him - thankfully they found that out before he blew the hospital away. They should have just left him to smoulder on the pavement.

oh my god..he had a suicide belt and its linked to the London bombings

That would have been my first thought. I'd have run away as fast I could despite this guy burning away because I'd assume he had a device on him.

Shame, but hey, that honestly would have been the first thought to cross my mind.

i doubt i'd have the presence of mind to do anything other than gawp uselessly.

I think if I was a Muslim woman, I definitely wouldn't be wearing the hijab right now, it'd just inflame non-muslims' fury even more.

And whilst Tony Blair has obviously made the cock up of the century in invading Iraq, the fact is that hundreds of people are dying in Iraq everyday because Sunnis blow up Shias and vice versa, not because British troops are doing so.

We should pull our troops out now and leave them to it.

I feel extreme sympathy for Muslim women at the moment- it must be scary to be a normal peaceable person going about your business knowinga few uneducated prats have you amrked out as a Terrorist because of an item of clothing. Normal Muslims are just as much victims of this (and the peope inside the airport could have been anybody- Muslim included) as anyone, in many ways more so.

Apart from 2 M-Netters I know wear the Hijab pretty much anyone we talk to on here could, these sites are one of societies great equalisers. And I really hope that all the Muslim netters out there have a peaceable week with no troubble from this

Well said Peachy, These women have been in my thoughts as well
