A plot to blow up a nuumber of flights in mid air has been foiled. All major airports are now on full alert and there are delays at all. All passengers are being told they cannot take hand luggage onto the plain and anything in their hand luggage must be put into the plastic bags being passed out by staff. Some items in their hand luggage are now forbidden to be taken on board. Any drinks or food taken on board MUST be tasted and/or sipped by the owner to ensure it is not a chemical. There are massive delays at all airports. The police say this threat would have been "massive murder on a global scale". Please go and buy some newspapers to get the full story Police think they have the main players in custody but are still searching different residential addresses and business's.

Some on here have already told you about the plot to blow up UK planes,ten in all. The arrests concerning this now stand at 21,with more to follow,according to police. I live not far from Heathrow Airport,right on the flight path,so far this morning, I've only had two planes go over. I wonder if there is more to this than we are being told. "Critical" by the way, means an attack is imminent.

In my opinion this is a classic political 'distraction' move. Just ask yourself. Have you seen anything on TV about Israeli attacks on Lebanon this morning? It will allow our government ( & Americans) to introduce even more'police state' laws! It is also designed to make Muslim 'fanatics' look evil and allow Isreal more freedom to occupy territory & 'ethnically cleanse' it. Aren't we all getting a bit cynical about 'Credible Intelligence'? The army occupied Heathrow a while back with NO results, just more 'security' measures!

Its all a bunch of fluff and nonsense due to the media being bored of reporting from Lebanon and there being nothing else on.
