Good to hear that these things are being foiled.

I'm a little drunk right now (disclaimer). Is it just me, or does this article completely dodge the issue of motive whatsoever? What kind of "British-born" person would plot to bring down their own country's aircraft??

Didn't read the article as I've watched the news quite a bit today but I'm guessing that was dilberate, they have no real motive.

Those are good news. Happy about that.

Maybe their motive was religious. Many people feel more connetected to other countries/religions/movements rather than their own country.

I'm glad they where stopped. There can never be an adequet excuse for mass murder.

They believe it to be right because of their faith.

I don't need to go into detail as this isn't the right place, you should know why people do it. They are just basically extremists.

Yeah I was thinking that its possibly faith based, to go to heaven for being a "martyr"

Most of these people are born into violence and brought up to hate anything free.

**dadofgage** · 08-11-2006, 12:47 AM

They want to make the world 'Muslim' and if you aren't Muslim, you are the infidel - according to the extremists.

Hehe yes this is good although they didn't really know when bomb attack would take place ... they somehow judged that yesterday was a day to take action.

What I find interesting it is that this happened on exactly the same day as Israel started huge offensive in Lebanon

..... no Lebanon on the news for 2 days now but there are things happening big ..... FOG.press
