British police arrest 10 terror suspects

Reuters | 09.10.2005 05:02 | Terror War

So they weren't Irish, and the media always shouts "Arab/Muslim" when that group is targeted. There is only one group the media consistently shies away from identifying, the ones driving this Madness. But I'll wait and see how this develops ...

British police arrest 10 terror suspects

Saturday 08 October 2005, 20:55 Makka Time, 17:55 GMT

Police did not say which group they targeted in the raid

British police have arrested 10 men suspected of involvement in international terrorism in early morning raids in three cities, a police statement said.

The country has been fearful of further attacks since four British Islamic militants blew themselves up and killed 52 passengers on the London transport system in July.

Police would not say what sort of group they targeted in the raids, conducted with help from the Security Service also known as MI5, although they did say the investigation was separate from the inquiry into the London bombings.

A police spokeswoman would only confirm the arrests were not linked to Irish republicanism. She would not specify the nationality of those arrested.

Intelligence

Three men were arrested in the Croydon area of south London while seven were arrested in the English Midlands - four in Wolverhampton and three in Derby, a police statement said.

"At approximately 4am today police executed warrants at three residential addresses, making a total of 10 arrests, all on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism under the Terrorism Act 2000," it said.

"The arrests were made as the result of an intelligence led investigation involving police and the Security Service."

Police were searching the three locations raided, the statement said.

Police would not say what sort of group they targeted in the raids, therefore, there is no chance that their names will be disclosed, or that will they will be entitled to the due process of law as enshrined in Habeas Corpus. In effect, they have been 'disappeared' by the State.

Prove that assumption.

Observer


Bring on the goons.

When living in the year 1943, prove the assumption that jews are being killed en masse.

Hitler used exactly the same tactic as observer, one of Blair's New Reich goons!!!
No matter how many previous crimes were clearly documented, he could always say 'prove it' about new ones, until it was too late to make a difference.

It is an old, old tactic. On the other hand, do not expect any of Blair's Black Propagandists to try any NEW tactics here. Indymedia does NOT get the creme de la creme of Blair's goons, More like the knuckle dragging dribblers that make up most (but not all) of his key ground support.

Please note that these goons all bounced back unabashed after the discussions over the murder of the Brazilian on the underground. They tried the EXACT same tactic then, were PROVEN to be 100% wrong, but DID NOT change their position in the slightest. A POLITICAL HUMAN THAT DOES NOT APPEAR TO LEARN FROM EXPERIENCE WAS AWARE OF THE TRUTH ALL ALONG, AND MERELY SOUGHT TO MANIPULATE.

Blair's goons did take some action on the murder. THEY BRUTALISED AND ARRESTED THE WOMEN RESPOSIBLE FOR TELLING US THE TRUTH.

This is 'observer's' REALITY!!! Telling you to shut up, because YOU don't have access to the facts, and then ensuring that anyone with the facts is terrorised and prevented from disseminating them!!!

Straight back to 1943, when Hitler and his goons played the EXACT SAME GAME.

Spreading rumours in Nazi Germany got you the guillotine. Spreading the truth in Nazi Germany got you the guillotine (or a bullet). People like observer were tasked with telling normal germans that the lack of facts PROVED that speculation about Hitler's crimes was an OUTRAGE.

The closer we come to Blair's massive strike against Iran (and, sorry, the mass conscription that will follow shortly afterwards), the more people like observer will flood groups like these, at least up until the moment of the great shut-down, when we all end up envying China for its Internet freedom.

Logic? Don't make me laugh

09.10.2005 20:47

Okay Twilight, if I apply your logic I could claim ANYTHING and when asked for evidence it happened sit on my hands. If you can't produce evidence, then don't expect the majority of folk to believe you. And trust me, the majority don't.

Any Updates?

Has anyone heard anything more about this, or what "group" the police were referring to?

Or is this like Bush's empty allegations about the "al Qaeda plots" allegedly disrupted by his Regime, in an attempt to keep people's minds numbed to his crimes and indefensible policies/failures?

Mossad, Perhaps?

We're deeply grateful for your sterling work in discrediting the anti-war movement by making them appear to be socially-retarded paranoid fools. The check is in the post. Don't spend it all at once.

Why is it wrong to fight terrorism???

10.10.2005 08:55

And just why is it wrong to fight terrorism? Would you rather thousands of innocent people were killed and injured instead? The state has a duty to defend its citizens and that is what it is doing be fighting international terrorism! Oh and Al Qaeda the group they are fighting don't exactly share your libertarian views do they? So why are you so against a the war on terror?

Mossad, Perhaps?

It's good that we have got you here to point out that everyone else in the world is just a gullible drone. Without people like you most people wouldn't be able to see the wood for the trees.

Now could you tell us which designer we should be wearing for the winter season. Which 4X4 (SUV) is the best? What colour should I paint my lounge cream, magnolia or beige? Who should we vote for next election oh sage suthseer?

It is SOOOO nice having someone who can think here. I'm going to bake you a cake now just to say thank you!

British people guilty of racism

You all guilty of racism for not stopping it

"And just why is it wrong to fight terrorism?"

It isn't. The thing is, however, that nobody is fighting the Terrorists. They're just gainging up on and criminalizing those that are ...

"Would you rather thousands of innocent people were killed and injured instead?"

You mean like in Iraq and Afghanistan? Most certainly not.

"The state has a duty to defend its citizens"

Right, not commit deadly False Flags against them, and tell them a bunch of LIES, so that the poorest amongst them can be sent to do the evil bidding of the Neo-Fascists who have hijacked the state.

"Oh and Al Qaeda the group they are fighting"

The Iraqi Resistance is not "al Qaeda". Nor was their former ally, the Taliban, who offered to give up Tim Osman - sorry, Osama bin Laden. Osman was his CIA alias ...

"So why are you so against a the war on terror?"

I'm not. I support both the Iraqi Resistance, and the Palestinians.

I hope the Terrorists are impeached and sent to the Hague, as the Laws they've violated demand.

Why do you support Neo-Fascism?

So we're all guilty for not stopping it? Using that logic every muslim in this country is guilty for not stopping the London bombings. Why don't you all just go back to where you came from?

No, Not Really

First, you'd have to prove that the Conspiracy Theory about 7/7/21, dished out by the people who said "Saddam has WMD!!!" is true. So far, nobody seems able to do so.

Red Herring Anyhow


The Iraqi resistance kill Iraqi civilians! Wake up.

11.10.2005 08:58

Quote "why do you support neo fascism"

Since when have Bush and Blair enacted anti-Jewish laws, sent trade unionists and communists to concentration camps, declared that white people are the master race and strived for a white ayran only America and Europe?

The Iraqi resistance which you strongly support target and kill mostly Iraqi civilians sometimes queing for jobs or to be taken for a days work, or Iraqi police and security forces.

Look who the Iraqi resistance are fighting! They are fighting the new democratic government of Iraq and its citizens! Iraq is now a free democratic country with regular elections thanks to Britain and America. It is a damn sight more freer and properous than it ever was under Saddam Hussein's regime. Now oil revenues are spent on schools, hospitals, housing and infrastructure instead of vast palaces for an evil dictator!

With the only difference being that the muslims in Britain knew as much about the attack happening as the non muslims did. Whereas this is in your face happening every day and nothing is being done because no one cares.

The British state is the no1 terrorist organisation and danger to the people of Britain.

That fall off the wall must have done serious damage

You failed to respond on-point, as I do. Perhaps you can do so now, if you're at all interested in real debate, however, I won't hold my breath.

And if you do not understand what Fascism entails, then you should go read up on the subject.

The Tim Osman story seems to be single sourced and eminating from this place  http://orlingrabbe.com/homepage.html; note the pictures of naked teenage girls and other such stories as: Alien abduction and dream war technology; Young girls and puberty; Extraterrestrials used artificial global warming to trigger life form extinctions; Is carbon-based life giving way to silicon-based life?

I don't really care who I cite, so long as they serve my propaganda

Sorry for not responding sooner, I have to admit I really don't check my sources as thoroughly as I should. I am too busy trying to make IndyMedia look as stupid as possible to realise I am quoting people that think fucking underage girls is cool.
