As the UK Government, and the Scottish Police, fail to live up to their responsibilities to prevent the use of UK airports to facilitate War Crimes in the Middle East, a team of Citizens Weapons Inspectors entered Prestwick Airport late on Saturday night to investigate reports of flights carrying bombs to Israel refuelling there.
Responding to reports that Atlas Air, known to have stopped at Prestwick recently en route from the USA to Israel with advanced bombs, and USAF planes were present the team entered Prestwick shortly after 11pm tonight. They have confirmed the presence of a USAF cargo plane and report one Atlas Air plane landing and another taking off. More Atlas Air planes are believed to be on the ground.
Later another Atlas Air landed. It was met by three fire engines with blue lights flashing which escorted it until it was stationary. It is believed therefore that this plane contained hazadous (explosive) cargo.
The four weapons inspectors were arrested shortly after 1am and are currently in police custody. They are expected to be held until court on Tuesday due to the bank holiday
