'Doctors terror gang' trapped by mobile phones

Poverty Doesn't Cause Terror Update: More on the two arrested doctors and their jihad gang. From the Daily Mail, with thanks to all who sent this in:

A suspected terror gang, at least two of whom are doctors, were being questioned today after being trapped by their mobile phones.

Anti-terrorist detectives swooped on five members of the gang across Britain after gathering crucial clues from phones found in the two London car bombs.

The phones were meant to trigger a blast when they were called. The bombers twice called the car outside the Tiger Tiger nightclub in Haymarket, and the one in Cockspur Street four times, but the bombs failed to detonate for technical reasons.

Traces on the mobile phones' calls led police to addresses in Liverpool, Staffordshire and Glasgow.

Today the suspected members of the al Qaeda terror cell, which arrived in the country a year ago, were being questioned about the plot to launch simultaneous car bomb attacks on London which would have led to the deaths of hundreds of people. Detectives were trying to establish their exact identities.

Police said the links between the London attacks and that in Glasgow, where two men tried to smash a blazing vehicle into the city's airport on Saturday afternoon, were "becoming ever clearer".

One of the Glasgow attackers is believed to be a doctor, possibly an Iraqi. One suffered 90 per cent burns and was too ill to be questioned.

The suspected ringleader of the plot is also a doctor, a Jordanian. Neurologist Dr Mohammed Asha, 26, and his burka-wearing wife, 27, were held in a dramatic operation as they drove on the M6 in Cheshire with their two-year-old son on Saturday.

A fifth suspect - arrested at Lime Street station in Liverpool - was taken to London's Paddington Green police station to be questioned, along with Dr Asha and his wife.

Police are believed to have been alerted to Dr Asha's car after his number plate flashed up on an automatic number plate recognition camera.

"becoming ever clearer". when you connet the dots, its islam stupid!

The next time my cell phone acts up I will say a little prayer of thanks instead of complaining about it.

This Doctor of Death was an Iraqi refugee!

Was this a casualty of our "War Against Terror"?

I thought we were fighting al-Queda in Iraq so that al-Queda won't follow us here

"burka-wearing wife" speaks volumes.

Britain, what is it you don't understand about getting the Muslims OUT of your country or eventually you'll be destroyed?

"A suspected terror gang, at least two of whom are doctors, were being questioned today after being trapped by their mobile phones. "

British interrogator in Muslim suspect's face:

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?!

Has Blair been listening too much to bush?

"Can't find any English doctors because their too damned stupid to be doctors; too expensive to be doctors; don't want to work as doctors; so there is NO ALTERNATIVE but to import doctors from Iran or Pakistan."

Using bushs' logic will not only distroy your country as it is happening in the US; but will get you killed.

Suggestion: don't take bush's advice; he may have been a member of "skull and bones," but it's not the same as thing as Mensa.

Doctor Mengele...Report to the burn unit STAT. Dr. Mengele...

A Jordanian and an Iraqi.

Two of our "allies" in the war on terror?

We sure know how to pick 'em!!

great observation.

I'm not registered but if you are you can check out the Washington Post. It has a story all about how this "besieged" president is seeking the advice of intellectuals on how to restore his presidency.

The jury is still out on whether he is unbelievably steadfast or just plain stupid.

Intellectuals -bwha-hah-ha-ha-ha!

Can somebody explain why we're *advertising* the means by which we captured them? Sure, any smart terrorist knows not to use cell phones, but there's no need to remind them of the fact.

lets feed these human detritus to hungry wild boars rollicking around in their pig stys to provide them a good send-off to their maker
