Hero Cop May Have Saved Scores Of Lives [UK TERROR PLOT!!]

Sky News ^

[Enchante]

Sky News sources say one of the first police officers on the scene of the London West End car bomb may have saved dozens of lives by diffusing the explosives before the bomb squad arrived. It is believed the quick-thinking cop recognised that the car was wired to blow up, jumped in and disconnected the trigger device, thought to be a mobile phone. This backs up an eye-witness account of a police officer briefly entering the metallic green Mercedes before running for cover.

People are being warned to stay vigilant after the discovery of the "massive" car bomb, which could have killed hundreds of nightclub revellers.

The device, which contained 60 litres of petrol, a large amount of nails and several gas canisters, was found in the Mercedes early this morning.

It is nice to know there are still people in this world willing to risk it all for their fellow citizens!

Search every Mennonite meeting house, every Buddhist temple.

And Lutherians. Those are wild people.

He sounds like the English version of Bruce Willis’ John McCane (yippe ki yea).

“Good job. Buy that officer a beer.”

And a pair of clean underwear.

absolutely - and if my memory serves me right, the cops there (Bobbies) don’t even carry firearms

>>It is now a duty upon all the rest of us to help the police so that they can bring whoever was involved in this plot swiftly to justice”.<<

I left off the name because this sounds exactly like the statements Clinton made after every terror attack that he ignored. In other words, @#$Q@ you!

All right; I’ll play Devil’s Advocate:

What if the trunk (boot) had the tools and nails of a roofer, a normal 15gal gas tank, and a cellphone on a charger?

Guess I’ve driven a bomb too! [/sarc]

Good job, Copper.

Solid brass too.

Probably goes through a pint of polish a week.

"What's all this, then?"

[FatherofFive]

The Muslim Council of Britain, the largest organization representing Muslim groups in the UK, urged people to help the police find the perpetrators.

"We're shocked - shocked - to think that Muslims could be involved. The perpetrators must be found and punished for so completely messing up this demonstration of peace!"

What did the Bobbie say to the three-headed man?

[Gideon T. Reader]

Good Lord, Doucheingham,
Do you believe all this flap?
Islamic Terrorists? Nonsense old man. Nonsense!
Know the fuzzy wuzzies well. Served with them all over the empire.
Decent chaps, one and all. Still they don't tipple, eh what? And that man/goat business. Not my cuppa, is it then? This silly Car bomb thing,....Probably an act of charity from one of those Islamic charities the Yanks are going on about all the time.
Never cared much for them, those Yanks. Pushy, Smile a lot. Good teeth and all, I s'pose. Oil rich Wog chappie probably left a Mercedes as charity transport for some poor bloke who cant afford a motor of his own. Decent, if you ask me. Left fuel canisters for the cold spell this winter. New fangled cell phone was probably lost by some teenager who are always nattering to each other, and this Arab chappie found it and thought the bloke getting ther new motor would not mind dropping it off at the teens manor.
Hrumph. Just like a Yank to confuse things.
I SAY,...............What was THAT? Sounds like one of those BIG bah-stards that used to go off during the troubles in Cyprus.
Hmmmm. No couldn't be. This is London after all. Oh Boy,...could we have a refill here? Same again?

[Beckwith]

They just had the British Police spokesman on — Deputy Commissioner — guess what — the dude's name is Tariq Azar (sp) — he’s a Muslim.

[edsheppa]

how will Olbermann report this event?

Bush's fault. If Gore were president, it would never have happened because then the terrorists would love us.

I give. What DID the Bobbie say to the three-headed man?

[Peelod]

I give. What DID the Bobbie say to the three-headed man?

'ello, 'ello, 'ello.

[cmiller623]
