A gang of British Muslims planned to blow up seven planes within hours in the biggest terrorist atrocity since 9/11, a court heard yesterday.

Two thousand passengers would have died in the plot by eight fanatics working "in the name of Islam", the jury was told.

It could have involved up to 18 suicide bombers. And they were almost ready to strike.

The jets they targeted would all have been bound from Heathrow to cities in the U.S. and Canada, it was claimed.

Makes sense, because being “British” is their defining quality. We all know that “real” muslims would never kill anyone. They’re as peaceful as tibetan monks! Anyone who says otherwise must die.

What would be the headline if a group of fanatical Christians plotted to kill thousands of Muslims?

So that’s why we can’t bring more than 3 oz. of liquid through security.

“Not a single one named Nigel.”
“Where’s my Nigel?” (very obscure reference!)

Too bad there’s no more capital punishment in Great Britain... if indeed they are guilty.

I can't find "Where's my Nigel?" but I did find an incredibly stupid description of Not my Nigel on an incredibly stupid site. (Be prepared to barf.)

Yep, and if you love the new requirements put in place by TSA as a result of this, please do be sure to thank a Muslim.

These people think they’re going to Allah when they die.

I’d rather they spent the rest of their miserable lives in solitary being kept alive for as long as possible....

What, and give the a martyr’s death?

Personally I prefer the old Byzantine approach: blinding. It renders them fairly harmless, denys them martyrdom, makes them a burden on their community, and gives them a chance to repent if God choses to soften their hearts.

A people who could never invent and build a jet engine, or a skyscraper.

Infidel lies! I myself have seen 5-storey buildings built of mud brick in Yemen. If Allah the All-Wise wanted the faithful to go higher, He would have said so through His Prophet Muhammed, May Peace Be Upon Him.

What's more, my ignorant dhimmi friend, the jet engine was invented in Arab lands. By feeding one's camel enough dates, a powerful jet exhaust often propels one across the desert on Haj to Mecca and Medina. And what exactly, infidel dog, does your perverted Western science think propelled Muhamed's (MPBUH) horse on The Prophet's miraculous journeys.
Clue: it was not a Yanmar... it was a date-jet. To deny these fundamental truths of the ROP, o non-believer ... is to suffer a fartwah ... as proclaimed by my imam. ... it means you and other infidel slaves will stand behind my camel for all eternity in Paradise.

Your infidel heart is so hardened that even if you were to submit to the Divine Will of Allah and don the Semtex Vest of Holy Martyrdom, you might only get 30-40 really ugly non-virgins, instead of the true Muslim's share of 72 actual Brittany Spears-type virgins, as promised by Muhammed, May Peace Be Upon Him.
