(London) Terror suspects protest innocence
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/5045104.stm

The two brothers accused of being involved in a terrorist chemical plot have protested their innocence, according to their solicitors.

It was also claimed that Mohammed Abdul Kahar, 23, was shot without warning in Friday's raid at Forest Gate, London.

He is in hospital under armed guard. His brother, Abul Koyair, is being held at Paddington Green police station.

Security sources told the BBC they had had intelligence there was a "viable" chemical device in the house.

Intelligence had suggested it was a potentially fatal device that could produce casualty figures in double or even triple figures.

2. I said in the beginning this was a very "fishy" story.
US and allies have to come up with something to the fear factor up and to keep people from focusing on the lies and deceit that led to the phony "war on terrorism."

3. yes, you have to view everything
They do and say with skepticism and suspicion. I don’t believe a damn word that comes out of either administration.

5. Sure enough! The Telegraph is warning of a 1200 terrorist army ..
.. waiting in Britain's suburbs to destroy everyone.

Ethical considerations prevent me from linking to The Telegraph ...

The Observer

A young Muslim man shot by police on suspicion of involvement in a terrorist chemical plot last night protested his innocence and alleged that police failed to give warning before opening fire.

Solicitors for Mohammed Abdul Kahar and his brother Abul Koyair, who was also seized in a dawn raid on Friday involving 250 police officers, said they denied any wrongdoing.

A family who live next door to the brothers alleged that they were also arrested and assaulted, leaving one man with a head injury and needing hospital treatment. They are considering legal action against the police. <edit: indicate snip here>
