'Dirty bomb' terror plot
===================
Undoubtedly the top story of the night is the alleged attempt by a
member of a British Muslim terror cell to try to buy a nuclear bomb from
the Russian mafia.
This of course fulfils just about every bad dream any security official
in an western state has ever managed to have. And of course the trial
at the Old Bailey still has to prove that it's true.
But they're alleging that one of seven defendants attempted to secure
nuclear isotopes to make a "dirty bomb". What's more, the prosecution
also set out evidence that the defendants had discussed targeting
night-clubs, and that one defendant had praised the Madrid bombing. The
defendants, of course, deny the charges and we've yet to hear from the
defence.
It is a massive case and one of the biggest in Britain since 9/11.
Lindsay Taylor is on it at 7.
Fuck Lindsay Taylor, I might take a wander down myself. Don't want to get sucked into another court case. Those benches are very uncomfortable.

yeah, I'm not up on dates facts and figures, if I need to know something I just try and wind the Republicans up enough to find things out for me, but I'm tempted to think the solution to the "War on Terr-r" might be a lot more basic than people are prepared to realise- and it just might involve everyone acting in their own interests too.
