You may not have heard but over the weekend some wannabe terrorerrorists tried to drive a Jeep into Glasgow Airport…..
…hell, who am I kidding? You will not only have heard but you will have had it seared into your brain by the unending newsgasm perpetrated by the media at large.
These Terror Clowns only managed to get one of three vehicles to actually catch light using their combination effort of petrol and camping gas. The media made a big play of the fact that the cars were ‘packed with nails’ well, guess-what? Which ever way you touched these cars off, you could be sure the nails would still be in the car afterwards.
Once again El Reg has a great write up on the Clowns of Ph3ar by Lewis Page, a former MoD bomb disposal operator.
I particularly liked this quote:
Remember, this country carried on successfully for six years with hundreds - thousands, sometimes - of tons of explosives raining down on it every night for six years, delivered by very competent Germans who often died doing that job. The civilian death toll was around 60,000 according to most sources; the equivalent of 20 9/11s, more than three for every year of the war. Civilisation was not brought down. Germany and Japan withstood even greater violence, and survived it too.
Yet the modern press are such wet-weekends that is almost as though we’re no longer allowed to retain our Balls of British Steel(tm)
