Four men arrested for allegedly plotting a terror attack to kill Queen Elizabeth
Gosh. I wonder if it's those pesky Irish Catholics again?
Scotland Yard were remaining tight lipped yesterday but confirmed it was an alleged Islamist plot to be carried out on British soil and was part of “an ongoing investigation into Islamist-related terrorismâ€.
Oh! I did not see that one coming!

1. Notice the source for the queen as the target is The Sun, Murdoch's rag Who have been known to make things up. Just occasionally. On the other hand, their now-defunct sister paper The News Of the World bribed public officials to leak information, so it's quite believable that they broke the law again and paid someone to leak this to them, too. Anyway, the non-Murdoch press doesn't think the queen was the target.

3. For goodness sake, she's 88 years old. Why plot to kill her?
Bonny Prince Charlie has been rather chummy with the Islamists..

28. I Somehow Doubt that terrorists care much about the everyday Muslims living in England. Unfortunately, you are correct, though.

22. It's really none of our business. We are Americans and it has nothing to do with us. My in-laws are British and they seem to like them, mostly. Except Prince Phillip. He is not well-liked.

13. My crap detector went red line with "Islamist" and knife attack. Ordinarily, political/religious terrorism isn't personal. Those creatures go for the maximum amount of destruction to the maximum number of people
You people have obviously not been paying attention to what Islam has been doing lately.

16. More of the same
I give this report 0% credibility.
A knife attack? Zealots are zealots, but nobody is that anxious to score 72 virgins.
I'm pretty sure the rules stipulate there has to be some chance for success for it to be a bona fide martyrdom.
You have no clue.

26. Islamist plot ??? no way....Islam is a religion of peace.
He isn't being sarcastic.

27. Doesn't pass the smell test. Who would even want to assassinate her? I mean, really? Why? There would be no reason for it. She doesn't decide policy. She is just a figurehead. I doubt very seriously she was the target. They might have been planning an attack, but her as the target? Come on!
This is why you people should be allowed to be in charge of anything.

They misunderstand islam. It's the religion of piece. They want a piece of every country's action, until they have enough to establish their caliphate.

Yeah, it's not like those everyday Mudslimes aren't leaving the countries they're in to go wage jihad and then coming back to continue trying to kill westerners.

You're right. Islamists aren't symbolic? Remember when they didn't target the World Trade Center Towers?
Oh wait.. they did. Dumb ass.

There is no such thing as an "everyday Muslim".
If a muzzie isn't a terrorist killer, then he supports the terrorist killers.

And the day after this is what she was doing

Note that she's out in the open air - Her Majesty has more balls than the whole of the DUmp put together.
