he looks and smells like a terrorist. I would say there is more to this than meets the eye, ex soldier, he could easily have some mental health issues, who knows. Sounds like the Uk is a better place with him locked away

Not on the front page of every paper or plastered on every news channel.

That is the double standards, as if the word muslim was involved every man and his dog would have known about this, do you disagree with this Dunk?

You have a point, with BNP connections - i am suprised this is not all over the tabloids.

Double standards, it may just be the red tops slow to get off of the mark?

You'd be suprised the amount of right-wing extremists the CT Police are keeping their eye on, there's many more than the press would have you believe. This particular bloke had enough ordnance to do some serious damage, certainly more than any supposed Al Qaeda suspect that's been lifted in the past couple of years anyway. Unfortunately the press pick and choose which cases to concentrate on, and which stories to use the 't' word in.

The former soldier told detectives that he had "a fascination with things that go bang", the Old Bailey heard.

There is, if its the story that I think (I havent opened the link). Ex-soldier who lives with his mother, with an obsession for firearms and explosives? Even the police said that he didnt intend to actually do anything with the contraband material and weapons that he had. Some he had hoarded and some he had manufactured himself.

His membership of the BNP was brief and not deemed to be of relevance due to the point made above. When even the prosecution state that they dont believe that you intend to actually use the weapons, then youre sentenced for the possession alone...

He wasnt right, but thats a world away from being 'wrong'; as you suggest.

Like all extremists this chap was mentally disturbed. I personally don't feel he or this story was reported in a skewed manner. He was caught and banged up job done. Let's hope there aren't too many more of his ilk from any background.

Just like everytime they catch a pakistani with bomb making equipment in his room their labeled a 'religious fanatic', unlike english Mr. BNP who's labeled a 'racist'.

I think these pakistanis that want to blow up non muslims are just as racist as these BNP members, only one uses their religion as an excuse and the other their country.

Talk of the BNP here isnt relevant, is it? This man was a mentalist who lived with his mother and hoarded explosives and weapons. He didnt intend to cut a swathe through Manningham Lane (much to the disappointment of the Bradford Development & Planning Committee!) and there was no stated connection between the contraband materia/items and his brief membership of the BNP.

Assuming that the facts Im aware of are indeed correct then I think that this is a pointless rant about a none-event.

If Im wrong; then I believe that he had enough explosive to do millions of pounds worth of improvements to Bradford!

Are you retarded or something? Pakistani is not a religion it is a race, Islam is a religion and a muslim is one who follows Islam
