UK terrorist raids
Reposted from a friend's LJ for you to see. Seems in the UK they are really getting alert to the real threats of the Islamic sub-culture despite the liberal mantra of "Diversity is good. We cannot question their beliefs..."

Terror police swoop on restaurant,
The raids were carried out at several locations, including The Bridge to China Town restaurant.
Armed police have arrested 14 men following anti-terror raids in London, including 12 arrests at a restaurant in the Borough area.
"An Islamic school near Tunbridge Wells has also been searched as part of the same operation.
The Jameah Islameah property, on Catt's Hill near Crowborough, East Sussex, is an Islamic teaching facility for boys aged between 11 and 16.
According to its website the 54-acre premises also encourages Islamic groups to "appoint a person from your centre who wishes to serve the community and send them to us to be trained".
It also says these individuals will then become "qualified enough to teach in local Masajeds and Madares".
At the time of its last inspection the school only had nine pupils. "
"The BBC's security correspondent, Gordon Corera, said the arrests were linked to allegations of "training camps" within the UK for people who want to engage in terrorist acts.
"This involves people suspected of facilitating training activity within the UK which might have allowed others to take part in terrorist activity," he said.

"Here in the UK it's more forms of bonding and getting groups together as well as radicalising those taking part. It's not necessarily military or terrorist training or blowing things up, it's more training in the sense of groups bonding and working together". "
