(Jewish News-UK) Israel Police spokesperson Micky Rosenfeld - Manchester was a planned terror attack. It wasn't sporadic; it was something much more sophisticated. You need to know, and know quickly, how he got hold of the explosive device. The British intelligence services need to use technology to pick up on all relevant individuals, even those who were not active but who may have known about it, and/or know what's being planned. You have to react and respond quickly, and use the intelligence you get immediately. In terms of the suspects, they're probably lying low, maybe moving around. They will realize that they're now on the counter-terrorism radar. Deal with public awareness. People need to know that there are threats and that those threats are realistic. There's obviously a reason why the threat level has been raised. More support lines could be opened, as in Israel, where we receive hundreds of calls a day, alerting us to anything suspicious.
