Britain's Secret War on Terror that Never Ends
(Scotsman-UK) Dan McDougall - Since 9/11, 556 arrests have been made, documents and videos promoting extremist causes have been found in cities from London to Edinburgh, and fundraising for extremist causes has been uncovered in many of the 90 cases expected to go to court. Phones are being tapped, e-mails monitored, and Internet sites scanned for coded messages, and the government is backing these efforts with the required financial impetus. Documents seized from Islamic militants arrested in Spain included a sketch-map of Europe drawn by an Algerian militant marking a projected itinerary through Germany and Ireland to London where, he wrote, he hoped to commit an act of "martyrdom."
