U.K. Under Siege!

An SUV loaded with explosives was driven into Scotland’s busy Glasgow airport. No deaths have been reported though rumors persist of undisclosed injuries. A witness to the horror described one of the would be suicide bombers as “smoldering” as he was led away from the scene. Two people are under arrest for the incident which bears disturbing similarities to Friday’s car bombs.

CNN has live video of the burning car. Fox has extensive coverage and their website is reporting that the driver was “Asian” which is a well known British euphemism for Pakistani and Bangladeshi Muslims.

The Scotsman gives us a solid connection between the Glasgow bombing and the London car bombs:

It was reported last night that the first car, a metallic green Mercedes, was stolen in early June and was spotted first in Scotland and then in Birmingham in the two days before the bomb was defused in London.

Police say they are looking for an Iraqi who went on the run from a control order only 11 days before yesterday’s failed bombing attempts. The man, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, is part of a six-strong cell linked to al-Qaeda in Iraq.

He went missing on 18 June in north-west England, and his whereabouts are unknown.

The Scotsman understands that MI5 and counter-terrorism police consider him a suspect in the failed attacks. However, security sources insisted he was “one of many possibilities”.

Lionheart reacts. To his credit he’s been warning of attacks like this for months. His blog is worth a look to see what some Britons are feeling in the face of Islamic Imperialism on their shores.

Counterterrorism Blog has a great run down of the story.

UPDATE: Fox is reporting the SUV was rammed full speed into the building and was soaked in Gasoline. Steve Emerson is saying that because the vehicle was on fire prior to hitting the building, and because one of the passengers tried to fight off security who were trying to put the fire out, this was likely a suicide bombing.
