Tossing political correctness...

Out the window... unlike some Ontario Provincial Police forces I could name...
Detectives investigating the failed car bombings at Glasgow airport and in London have arrested two more people, taking the total number held to seven.

It has also emerged that police may have been trying to trace the airport bomb suspects before Saturday's attack.
See Commissioner Fantino... if someone threatens armed insurrection, this is how the state should respond... quickly, decisively and with overwhelming numerical superiority.

There is one surprise so far, among the suspects arrested in the U.K. He's an educated professional, not some raggedy-ass fundamentalist who, presumably because his god told him to... just threw his family's future under the bus.
Dr Mohammed Asha, 26, who worked as a junior doctor at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital and the Princess Royal Hospital in Telford, and a 27-year-old woman believed to be his wife, were both arrested on the M6 in Cheshire on Saturday night.
Let's hope they bag the rest of these fanatics soon.

UPDATE: It's not exactly brain surgery...

Terrorism, I mean.
The father of one of the men arrested over the failed bomb attacks in London and Glasgow has protested his son's innocence. Abdul Qader Asha said Dr Mohammed Asha did not have "any links" to terrorism.

The 26-year-old suspect lives in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, and specialises in neurosurgery.

"It was the first time I felt happy for being identified as what we are - not terrorists, but as an insurgency, people trying to overthrow this government."
