Wonder if those 'gas canisters' will turn out to contain CO2...

I agree, either with or without the letter "W"

Big picture in the paper of police pinning down the man burn in the attack - looks like pretty horrific burns. Deserves nothing less of course, nice to see him getting a taste of his own medicine.

on local news they had a young guy talking about, how he saw one of the "bombers" attacking the police and he said I thought to myself "Im no having that" and ran to help with a few others passer bys, "we all got the boot in til he fell to the ground". lol. then to add insult to injury they take him to hospital in paisley on a saturday night - omg bet that alone makes him change his mind about bombing ideas

Alternatively, put the flames out with a baseball bat...

Bit tricky, extracting details of a terror network from a corpse ........

Not to mention that "martyrdom" will inspire other fanatics much more than a life sentence.

DISCLAIMER: I've been away for the weekend, arrived home late yesterday to news reports about this incident.

I'm sorry guys, but where's the proof that they intentionally set their car on fire & drove it into the airport?

A Jeep Cherokee is an expensive car to use as a weapon - unless it was stolen (no evidence to support this theory).

It had two Asian men in it, does this mean all Asians are automatically terrorists?

Two cars were found with explosives in London, and this in Glasgow was just a knee jerk reaction.

One witness to the events in Glasgow describes it as "I saw a Jeep Cherokee apparently as if it was trying to get right through the doors into the terminal building." Then they saw flames from under the car. Could it not be an automatic transmission with a stuck throttle? The flames are a little hard to explain I admit, but that could be innocent too. But doesn't it strike anyone as odd that there would be a fire UNDER the car, rather than in it? Did someone open the door, lean out & light a match?

A civillian helped police hold one of the occupants of the car to the floor - this occupant was burnt quite severely. I sincerely hope for both the civillian and the police that the suspiscion was right. Pinning down an innocent, injured man would be a terrible thing to do!

"It looked like they had molotov cocktails with them." ... does that person know what a molotov cocktail looks like? Could of been anything. Molotov cocktails result in quite a hell of a lot of fire, more than I suspect was involved here. Apparently it took "minutes" for the fire to take hold, even when using "molotov cocktails." IMO, they weren't molotov cocktails (anyone at the AR that saw the BBQ will of seen how quickly flames can go up).

I'm sorry, but EVERYTHING I have seen so far is merely circumstantial, and as such, wouldn't stand up in court.

I've also just heard that Police were trying to trace the "suspects" just before the incident at Glasgow airport. If this was the case, then why was Glasgow airport not put on lock down (like London was). If they thought there was a risk of innocent life being lost, why not lock the place down? Or is this just a claim to say "we knew they were terrorists, we just didn't know where they were." When in fact, if this is a terrorist event, it's caught everyone on the back foot?

Someone before commented about sensationalist media.
