MI5 Warns of Al-Qaida Suicide Bombers Using Ambulances Filled With Explosives

This is not really a new threat, as it was considered a possibility for sometime that this could happen.

What is new however is that it was recently uncovered by MI5 during an investigation that Al-Qaida was using the website auctioneer eBay to make purchases of emergency vehicles such as Ambulances, with the intent of using them as IED's (Improvised Explosive Devices) within the United Kingdom.

Even more disturbing it seems that eBay, who was asked by Counter-terrorism officials in the U.K., to stop selling emergency service vehicles, equipment and uniforms. However, eBay refused saying it would only do so if a new law is passed.

Assistant chief constable Steve Watts of Hampshire police is chairing a national security committee which is drawing up plans to tackle the terrorist threat. He said: “What concerns me is the lack of legislation available for the police service to adequately address the threat of pseudo-emergency service vehicles used in such an environment.”

Carlile said: “As independent reviewer of terrorism legislation, I take this issue very seriously. In my view, as a general rule, all emergency service vehicles should be clearly decommissioned so they cannot be used to imitate emergency services.”

Jihad In America - The Perfect Day

I was going to work a bit more on this story before posting it to the site however, in light of the recent news release yesterday of the activation of hezbollah sleeper cells I thought it important to post it today. To read our related story go to Hezbollah Sleeper Cells and also The Threat of Homegrown terrorism.

Ironically today is the first day of summer and most schools are now closed for the summer vacation, but hopefully it will make people aware and give them some time to plan as to what they would do if such an event were to take place.

I would also like to take the time to say I reached out to Glenn Beck who had this on his new broadcast for permission to use these videos in the story however, I have as yet not received a reply nor do I really expect to get one. I do however feel it is extremely important to have this information readily available for people to see which is why I placed this all here.

Full credit should go to Glenn Beck and CNN.
