Leo Blair 'kidnap plot' - arrests/executions soon?
... The more one read, the clearer it became that it was not quite what was advertised in gigantic print on the tin: "World Exclusive. Plot to kidnap Leo Blair. Cops foil Fathers 4 Justice extremists." We were told that no details had been disclosed of how anyone intended to snatch the child. A "security source" was quoted as saying: "Fortunately, we think this has been nipped in the bud at an early stage. There have been no arrests, although inquiries are continuing. It was good intelligence work."
...Now hold it right there. If "Special Branch cops" really had "smashed" a genuine plot to do something as evil as kidnapping the Prime Minister's son, then why had they made no arrests? And what were they doing blathering about it to the Sun, when all stories about the security of the Prime Minister and his family are rightly blanketed in official secrecy? Read more
db: The telegraph makes some good points but it must be said that the cops could have gone much further and alleged that al-Qaeda had infiltrated Fathers 4 Justice - hence we are grateful for their restraint.
Is it possible that the guy who suggested that F4J 'kidnap' little Blair was in reality a security services 'agent provocateur' seeking to bring down the organisation? Surely not.
