Five Doctors Held Over Attacks (so far)
2007-07-03
Five doctors are now being held in connection with the recent attempted terror attacks - one is an Iraqi doctor who trained in Baghdad. Sky sources named him as Iraqi Bilal Abdulla. He was left relatively unscathed in an attack on Glasgow airport, in which two men drove a flaming jeep into the airport terminal. Two doctors were arrested in Paisley, Glasgow, another in Liverpool and one on the M6 on Saturday night.

Abdulla was pictured being led away from the explosion by police and worked at the Royal Alexandra Hospital near Glasgow. The other man detained at Glasgow airport had severe burns and remains in a critical condition at the Royal Alexandra.
Reports are burns over 90% of his body, not expected to live.
I'll drop off some nice salt scrub the docs can use for his debridement...it's got lemon in it so he'll smell April fresh.
Police used two controlled explosions to detonate two suspect cars outside the hospital.
The second detonation is a new piece of info, IIRC
Eight people are now being held by police in connection with the attempted bombing in Scotland and two car bombs found in London's West End. They were arrested at locations throughout the UK.

Police have been given another five days to question the two men arrested at Glasgow airport and until Saturday to quiz three people held at Paddington Green police station in west London.

One of those, Dr Mohammed Asha, 26, was arrested on the M6 on Saturday night. The Jordanian was detained with a woman of 27 dressed in traditional Muslim dress, believed to be his wife, on the M6 near Sandbach in Cheshire. He gained his medical qualifications in Jordan in 2004 and came to Britain the following year. He was seen wearing a stethoscope at his rented home in the village of Houston, near Glasgow Airport, a letting agent said.
Reports are his family is Palestinian.
That's the first thing I thought of when it was reported he was 'Jordanian'.
His father appeared on Jordanian TV on Monday claiming his son was innocent.
"He's a good boy."
Prayed regularly, rolled his eyes, made faces, beat his sisters, had gun sex, yep, a good boy through and through ...
Sources told Sky News that a third man, aged 26, arrested in Liverpool, was also a doctor. He was reported to have worked at Halton Hospital in Cheshire.

The UK remains on a "critical" state of terror alert - the highest possible - after police linked the three failed bombings. Home Secretary Jacqui Smith has refused to comment on reports the suspects were members of a foreign terror cell.

#13  Lucky thing they wanted boom, instead of just using their medical positions to kill some infidels.

Already happened here: Harrowing testimony heard at Dr JavedÂ’s trial

[Friday, October 07, 2005] The jury at the trial of Punjab Health Minister Dr Tahir Ali Javed and his head nurse for medical negligence and malpractice took a break on Thursday after a dozen witnesses for the respondents had submitted their, at times, harrowing testimony about the havoc brought to the lives of those who got infected by hepatitis C at the Pakistani-American doctorÂ’s Fremont Cancer Centre three years ago. Of the nearly 100 patients affected by hepatitis C at Dr JavedÂ’s clinic, out of court settlements have been made by his lawyers with 82 of them.

Nebraska state Attorney General Jon Bruning said on Monday that Dr Javed would likely never be brought to justice. He said the likelihood of his head nurse getting her licence back is slim. “This was a nurse, after all, who was reusing syringes,” Bruning said. Nurse Prochaska has said that’s what she was told to do by Dr Javed. Bruning said there’s not much that can be done to discipline Dr Javed as long as he stays in Pakistan. “I don’t want to give these families false hope that the Pakistani government is going to allow the state of Nebraska to extradite Dr Javed,” Bruning said, adding that it’s terrible so many people contracted the virus, but he’s glad the people at the centre have been stopped. “I’m glad she’s no longer a licensed practitioner and that the doctor is no longer a health care provider in this state,” Bruning said. One of the patients who contracted hepatitis C at the cancer clinic has since died from liver complications.

#12  rjs has a good point

The British system has driven native Brits out. The national health system has to get them from somewhere so they import them.

A lot of British doctors have emigrated to the US as well as english speaking doctors from India, Egypt, South Africa and elsewhere. It takes them a while to get established and because of that we have a fair amount of foreign MDs doing such jobs as EMT, X ray tech, medical coding and the like.

#11  If Muslim doctor says "If I have to fill out one more insurance form, I think I'll explode", you better take him seriously.

#9  Think Michael Moore will update his new movie regarding the British healthcare system? For all of the issues in the US healthcare system you never hear of American doctors trying to blow up people.

#8   One of the articles: "up to 12 members of Al Qaeda were sent to work" in the UK's National Health Service. Probably a lot more.

#7  This has given new meaning to the stalin orchestrated, "the Doctor's Plot." Russia's Georgian man of steel, limp-wristed josip, had a run in with his Tbilisi tovarish that prevented this plot from unfolding into a full-fledged Vyshinsky-type showtrial, followed by a genocidal elimination of Soviet jewry.

Perhaps the brits could improve on the original and use this plot as a way to deport the worthless trash congregating around the Finsbury mosque. This death cult needs to be preferrably shot, but at least deported.

#4  People tend to forget that both Mengele and Che Guevara were trained as doctors as well. Two psychotic butchers, with proper educations.
