Incident at Glasgow

Although it hasn't been officially designated as such, a terrorist incident has taken place at Glasgow Airport, with a gas-laden car being crashed into the airport's front door.

It's still not clear whether there is any connection to yesterday's thwarted car bomb attacks. It is, however, worth noting that it's a weekend when world news does focus to some degree on Great Britain, given the memorial concert for Diana and the recent installation of Gordon Brown as prime minister.

Above all, it's a useful reminder that there are people out there who want to destroy the freedom of the western world -- not because of Iraq, but because of religious bigotry and hatred.
