UPDATED AND BUMPED: UK Raises Alert to "Attack is Imminent"... Orig Post: Terrorists "from Indian Subcontinent" attempt to bomb Glasgow Airport

It appears that our Islamist jihadist friends have not given up in their quest to kill as many people as possible. Look for Keith Olberman to deny this one too... (how the thirteen people who actually tune in MSNBC can watch that guy is beyond me...)

UPDATE: Fox is also all over this now, and they are saying that there are Terror warnings all across the UK and also that Airport security is being beefed up here in the US. Terror warnings all across England, armed guards at airports.

So far that is 3 vehicle-borne IEDs in 2 days now. And the Fourth of July holiday here and the anniversary of the 7/7 London bombings there, this could be a bumpy week.

UPDATE: Sky News says this is being treated as a "terrorist attack". "Indian Subcontinent" = Pakistan??

UPDATE: FBI, DHS warn local authorities in US to be on heightened alert for "suspicious vehicles." UK shuts down Blackpool airport. Hospital where terror suspect taken evacuated. Security "re-evaluated" at Wimbledon. London Times story here. Glasgow Evening Times story here. Report on Fox News: one of suspects held Molotov cocktail, screaming the name of Allah.

UPDATE (2:30 CDT) UK Raises its alert level to "Attack is Imminent"

UPDATED (2:33 CDT) ex-NBC anchor Marvin Kalb says on Fox that implication of today's attack illustrates that War on Terror is "Global" and not just restricted to Iraq. "We are dealing with a Wider War with Radical Islam."

Welcome to the Party, Marv.

UPDATED (7:25 CDT) Lots more updates from Allahpundit:
