Three Guilty In Transatlantic
Airline Bombing Plot

From BBC:

    Three men have been found guilty of a massive terrorist conspiracy to murder involving home-made bombs.

    Abdulla Ahmed Ali, Assad Sarwar and Tanvir Hussain's convictions follow a huge terrorism inquiry, which led to sweeping airport restrictions.

    The three, and a further five men, were not convicted on charges of plotting to bomb transatlantic airliners.

    Seven men admitted plotting to cause a public nuisance. An eighth man was cleared at Woolwich Crown Court.

It's not a lengthy story, but more than I can edit down for here. Make sure you read it.

Who cares? It's the Brits. They're laws are screwed up, their courts are screwed up, and their government is a big joke.
 
Oh, Nick, there were people from the U.S. returning home on those 5-7 flights. Are you so ill-informed of current events?
