CNN posted the following article this morning (07-20-2007). I wonder when that will leave us alone!!!


LONDON, England (CNN) -- British authorities arrested two men on terror charges following a search in southwestern England this week, according to a statement released Friday by Avon and Somerset Police.
Police discovered a substance at a Bristol address that led them to believe there may be a potential link to terrorist activity. The search was initiated after an Afghan man was arrested late Wednesday on drug-related charges.
The discovery led to him being arrested under the Terrorist Act 2006.
The investigation led to the arrest of a second, although no additional details were given by police.
"This investigation is in its very early stages and we hope to clarify the situation at the earliest possible opportunity," said Assistant Chief Constable Steve Mortimore.
"Our message to the public for some time now has been that while we don't want people to be unduly afraid, everyone should be aware of the potential risks and be vigilant."
The arrests follow the failed car bombings in central London and at Glasgow Airport last month.

What is the Muslim view on drugs?

Afghan Muslims grow lots so I don't know the answer.

Drugs are equated to alcohol as well as other haram (prohibited) items. It is unfortunate that some "Muslims" get involved in such illegal matters; however, it does not reflect the Faith position on this items.

Witch-hunt? I hope it continues as long as there are Witches.
