h/t Allah at HotAir for this one:

Again, from the AP:

Police have arrested 14 men following anti-terror raids in south and east London.

The men were arrested late on Friday night and in the early hours of Saturday on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.

Searches are being carried out at homes in south, east and north London, Scotland Yard said.

The suspects are in custody at a central London police station.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “Officers from the Metropolitan Police’s Anti-Terrorist

Branch have arrested 14 men under the Terrorism Act 2000 in a pre-planned, intelligence-led operation.

“The arrests in south and east London follow many months of surveillance and investigation in a joint operation involving the Anti-Terrorist Branch, Special Branch and the Security Service.”

The spokesman added that the arrests were not linked to the recent alleged plot to blow up transatlantic airliners or the July 7 bombings in London.

The BBC reported that one of the raids took place at a restaurant in Borough Road, south London, close to South Bank University.

Up to 40 officers in riot gear entered the premises which was packed with diners, the report said. A number of arrests were made at the restaurant which was part of the Bridge Hotel, the BBC added.

A spokeswoman for Home Secretary John Reid said he had been “kept fully informed of the developments about the counter-terror operation”.

Keep monitoring Allah for the updates – he’s on it like white on rice! Oh, shit! Was that racist? Politically incorrect? Who gives a damn right now….

The time for PC is done, gone, over, fini, complete, irrelevent, useless, stupid, negatable, and more significantly – dangerous.
