Three British men guilty of airline bomb plot

A little justice , What are the Odds these guys get a light sentence ?
It is just a shame they could not come up with convictions for the others involved !
Now they can run the streets of England , free to plot another attack !

LONDON (Reuters) - Three Britons were found guilty on Monday of plotting to kill thousands by blowing up transatlantic airliners bound for North America in mid-flight suicide attacks using bombs made from liquid explosives.

The suspected al Qaeda plot, just days from being put into operation according to British detectives, had huge worldwide ramifications leading to tight restrictions on the amount of liquids passengers could take on board aircraft.

Four other men were found not guilty of the plot and the jury failed to reach a verdict in the case of an eighth suspect, Britain's Press Association reported.

The bombers intended to simultaneously destroy at least seven planes carrying over 200 passengers each between London's Heathrow airport and the United States and Canada in August 2006 using explosives hidden in soft drink bottles, prosecutors said.

The conspirators were caught before they could put their plan into action following the largest counter-terrorism operation ever carried out by British police.
