On September 27, police stopped three vans near RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire. The base has been used by U.S. B-1 bombers to strike Iran. Five British men in their early 20s from London were arrested on terrorism and explosives charges after tips about suspicious vehicles and masked men. A sixth man, a dual UK-Iranian national, was arrested days later. A seventh followed. All seven walked out on police bail. None has been charged.
🚨 IT’S OFFICIAL: The attempted terrorist attack on RAF Fairford base in the UK — used by AMERICAN TROOPS and jets — was almost certainly directed by IRAN and the IRGC, per UK PM Burnham
AND THERE IT IS.
Yet the suspects are RELEASED by UK police. Why are they not IN CUFFS right now?!
President Trump said immediately after the first arrests that the US was watching the potential plot
Clearly the US-UK knew about it before…yet the UK released the suspects
Either something is being hidden from the public or those suspects need to be re-arrested IMMEDIATELY!
The barbarians are inside the gates. The UK needs to wake up.

Police searched the vans with bomb disposal teams and found gasoline—no improvised explosives. Assistant Commissioner Laurence Taylor called the release an “investigative decision” grounded in experience. The men remain under investigation with “stringent conditions” on their movements and contacts. Under UK counter-terrorism rules, police can hold suspects up to 14 days if the evidence supports it. Without strong material on explosives or an imminent attack, that window shrinks fast. Analysts have noted the absence of devices as the practical reason the men were not locked up longer.
🚨 HOLY CRAP! UK police have just released on bail the 7TH SUSPECT in the terrorism plot against RAF Fairford base — used by American troops to target Iran
Two OTHER men from Latvia were also just arrested near another base.
What is GOING ON with the UK finding suspected terrorists and letting them go?!
ALL SEVEN men arrested in the Fairford plot are now out on bail, and NOT ONE has been charged
One of them is a dual Iranian-British national, and British authorities have linked the plot to TEHRAN
Meanwhile the two Latvians were caught INSIDE RAF Molesworth, a base used by US intelligence, after cutting through the fence
No games. Keep them ALL IN CUSTODY

Weeks later, on October 12, Prime Minister Andy Burnham told Parliament the assessment is clear: the incident was “highly likely to have been coordinated in Iran—almost certainly directed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard.” He promised crackdowns on Iranian networks, more sanctions, and summons for the Iranian ambassador. The United States and Britain, along with other allies, issued a joint statement recognizing the UK’s attribution of Iranian involvement through covert networks and proxies. The Pentagon had already pulled its heavy bombers from Fairford over the threat.
President Trump said at the time he was surprised by the bail decision and would not have made it. “How do you give bail to a terrorist?” he asked. Iranian officials rejected the whole story as baseless speculation. One X user put the contradiction bluntly: if the government now says Iran’s Revolutionary Guard directed it, why were the suspects released on bail?

The practical answer is the evidence that existed on day one. Gasoline in vans is not the same as a completed device. Complex foreign-state investigations take time. That does not erase the gap. A Labour government that has spent recent weeks talking up closer EU ties and ruling out early elections is simultaneously declaring an IRGC-directed plot against a shared base while the alleged participants remain free under bail conditions. The bombers left. The suspects stayed out. The public is left to weigh which message carries more weight.
Great Britain is no longer great in any way. Their Socialist policies have destroyed them on its own. Coupled with the importation of massive numbers of illegals that detest the UK and British people, only the Woke Leftists would applaud what is happening. They are falling fast and headed toward a real revolution. It is only a matter of time, and their Left will be applauding the entire time as they detest White people and Western culture.
Now they think they can release actual terrorists and still think the U.S. should view them as an allied nation? Perhaps it is time to not only remove all of our bombers as Trump did this past week. It is time for us to remove ourselves from NATO and bring our troops home.
