UPDATE II: Via Fox News

In response, Britain raised its security alert level to critical — the highest possible level indicating terrorist attacks are imminent.

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said she had raised the level and ordered security to be tightened in response to events in London and Scotland over last 48 hours.

Following on the heels of yesterday’s news in London is this out of Glasgow, Scotland:

Two men rammed a flaming sport utility vehicle into the main terminal of Glasgow airport Saturday, crashing into the glass doors at the entrance and sparking a fire, witnesses said. Police said two suspects were arrested.

The airport—Scotland’s largest—was evacuated and all flights suspended, a day after British police thwarted a plot to bomb central London, discovering two cars abandoned with loads of gasoline, gas canisters and nails.

“One has to conclude … these are linked,” Dame Pauline Neville- Jones, former head of Britain’s joint intelligence committee, told Sky News. “This is a very young government, and we may yet see further attacks.”

The conclusion that they are linked is speculative at best, but it would not be a shock.

U.S. Airport security has been increased, but the threat level has not been raised.

UPDATE: Fox News (TV) is reporting that the hospital where the occupants of the car that crashed in to the Glasgow airport entrance were taken has been evacuated.
