Sky News reports on developments in the Iranian 'terrorist attack' on RAF Fairford:
However, it has now emerged that one of the suspects had contacted authorities around an hour before, a development first reported by The Times.
All five men were subsequently released on bail on Monday.
Counter terror police said on Tuesday that no explosive devices had been found in the vans stopped near the base - which has been used in recent months by the US military to launch airstrikes against Iran - but that a quantity of petrol was recovered.
This whole incident is beginning to sound a bit like the Skripals - full of inconsistencies - and another inept attempt by a 'foreign power' to do some damage on UK soil.
The grannies of Greenham Common could have done a better job!
No explosives but a quantity of petrol was recovered?
Released on bail?
The police called not only by a local farmer but also one of the gang?
Trump and Rubio talking it up as if they know who these British citizens are and MI6 didn't?
"These were serious people - seriously bad people."
Or maybe just townies stealing from farms at the weekend. It happens all the time in the UK.
Maybe they got lost in the darkness looking for Jeremy Clarkson's farm?
Even "former MI6 agent, Christopher Steele" was reported by Sky News as saying:
Signs today suggest this is not a serious terrorist incident
But as John McEnroe might say: You cannot be serious!
Who in their right mind would believe Steele?
Remember the 'Steele dossier' that triggered Russiagate in the USA?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2018/politics/steele-timeline/
The Steele dossier commissioned by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary Clinton's campaign through the research firm Fusion GPS.

Yes, it's that Christopher Steele.
It tells you something when an MSM outlet like Sky News is turning to this guy for a credible comment.

Bottom Line:
The Steele dossier played a central role in fueling suspicions of Trump-Russia collusion but has since been largely discredited as a reliable intelligence source.
