The four suspected bombers arrested by British and Italian police are "dopey" and "not very bright" and will prove to be an intelligence gold mine, a former senior Scotland Yard officer said Saturday.
"They were so unprofessional," and not at all like the religious militants found in the Middle East, John O'Connor told CBC-TV News.
The four, who he said drank, smoked dope and womanized, in contrast with the austere life of religiously motivated attackers, were susceptible to suggestion by their recruiters.
So they will be easy for interrogators to break down, O'Connor said. That means the planners and bomb-makers, who assumed the four would die in suicide attacks on the London transit system on July 21, "must be quaking in their boots."Well, isn't that conveeeeeniant?
btw, does this sound familiar?
