What a difference a day makes

Yesterday the BBC were deleriously reporting that five of the gentlemen arrested on suspiscion of conspiring to cause explosions were released without charge. The BBC's tone was one of of course they were released, Islamic terrorism is a myth. The BBC sem less happy to report today that:
'Nine men have been charged with conspiracy to cause explosions in the UK and with preparing for terrorism, West Midlands Police have said.

The men are aged between 19 and 28 and three are from Cardiff, two from east London and four from Stoke-on-Trent. '
So what links the nine men, the BBC seem unable or unwilling to speculate beyond listing their names:
'The men charged from Cardiff are Gurukanth Desai, 28, of Albert Street; Omar Sharif Latif, 26, of Neville Street, and Abdul Malik Miah, 24, of Ninian Park Road.

Those charged from London are Mohammed Moksudur Rahman Chowdhury, 20, of Stanliff House, Tower Hamlets, and Shah Mohammed Lutfar Rahman, 28, of St Bernard's Road, Newham.

The four charged from Stoke-on-Trent are Nazam Hussain, 25, of Grove Street; Usman Khan, 19, of Persia Walk; Mohibur Rahman, 26, of North Road, and Abul Bosher Mohammed Shahjahan, 26, of Burmarsh Walk.'
I make that eight Muslims; maybe the BBC will concentrate on reporting that Gurukanth Desai has been charged as he has a Sikh or maybe Hindu name.



Is it synchronicity that one of the men, Usman Khan, lives in a road named Persia Walk?
