They got the job done!
It also sounds like there was pretty good international cooperation in breaking up the plot to blow up trans-Atlantic airliners with liquid explosives.
One has to wonder though about the legal dimensions. It would appear the Brits engaged in domestic spying (gasp!). They monitored British citizens on British soil (oh, no!).
Obviously, there is a lot we still don't know about the story. However, at first glance, one wonders if such a group was operating in the United States, would our intelligence services be allowed (legally) to monitor American citizens on American soil?
Anyway, a tip of the hat to the UK for a job well done!
