The first story, since the referendum debate kicked off in earnest, suggesting threats by nationalist ‘extremists’ has appeared in a Scottish newspaper.
Widely predicted by independence supporters, the story claims that a ‘group’ of independence minded extremists has threatened to carry out a terrorist attack against opponents of Scottish independence.
According to the Scottish Sunday Express a group calling itself the Scottish National Liberation Army has threatened to “target” London and other major cities if Westminster continues to interfere in the independence referendum. The story also featured on BBC Scotland's Shereen Nanjiani radio programme early on Sunday morning.
However the so called group is little more than well-known misfit Adam Busby, a pathetic figure with a history of sending bizarre and often fantastical emails and threats, together with his son - also called Adam.
The Busbys, well known to the UK authorities and ritually derided by independence supporters, have a long history of issuing Walter Mitty type threats against both opponents and supporters of Scottish independence.
Busby senior, who is confined to a wheelchair with multiple sclerosis, ‘operated’ in the Irish Republic for years in the full knowledge of the UK authorities.
His so called ‘organisation’ has appeared sporadically in the Scottish press over the years. The 'tartan terrorist' articles usually coincide with the issue of independence coming to the fore.
In 2010, twenty years after moving to Ireland, Busby was convicted in an Irish court after sending hoax bomb threats four years earlier from a Dublin library computer against two New York flights - BAA did not take the threats seriously. This followed an earlier 1997 sentence for similar hoax threats.
His son, a plasterer from Paisley, was also recently jailed for making threatening phone calls to the Daily Record newspaper and the Scottish Press Association.
Busby jnr also claimed to have sent threatening packages to First Minister Alex Salmond and ex Lib Dem MSP Mike Rumbles in order, he said, to highlight his father’s ill health.

The usual sleazy MSM misdirection and propagands. Since I plan to think evil thoughts about westminister and make rude gestures whenever unionist politicians talk their usual rubbish on TV - I wonder if I'll be classed as a terrorist.

So serious a threat has Busby been to us that he has been able to send threats and bombs to UK for decades from faraway Dublin without once having been the subject of an extradition request. The Express, Daily and Sunday, is a comical publication, politically incoherent, and the first place I look every day if I want a laugh. I don't know how any self-respecting journalist can write for it. The comical highlight is the weekly ramblings of Dorothy Doolally.

This is probably the first 'terrorist threat' story in a long line being concocted by the MSM. They'll stoop to any depth to convince readers against independence for Scotland. In fact, they're as bad as Pravda was for propaganda.
They deserve a two-fingered salute (not the V for victory one!) for their scaremongering attempts.

Aye for Scotland. Agree with your sentiments rodmac.
The independence supporters probably should get used to it. Im just wondering how they are sending threats if they are both in jail. Anyway the Scots I think have enough sense to realise that independance is not about involvement in terrorism. Dont think this one will have far reaching consequences for the campaign.

There is a palpable sense of naivete surrounding the benign intentions of an English Establishment threatened by Scotland going its own way.
Sure, forward thinking Scots have warned about such likelyhoods as the emergence of extremism should Westminster continue to threaten and intervene in Scotlands right to persue self-determination.
We all know that should there be no overt threat from lunitics here, that it is not beyond our level of awareness that forces from elsewhere could create events which could be laid at the door of a so called Scottish extremist.
We should all be on alert for such activity as others have form here. Should there be an explosion somewhere, hopefully not taking lives, and be levied at the door of a group from Scotland we will then know where we stand.
It's just as well that our First Minister has not developed the habit of taking solitary drives in the country.

Posted on another thread. Whether the threat is true or not it still needs voicing.
O/T The SNLA thing is bad news. In the run up to the referendum we'll be looking for the international community to both show support and promise recognition of a separate Scottish nation.
I believe that if certain people get into this kind of activity then they may well capsize our efforts to politically chart a course to independence.
I believe in "people power" ever since seeing the destruction of the Belin Wall. In fact this week we all saw the real effective power that the masses have over governments in the american SOPA (internet piracy) law being pushed to one side by senate and congress, a law that could have had far reaching consequences across the world and one that would have suited certain elements within the US government.
Terrorist action never achieves anything except destruction for its own sake. I would personally ask these people to refrain from making our position harder to cope with. This can be done effectively by the ballot box without a single shot being fired. Believe me.

It's fiction to undermine the indepence movement. A few low key nutcases probably being watched by MI5 for years have no doubt been "encouraged" by them.
Look at the recent cases of environmental activist groups and undercover police.
This is the level they will go to!

The very fact of the above sentence says it all about these very very few idiots.
The only credible threats like these are related not to terrorism (particularly since Scots voters use their votes to make political change (and this is paying dividends as we are the closest yet in 300 years to choosing Independence) but there is the sectarianism thing which was very serious-idiots let loose on a keyboard, or writing threatening letters or sending parcel bombs will exist-we just need to catch them and jail them or put give them access to a suitable psychiatric institution.

Given that the Anti-Scottish Parties, The BBC and their lackeys in The MSM have so far shown themselves incapable of coming up with a single valid reason for remaining in the Union it could be that the flood of threats and ridiculous stories are seen by them as their only weapon and that they are hoping to provoke violent reactions which can then be thrown against the case for Independence.
We must be wary of the fact that in every society and I include Scotland there are individuals capable of being provoked into political violence.

Hi Peeps,
If there's even a smell of "Nationalist Nutterism" then whether it's an establishment ploy run by westminsters' fake rock salesmen or if it's some Rangers or Celtic supporters who got sick of sectarianism and have decided to play silly beggars, we have to publicly deplore any threats, real or made up to London because I assure you that the media will pick up that you're taking the situation as a bit of a joke and that will play poorly under the circumstances. Now who's with me on this? All you've got to do is publicly deplore any violent organisations that may be acting alone. That will pour cold water over it.

It just goes to show that the Unionists are getting desperate in finding ways to counter the arguments for independance.
Scotland will achieve independance in 2014, and will achieve it peacefully and democratically.

Quoting Robert Louis:
Glasgow was believed by those in authority to be the Scottish centre of the revolutionary movement based mainly on information passed upwards from the spies. It was in fact the centre of the Government spy system and the location of a highly profitable but thoroughly dishonest and disreputable conspiracy amongst the government spies. Alexander Richmond, a weaver from pollockshaws in Glasgow, had in 1817 been revealed to be a Government Agent. Although Richmond had been exposed as a spy he remained as spymaster controlling the activities of a tiny group of British agents who’d wormed their way into the movement right upto the highest level. One of these informers, Alexander King of Glasgow infiltrated the weavers' unions early in 1819 and now sat on the Provisional Committee and informed his spymasters of a secret meeting to take place in Glasgow on 21 March.

Please excuse me if I m being ignorant, but I m sure that many people on here will confirm, that this is, in all likeliehood, a special bru or M15 set up and not the first time this guy has raised his head during an important time for the SNP.
