Level of Terror Threat still on 'Alleged'

After a year of investigation and a week of presumably very intensive interrogation of suspects and searching of property we are still on 'alleged' - everywhere, in the press, on TV and radio, no one will say 'plot', only 'alleged plot'.

On his blog, Craig Murray gives some points to bear in mind:

None of the alleged terrorists had made a bomb.
None had bought a plane ticket.
Many did not even have passports.

And without bombs, airline tickets, and in many cases passports, a jury would not be convinced beyond reasonable doubt that these people intended to go through with suicide bombings.
