On Friday, Home Secretary Theresa May said the threat level had been raised from "moderate" to "substantial". This meant a terror attack in mainland Britain was a "strong possibility".

Well what could do the same amount of damage as an mag 8 quake? a nuclear device!?! I believe Exercise Orion is a cover for nuclear event training. Also there were "Muslim officials" at the exercise but I don't think they will be the group of people who will be blamed, I believe that the blame will be aimed at the IRA.....why?

It would have to be a pretty big nuke to register magnitude 8.

OK lets try to narrow down where this "false flag" incident might happen, Well i am fairly positive it will not be any Nuclear sites, To well guarded and the amount of explosives required to blow a reactor up would need to be enormous, I worked at BNFL sellafield and the amount of concrete and steel that went into that place was ginormous. (four batching plants on site alone). Military bases, Again to well guarded and armed guards ( mod police), I agree the CIRA will be the patsy on this for deflection purposes to stop anti Muslim hate mobs..
Government buildings, Probably not because they can shift the workload to other departments up and down the UK, (i am almost sure TPTB will have built in redundancy features) so that only leaves infrastructure IE the Railways, easy to access and deploy a device to render the network inoperable causing financial chaos up and down the country IMO.....

Firstly, as I showed clearly in that thread about Exercise Orion, that wasn't anything new or strange to have in the UK. HF&R hold the worlds largest training exercises for Earthquake and disaster relief EVERY year and that wasn't even the first Exercise Orion either.
Basically, you got 2, added 2 and came up with 4,456,873...
