[Terror group Islamic State is employing
scientists and weapons experts to
train jihadists to carry out
sophisticated "spectacular"
attacks in Europe, while also
modifying weapons systems
capable of targeting passenger
jets and military aircraft.

From a "jihadi university" in the Syrian city
of Raqqa, the scientists have stunned
western weapons experts
by producing a homemade
thermal battery
for surface-to-air missiles.]

This is alarmist. There are very few surface to air missiles capable of shooting down airliners at high altitude, and certainly not old ones. The stability and accuracy of old weapons puts those firing them at the greatest risk

The possibility of them making home made bombs is also not new. That couple were making them in Reading
