LONDON , England ( CNN ) -- Images of a blazing car at the entrance of the terminal building at Glasgow airport were splashed across the front pages of Britain 's Sunday papers , with many warning that Britain is under attack from a new wave of terrorism . How the British press reported the Glasgow attack . The Sunday Mirror published dramatic pictures of a burning man trying to ignite explosives in the vehicle while being sprayed with water by an off-duty policeman . The News of the World had a picture of a `` hero '' police officer pinning down a smoldering bomber . The Sunday Telegraph newspaper said Britain was feared to be under terrorist attack for the third time in 36 hours after the attack , and following the discovery of two cars packed with explosive material and nails in London . In an editorial , The Sunday Times newspaper says London and Glasgow appeared to have had a lucky escape . `` The people behind these attempted atrocities clearly have twisted minds . How else to explain an attack directed at `` ladies night '' at the Tiger Tiger nightclub ? `` For Islamists -- and there seems little doubt that Muslim extremists were behind the plot -- young women drinking , dancing and enjoying themselves embodies everything they find repulsive about western society . `` There will be other weekends when we fear we will be commenting not on close shaves but on completed terrorist attacks . '' The Observer newspaper said Friday 's aborted London bomb attack was `` al Qaeda inspired '' and may have been linked to five terrorism suspects who have escaped Home Office control orders and are on the run . The newspaper also reports that former British prime minister Tony Blair had launched a powerful attack on `` absurd '' British Islamists who have nurtured a false `` sense of grievance '' that they are being oppressed by Britain and the United States . Blair warns that Britain is in danger of losing the battle against terrorists unless mainstream society confronts the threat . `` The idea that as a Muslim in this country that you do n't have the freedom to express your religion ... I mean you 've got far more freedom in this country than you do in most Muslim countries , '' Blair told Observer columnist Will Hutton . In an editorial , the newspaper says : `` Some believe that the solution to terrorism is to resolve the myriad grievances the terrorists broadcast so violently . This is a mistake . Many such grievances are imagined -- the West does not want to 'dominate the lands of Islam , ' for example . `` Many more are simply not Britain 's fault ; we are not to blame for the parlous economic state of many Islamic countries . Instead , we should remember that it is our way of life , and the attraction it holds , that remains our best weapon . `` The truth is that our democratic structures , our economy , our values and the society we have built upon them are much stronger than we often think .
