LONDON (Reuters) - British Muslim groups said on Saturday Britain's policy on Iraq and Lebanon was fuelling militancy, as Pakistan said it had arrested a British al Qaeda member over an alleged plot to blow up transatlantic airliners. 

A court gave British police more time to question 22 of the 24 suspects arrested in swoops on Thursday when officials said they had foiled a plot to use chemical bombs to bring down as many as 10 airliners flying from Britain to the United States.
