This kind of terrorism is not exactly a new thing on Mainland Britain. In truth we only had a fairly short period of grace between the IRA campaigns and this new brand of Islamist attack. Although, I suspect the destructive intent of the Islamist attacks is greater. Particularly towards the later stages of their campaign, the IRA would often call through warnings prior to the explosion, to allow the police to evacuate the area.
