Question: How many new terrorist plots will need to be uncovered to ensure a Republican triumph in Novermber? I would not be shocked to see no one ever convicted in the (alleged) plot by British muslims to bring down planes. But by the time the cases are dismissed, another white girl will be abducted and killed and the media will not pay any attention.

b) At what point did you get the impression that I thought radical Moslem men had any sympathy whatsoever for my feminist leanings? I would imagine your average radical Moslem, or even not-so-radical Moslem (along with quite a few other faiths) would consider my feminism disturbing, possibly revolting and certainly not something deserving of respect. Does this therefore mean I should develop an abiding hatred of Moslems? c) Britain is clearly a target for terrorist acts. Any country engaged in the current 'Crusade' has made themselves a target by their involvement. To be entirely honest, terrorism isn't really a new phenomenon in the UK and the level of security hysteria seems entirely at odds with the level of the threat. This does not mean that I don't see the threat. Of course there is the possibility of this threat having been a genuine one. The fact that my (and many others) first response was ....yeah, believe it when you give me proof......is indicative of how many false alarms and fishing expeditions our security services have indulged in. Often these occur close enough to a vote on new security measures as to raise an eyebrow or two. Last edited by DanaC; 08-22-2006 at 11:55 AM. |
