whatever atrocitites their troops are comitting in Iraq and Afghanistan are justified. Just like their pathetic attempt at fooling the world with the
botched "airline hijack plot" at Heathrow a while back. Didn't buy that for a nanosecond. Yes, yes amigos...keep the people afraid and they will
dance to your tune.
Just back from holiday so a little late to reply. Now I'm back home just south of Glasgow!
Let me get this right. The government hired a doctor to perform a suicide drive into the airport to blow it up. He was ordered to resist arrest and
fight the police should he fail, even if he was on fire!
You're an idiot!
By the way these attacks have nothing to do with Iraq or Afghanistan. They are simply distractions which the extremists use with dumb help of people
in the West linking the two. A quick reminder here. The London tube bombers and these recent bombers were resident in the UK. They know the anti war
sentiment in the UK. They know how many people DIDN'T vote for Blair in the last election. They know how disconnected young women are with politics.
Therefore to specifically target a nightclub which they know will have a large proportion of women is done for one reason and one reason only :
mindless extremist fundamentalist twisted islamic ideals. They wanted to kill western women who are an afront to their beliefs. It has absolutely
NOTHING to do with Iraq.
Linking these attacks to Iraq simply stops the west from confronting the real issue : twisted fanatics.
