The government is to reassess how it would respond to possible new terror threats to the UK after Friday's attacks in Norway, William Hague says.
UK terror threat level reduced to 'substantial'
The UK terror threat level is being reduced from "severe" to "substantial", the home secretary has announced.
A fictional "scenario" of multiple bomb attacks on London's underground took place at exactly the same time as the bomb attack on July 7, 2005.
Peter Power, Managing Director of Visor Consultants, a private firm on contract to the London Metropolitan Police, described in a BBC interview how he had organized and conducted the anti-terror drill, on behalf of an unnamed business client
On the morning of September 11 2001, within minutes of the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, the CIA had been running "a pre-planned simulation to explore the emergency response issues that would be created if a plane were to strike a building". The simulation was held at the CIA Chantilly Virginia Reconnaissance Office.
The Bush administration described the event as "a bizarre coincidence". The matter was not mentioned by the media.(AP, 22 August 2002)

Currently the UK is looking at various aspects of the current Terrorism strategies looking at the CONTEST and PREVENT strategies, the publication of the 2011 Intelligence and Security committee and a recent change in the threat level all in this month. So not only is it perhaps good timing to reassess current Counterterrorism measures it is also vital that they do. In the UK the threat has almost always been Irish and Islamic terrorist groups in the past decade I would say that the threat from the political Right Wing has been slowly increasing. With that in mind along with recent events in Norway I would hope that Government is making the appropriate adjustments to the states Counterterrorism apparatus.
This has nothing to do with any kind of “false flag” and everything to do with adapting to the fluid nature of the terrorist threat.
"at half-past nine this morning we were actually running an exercise for, er, over, a company of over a thousand people in London based on simultaneous bombs going off precisely at the railway stations where it happened this morning, so I still have the hairs on the back of my neck standing upright!"
Is this just a means to illustrate that it's not only brown men screaming about Allah that we need to be suspicious of now - it's everyone?

Considering that this was an action taken by a Non Islamic person. than I would consider that this, considering the focus on "home grown terrorist organisations" of late that any review will focus on those internal groups that would be considered a threat to the establishment. i.e. all of us amongst other, patriot groups, freemen, survivalists. basically anyone refusing to tow the MSM line.
