The enemy within and without?

'There are at least 20 Britons in training camps along the Afghan-Pakistan border who are being trained in firearms and explosives.

...

Abdulla Ahmed Ali, the leader of a plot to bring down trans-Atlantic aircraft using home-made liquid bombs, was brought up

in Walthamstow, East London, and Jhelum and Omar Khyam, the leader of the fertiliser gang planning to blow up a shopping centre or nightclub, also visited the town before attending an al-Qaeda training camp in Malakand.

The city, which is 55 miles south east of Islamabad, has a population of about 175,000.

Germany’s Federal Criminal Police Office said they had “concrete evidence” that 70 people have travelled from Germany to Pakistan and Afghanistan for military training and the figure could be as high as 220.

Ahmed Sidiqi, 36, a German citizen who was captured in Kabul in July, is said to have given American interrogators some of the information that led to the unraveling of the latest plot. '

'Thanks' to The Telegraph for actually reporting the scale of threat that the UK and Europe face from people of Pakistani origin. Does all but unrestricted immigration look like such a good idea now?

To any passing labour supporter; was the policy to "rub the Right's nose in diversity" the right thing to do?
