Rachel in North London

Rachel in North London is trying to decide whether she should go and support David Davis. Please go and read her well argued piece and maybe offer her some advice. I assume that Luke Akehurst will have the decency to keep out of this discussion.

In the same vein as the Exeter failed bombing

It is a rather sad indictment of my expectations of Labour Britain that I have not commented on the Exeter bombing of the Jewish owned Giraffe restaurant by a Muslim bomber. I will draw your attention to this article on the BBC website:

"A prisoner has pleaded guilty to making threats to blow up one of Europe's largest shopping centres with three limousines packed with explosives.

Saeed Ghafoor, 33, of Southampton, made the threat to a prison officer while at HMP Haverigg in Cumbria on 7 February.

The former English teacher appeared via video-link at the Old Bailey charged with threatening to cause criminal damage at Bluewater in Kent.

...

Ghafoor was in prison serving a 12-month sentence imposed by Southampton Crown Court in January for threats to kill his sister and assault.

...

He said: "Mr Ghafoor made the threat and it was treated seriously.

"We do not know if he could have carried it out. It was not a bomb hoax. It appeared on the face of it to be a serious threat by someone who was not happy."

...

He said he was protesting at the involvement of British and American troops in Afghanistan.

He was seen by the prison imam, who formed the impression that Ghafoor was susceptible to brainwashing.

After his arrest, a psychiatrist told police he had no mental disorder, said Mr Arnold.

He was remanded in custody for reports before sentencing next month."



We should not be reassured that so many of these Islamic terrorists seem to be inept, one day one of them will suceeed and just as on 7/7 many innocent people will die, many more will bear the scars and injuries for a very long time and even more will have to mourn the dead and deal with the injured. And just like after 7/7, the Labour government that caused the problem with its insane immigration "system" will spout platitudes about caring and dealing with the root causes whilst in reality doing nothing other than improving their own security and reducing the freedoms of the innocent whilst paying Osama bin Laden's "spiritual ambassador in Europe", Abu Qatada, to stay in England.

A thorny question

Rachel from North London has a must read piece on her blog, here's the start:

"If your job was to protect this country, and you found out that some people born in this country were going off to a different country ( say, a training camp in Pakistan)
to learn to use machine guns and rocket launchers, and intended after their training to attack UK targets and UK soldiers abroad, ( say, in Afghanistan and Iraq) but as far as you know (or hoped) they weren't actually going to attack UK soil, or at least, you had no conclusive proof of it what would you do? What should you do?"

Do read the rest, most thought-provoking...
