Ruthless, unshaking, and single minded? David Cameron in a nutshell.
Sometimes life confuses me. I don t think it's unreasonable to be frustrated by the tolerance shown to people who openly hate this country and the freedoms it offers while applying the letter if the law when it suits to easy targets. I would be apalled by a comment that said that all Pakistanis were terrorists, but I'm fairly sure this was just a badly phrased comment.
Fwiw I believe that ultimately the people who wish to destroy us will be successful. They are our polar opposites. Ruthless, unshaking and single minded. We have become overwhelmed by worrying about saying or doing the right thing which certainly has its plus side but could also be our undoing.
will he take argos vouchers to do it nowI will ask my Afghan mate later when he is planning to kill me, if I don't get back to you, you know what has happened.

You probably find that the overwhelming majority of people who seek refuge in this country don't hold the extremist views that you are stating.
In fact, by definition, few people have this mindset no matter where they are born.
I challenge your view that the Government aren't concerned about this or are doing little to address radicalism in any form.
It's also worth noting that our forces have spent years invading/occupying these countries that you are naming.
You reap what you sow.
Well I guess if another terrorist attack does happen and you find yourself in the middle of it with no legs left at least you can seek comfort in your last sentence
Mate I totally disagree with our troops being in afghanistan and similiarly when we were in Iraq. I hate the way we sacrifice our young people to appease the yanks. I also accept that this type of foreign policy adds to the hatred if us by certain people. However all the rational thought I possess cannot prevent me from hating those people who wish to kill or maim me because of a government policy I did not dictate. I feel exactly the same about these "invaders" as the native people of Afghanistan feel about our troops. It may not be intellectual brilliance but it is my emotion.
To be honest I would bring every member of the armed forces back from these foreign follies to protect the security of this country
@ ImARealWizard......
You love this country so much, that you no longer live here....nice one!
I suggest when you actually come back here to live THEN, you can pass judgement on how the UK should be run...Not until.:jerkit:
And I understand your feelings.
However, I am sure that you would also agree that the number of people who actually come here with intentions to cause 'terror' are incredibly small.
How difficult is it to actually blow up a plane in this country? Answer: Not very. There are many open fields and public areas around Heathrow and Gatwick from where you can launch a STA missile. How often has that happened? None.
How difficult is it to take in incendiary device onto the tube, bus, train or ferry? Not very. How often has it happened despite the 'heightened terror status'? None.
7/7 was a tragedy. And right next to a school that I taught at in London. Thankfully, these incidents are incredibly rare. If Al Queda are as well funded and connected as are made out to be, they would be able to coordinate attacks like we saw in London on a monthly basis in many countries around the world.
It suits the governments to use terror as a way of controlling and eroding civil rights. However if feeds the xenophobic fuel that is liberally sprayed throughout certain socio-economic groups in society by less than desirable characters. Which I find unpalatable and irrational.

I laughed so much at that I fell off my chair. How that could be applied to any modern day British politician I never know
Considering you have no idea what job I'm doing, I suggest that you keep your ill-informed prejudices about me to yourself.
And as a point of order, you're not on Twatter now, so no need to act like one and use the atmark out of correct context. x
