Something vaguely interesting in the wake of recent terrorist attacks.

[Burney]

Indeed. One wonders why Peter is so keen to differentiate western terrorists from their counterparts in societies where religious dogma still prevails? Most western terrorists have spent time in such societies, so why should they not also be considered products of the same environment?

Peter, you point to how few terrorists there are in spite of the efforts of fundamentalist Imams to persuade them and how this shows that the religion is not to blame. Again, why do you only count western terrorism in your workings?

Also, how would your smugness be looking if all of the foiled attacks of recent years had been successful in the west? Would you be quite so ready to point to how few of them are prepared to die and murder for their beliefs?

Have you read Douglas Murray's book yet? Depressing, but vital reading.

At least you lot can bugger off to Israel when it all goes tits up.
