    Actually, he's not. He's just telling me I'm wrong, and telling me what I must do. That's not reason, that's reasonless dissention.

    Is that supposed to be a cack-handed complement?

      You know that I know that you know that I know that even Richard knows you're being silly and won't admit that we're collectively right. That's okay. Everyone else knows this too...

        I had suspected this connection for years! At long last, I have the proof!

                Yeah, that last bit was unnecessary, sorry about that. Remember though, that my point was not about attacks that killed people - it was purely about having the simple ability to create explosive devices that work, and all parties in NI proved that they can do that will significantly more success than the current crop of middle eastern terrorists.

                NI was a near war zone for decades, with large arms stockpiles that were beyond the reach of the UK authorities. Putting a pound of semtex into a bag and catching the 7:30 back from Lahore isn't an option thankfully. If it were, my guess is we would have seen a lot worse.

                      No. I would prefer that the scale of response was in some way related to the scale of the threat. We are spending vast sums of money on prevention of terror attacks that are repeatedly failing to materialise. Compare the amount of deaths and injury due to terrorism with the amount of deaths and injury due to dangerous driving, or gang warfare. Then compare the amount of time and money that is being spent on attempting to resolve these issues.

                          As proved last week - prevention had nothing to do with the failure of these attacks.

                              Fair enough. Still - at least it's a happy cloud, not a quivering-in-fear cloud.

                                Perhaps you are confusing cause and effect here... Or perhaps you would prefer that the "amateur" terrorists whose early attempts fail just be ignored until they actually succeed in killing a few thousand people?

                                  Exactly. Therefore, the correct way to render such an attack impotent is to point and laugh at the incompetance. Hysterical reporting and filling the streets with armed police play right into the hands of those aiming to cause terror.

                                  I can see where you're coming from, but pointing and laughing until something serious happens isn't what's called for here. What's needed is an honest appraisal of their motivation, if it's brain-washing in a Madrasa then something will have to be done as people bought up this way are just not compatible with life in Europe. Maybe recognition for past wrongs made against the Muslim world would be a good starting place.

                                    I think a better solution would be to let a terrorist bombing force you to change your vote to the complacent socialist candidate. Right?....Am I right?

                                        In Spain, Terrorists dictate democracy. Remember how the other candidate was winning in all the polls. And then terrorists bombed that train station. And then how all you Spaniards got scared and voted for the wussy candidate? Yeah. That's the way to do it!

                                          Stupid simplistic summing-up there and quite simply incorrect I suggest Google. The people voted based on beliefs not the person with the best hair. Hey, like, do you happen to know what country Spain is in man?
