As we all know, it has been over one year since London was hit by it's first suicide bombers, but not the first time London has been bombed many times in the past 30yrs by the IRA, Did we get any draconian laws that took away our civil liberties? No we didn't, what's the difference now? A terrorist is a terrorist, be they Irish, be they English, be that black, be they blue, be they from anywhere, there is no difference between them, they all use the same method to try an put forward their view of the world, and they only know one way and we know what that is.
The London bomber say they had grievances, that the West tends to have a very hypocritical policy towards the middle east, This I hear, this I understand but I don't support their way of expressing their grievances.
The prime minister told MPs it was down to moderate Muslims to stand up to extremism and tell those with "grievances" against the West they were wrong.
This shows that someone is just NOT listening to what people have to say, someone who clearly doesn't understand why some people will go to extremes to express things.
I will pass you over to Rachel North a survivor of the London bombing who has so eloquently expressed what I think thousands of us have felt. Read her comments on
A 'completely false' sense of grievance
