Terror Threat
« on: January 23, 2010, 08:25:12 AM »
I see the terror threat level has been raised...  ::)

I'm afraid I'm sooo cynical about this lot now I don't believe a word of it... in fact I believe that Gorgon would LOVE a nice terrorist atrocity at the moment to deflect attention from his incompetence...

In fact I wouldn't put it past this lot to do a bit of bombing to save their own skins at the GE. How sad is that...?  Shrugs:

Are we all expected to be a bit more frightened of muslims with backpacks?

So yesterday if I saw one I would be:  scared2: scared2: scared2:

Today I have to be:  scared2: scared2: scared2: scared2:

Nope. I am more frightened of the Government  noooo:

Well they obviously can't tell us for security reasons...  ::)

This lot are totally bloody clueless aren't they...?

What was the terror threat level when the IRA were blowing us up every week I wonder?  Shrugs:

They don't need bomb attacks now, give it a couple of weeks and then make a statement about a 'large terrorist plot' that has been foiled but only give out information that can't be confirmed by any other source and claim it is due to national security considerations. This government are arrogant enough to think we would believe the statement and decide they are doing a good job after all.

You're right of course... I guess we can almost guarantee a plot foiled before too long...

Judging from some of the posts on here that little trick may backfire.

http://newsforums.bbc.co.uk/nol/thread.jspa?forumID=7437&edition=1&ttl=20100123124700

I could be mistaken but 15-20 years ago weren't the only terrorist attacks being carried out in the UK coming from the IRA et al and not islamic fundamentalists?

well we are certainly safer from terrorist attacks than we were 15-20 years ago, despite the fact that the pro-terrorists here in the UK are trying to tell us that we are now more at risk. The opposite is true, less people have died in the UK from Islamic terrorist attacks under this government than they did under the last.

I've got more chance of being ravaged by a loose mad rabied dog up 'me 'ill' than getting killed by a terrorist.

Got lunged at by a muddy mongrel this avvy in fact, so there you go. I rest me case ::)
