3. Obvious question here

Why can the British police capture bombers within a week and Osama Bin Laden remains at large, over four years later? Just askin'.I think we all know the answer to that one.

4. The police capture people. The military captures land.

Militarism has NEVER been the appropriate reaction to terrorism -- a political tactic!

8. The BNP is very active up there

I don't want to prejudge, but if you're a British Muslim living in urban West Yorkshire, you probably get plenty of practice in hate, thanks to the BNP and its supporters. Not that this justifies terrorism, of course.

Apparently explosives have been found at an address in Leeds.

9. If you hate the BNP why blow up Africans in London.

It makes no sense. London is a truly multicultural city. In some parts of West Yorkshire and the North West of England the community divisions remind me of Belfast. If the terrorists were to come out of a Muslim community in Britain I would have chosen these areas as the ideal breeding ground.
