Terrorist Attack - Lead Up To General Election
Discussion
I reckon it's a pretty reasonable question.
I should think that Special Branch are crapping themselves, all hands to the pump so to say. It may happen, but you have to consider that all the previous exploits have been geographically closer to islamic hotspots like Tunisia, Turkey and such.
It's anyones guess how well pinned down the situation is, but I'd not be surprised if something happened.
I wonder how it would look poitically if Mr Blair called in the tanks prior to the election. As a result of this idea, I suggest that tension over this issue will be high. It'll be a fight between scaremongery, public perception, and the saftey of the public.
Perhaps this is the order in which TB thinks of them.
sorry

Remember the Terrorists need to get luck once the Security Forces 100% of the time

Well I'll have to disagree with you there.
I'd rather we dished out our own justice in the first instance.
Secondly, thinking of them as scumbags doesn't do anyone any favours. Tring to understand what their motives and ideals are is a better approach. One doesn't have to agree with them, even if one understands what they're up to.
As for them being the enemy.... They're only part of the enemy if they're in the enemies loop. From the perspective of the real enemy, they'd be too much of a risk to communicate with.
The real worry is the unknown.

It wasn't long ago that the IRA were bombing England and London - it's not really any different IMO. The threat is there but everyone goes about their daily business and gets on fine - no need to start boarding up the windows just because an election is coming.
Our strength is in defiance. That's seriously cool.
I don't think there's anything that would be gained from a terrorist attack. There's no particularly muslim friendly party in the UK that a mass of the electorate could be swayed towards voting for.

I'm not sure that they'd potentially do it to have a particular effect, more to demonstrate that they can have "an" effect.

Yes, but that wouldn't do anything apart from hand Blair the initiative. I'm quite surprised it's been so long without an attack really.
Hmm, Maybe I'm being thick.... (I usually am
) What sort of initiative?
If you mean how it would look, I'd have thought that some form of tough stance at this stage would reflect badly on him. You know, he's got it wrong again and had to get tough.
