A former head of MI5 last night warned the revelations by CIA fugitive Edward Snowden had left Britain at risk of ‘vigilantism’ because it was less able to protect itself from Islamist fanaticism.

Breaking his silence on the devastating impact of the security breach, Jonathan Evans said: ‘The result of this can only be that the overall risk of a successful terrorist attack in this country has risen.’

on alert? it’s not like they’re going to air drop from bombers

you know WHO they are and you know WHERE they are.

if ANYONE gets beheaded, the blame lies at the feet of those in power.

Often, the only way to defeat an enemy is to adopt some of their own tactics.

This refers to a potential attack on members of the military, so presumably a repetition of the Lee Rigby scenario. Just as a point of information for the benefit of a non-U.S. Freeper - is it usual for members of the U.S. military to go armed when off-base and off-duty on home territory? Once off duty, do they have the same right to carry as civilians, or is that overriden by military regulations? For UK military to go armed when off-base would not, presumably, require any general change in the gun laws, though I suspect it would be resisted for all sorts of reasons.

Maybe if they had reacted intelligently after the last headchopping incident by a bearded savage, this would not be a problem.
Right reaction: expel all members of the ROP because they belong to an organization that actively promotes the violent overthrow of British society.
