Which is why Iraq was such an idiotic undertaking in the first place - without enough resources to actually "win the peace" and by diverting the limited resources there was from Afghanistan and without any links to Al-Qaeda and their ilk in the first place, it has done squat to make the world a safer place. Or combat terrorism, for that matter.
IMO its ok, because its an excuse to go to war against radical islamist groups. So as long as we get to desttoy those muslim fundamentalists, I'm happy. But of course, terrorism can never altogether be completely eliminated.
I think the attacks on London reflect on the fact that the religion Islam is a horrible hate inspired fanatic religion.

Don't you think the whole Iraq war made terrorism stronger instead of destroying it ? Anyway islam is not the only religion that causes fanatism, I think ALL religions do so. The Christians were persecuted by the Romans in the Antiquity, then durin Middle-Age the Christians persecuted everyone else, then there has benn the IRA-stuff and so on... So PLEASE quit talking only about islam, it's a bit insulting for those who are muslims and never killed anyone.

Seriously, now you're just trolling. Branding one billion Muslims or some 300 million Arabs for the actions of a few is ignorant at best and blatantly racist at worst.

Actually, if Americans really wanted to deal with terrorism, Syria, Iran and Saudi Arabia are the appropriate places. Iraq had a maniac leader that had to be overthrown but Iraq isn't the place which spawned terrorists (Saddam used to give 25000$ to families of a suicide bombers in Palestinian Authority, but that's small money compared to what Syria, for example, invests in terrorism)...

Back to topic : Now they're evacuating the tube stations in some other cities like Birmingham and Manchester in case of another attack.

Yeah. The same way invading Iraq reflects the fact that all Americans should be exterminated...
Fucking idiot....
