I work on a military base in Afghanistan. We get bombs lobbed at us about every other day.
We know that there is not much to worry about because statistically, you are not likely to get hit.
The US has been hit by terrorist attacks what...once every 10 years or so (maybe once every 5 years in the UK)? In a population of hundreds of millions?
Statistically terrorism should not even be a glimmer of a miniscule thought on your mind.
Unfortunately, statistically I am more likely to get raped out here than hit by a bomb. That is something I do worry about.

firstly i have to thank everyone who shared their opinion with me, i knew this was the place to get a "real view" from some proper people.
i think the overall feeling is that whether its on our street or on a street in Palestine violence and fascism should not be tolerated whatever mask it wears or whatever excuse it hinds behind.

Terrorfakt makes great music. so does tError and the whole terrorcore sceneoid.
I have no tolerance for religious violence, state sanctioned or otherwise.
England is reaping what it has sown, not to imply that violence is just.
when you say england , do you mean the uk? thats a can of worms for another thread!I have no tolerance for religious violence, state sanctioned or otherwise.

without doubt the british govt has much blood on its hands over the years, and a certain amount of backlash has, and will for a long time be experienced.
my point was, as a country england has experienced terrorism (semidomestic and otherwise) for the best part of a hundred years. Im not try to justify either sides positions or actions, simply the populace reaction was completely different based on a differing history. Until very recently terrorism was a big part of daily life esp in london.
I hope everyone would agree that history shows us that any violence doesnt solve problems in the long run
Terrorism is a huge issue affecting the lives of millions and killing thousands every month, but there's hardly any terrorism in Europe or in the U.S. whereas terrorism attacks happen daily in Irak, Libya, Pakistan, Afghanistan...
Britons don't know nor imagine what terrorism really is. Maybe, they're just lucky.

I've experienced 2 terrorist attacks first hand
The Warrington IRA attack and the Manchester bombing.
As I remember it, people just carried on with their lives as normal.
Terrorism is a minor thing that affects a few people (not being disrespectful to those people directly affected) - to obsess over it just ruins life for everyone and is a victory for the terrorists.
dcupid, similar experiences:The Warrington IRA attack and the Manchester bombing.

ive had 2 too,was in london for the 7/7 attack, and was in the us for 9/11. keep calm and carry on versus public hysteria, thats my recolection of the 2 events. however extremism in whatever guise cannot be alowed to govern how we live our lives

I'm more worried about chavs in the UK personally but I guess that's because I actually live here and in the real world 
the kind of chavs who go to edl rallies? 
i also live in the uk and am yet to meet anyone (other than Daily Mail readers) who believe there is a wave of islamic militants hell bent on destroying the country. terrorists are terrorists, doesnt matter the colour of their skin or their religious persuasion . the edl/bnp/nf - whatever they want to call themselves this week - are very good at preying on peoples insecurities, and who better than to blame than someone different from yourself.
To the OP> How many anti catholic marches did you attend when the IRA were blowing up various cities throughout England?

Any time you don't give people the ability to have a fair hearing for grievances, you shouldn't be surprised when they eventually turn to violence.
We have supported their dictators for a long time, and that's when our soldiers don't go walking directly into their countries, killing their friends and relatives, destroying their property and ultimately destroying their livelihoods (the economy in which they work and earn their living).
Despite all that, most Islamic people are still peaceful.
It says far more about us than it does about them. And when I say us, I mean the Western governments, because I don't have anything to do with all that shit. People want to support "their" govt, good, you support murdering, destructive thugs. How does that make you feel?

to me terrorism is excuse for politics to increase control over humans only
Out of disgust at the beheading of a British soldier in London i went on an EDL march.
The police and onlookers branded me a racist! i am NOT a racist.
And i wholeheartedly agree we should look at the reasons for these atrocities both at home and abroad but are our boys not fighting to protect the innocent people of the middle east against the oppression of normal people like you and me by sharia law and fundamental Islam that really is thousands of years old old has no place in a civilized modern society.
i think this is why i am growing to love bitcoin, straight to the person without having to be filtered through all the borders and redtape bullshit
LONG LIVE BITCOIN. A STEP TOWARDS A NEW WORLD.

I think people should realistically consider causes for terrorism. And on other hand look into how domestic issues could be resolved.
There isn't a way to stop it all, but many things could be done to prevent it on local level. Deal with mentally unstable, provide economy that provides work or future for young people.
And don't think you are free to murder people on other side of world.

Who cares about terrorism. There are more people killed from lightning strikes than from terrorist attacks. This year killed from lightning 3 people from terrorist attacks 0. Not to mention car accidents (largely unavoidable) or cancer (could be cured in most cases if enough money are put into research).
The problem is that Islamic fundamentalists are only ones standing in way to new world order and global 1984 state. That's why the western governments are so pro-jewish and anti-islamic.

Tell me this doesn't sound like something a Terrorist would say:
"We came, we saw, (laughs) he died. (more laughter)"

Oops, no, since it was said by a WASP politician, that's not terrorism. Terrorism is only when a bearded brown man in funny clothes says things like that.
