BBC News: Reports on the call by the UK PM Gordon Brown for the UK and Pakistan to work together against terrorism. This is a fine call from Mr Brown, one problem the Government of Pakistan cant even control the terrorists in the Swat Valley, and that is in Pakistan proper. In the tribal areas the Army of Pakistan is losing the battle with the terrorists. Thus the UK should expect within the next few years to get hit against as it was on 7/7. Guardian readers think its our fault, because we are in Iraq and Afghanistan, and that we don't place enough pressure on Israel. President Obama stated on his recent trip the following " .....don't fool yourselves -- because some people say, well, you know, if we changed our policies with respect to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, or if we were more respectful towards the Muslim world, suddenly these organizations would stop threatening us. That's just not the case. " Thus we are fighting terrorists not because what we do, it is because who we are, Western, Liberal, Democratic.
