One thing the report does not say is that it was a terror probe, read the terms of reference, it was not asked to examine that.
You may believe it was, but to do that you would have to think the terrorists to be stupid and ham fisted (to draw attention to themselves) which I believe is a dangerous assumption.
Paranoia, by definition, does not have to be proven, in the current climate if your not whiter than white you must be guilty (of something,) and you represent a danger to the free(?)world.
