Things never change, I remember comments like this 30 - 35 years ago, only then related to the IRA which was probably a bigger and more imminent threat (remember the Uxbridge bomb, after which we were actually given rounds for the guns, previously only provided in NI!). Now as then it seems to largely come down to cash and commitment.

Anti Flame: I am not saying there is no threat now or that things should not improve! Also I am not referring to sites in very hot countries and acknowledge the IRA did not go in for suicide bombs.
