A&C - Nice idea - however an number of these radicals seem to be using Pakistan as a training ground too ! Do we declare war on one of the partners
in the war on terror? Similarily what worrys me is that a number of the 'homegrown' bombers that struck in the U.K seem to have used parts of North Wales for team building and paintball etc! Should we outlaw paintball and team building courses in the U.K ?
The seems to be a convienient tie with Afgahanistan for training - sadly I am of the opinion that refinned training can take place anywhere . The thing we need is vigilance - fighting a war of attrition in Afghanistan is just killing the foot soldiers of the Taliban - it doesn't stop the causes of resentment
in Muslim society nor address the ability to gain information from other sources - i.e the internet.
