Safety on our own streets??? you're having a laugh. When were you ever effected by home grown terrorism??? (I have been....and guys who almost nailed me were not Muslims. Happened on 11 Sept as well). If it wasn't the Iraq and Afghan wars, it would be Cartoons about the Prophet or some other silliness (in our eyes) that the will cause the islamic hotheads to try and kill somebody. Anyhow we are in Afghan because of NATO, not the USA.
I suspect you will find he is using Iraq as the marker, not AFG.
Rightly or wrongly held opinion it may be, but I dont recollect any Islamic terror attacks in the
UK prior to the Iraq invasion?
edit: UK underlined just for FodPlod
