Obviously I don't condone their behaviour but reminds me of a story about the London riots... One person, asked by a journalist if rioting was really the best way to accomplish their objectives, responded: "Yes, because if we weren’t rioting, you wouldn’t be talking to us."

Point proven by your post. It got you talking about Leicester on here.

However I doubt the world leaders will miss one Air Cadet minibus and suddenly change NATO policy overnight. I'm sure they have bigger concerns.
