Heh. The BBC experiences bomb anxieties- according to The Sun. Maybe the people who feel that the BBC were too pro-war in Iraq (It feels weird saying this, but I know some people did claim to feel that) will take this as evidence that the Islamofascists (or legitimate protest movement against western Imperial economies) think so too. I'd ask the question though: why bomb your most eloquent and respectable contact with Western opinion (I am not suggesting that this was some kind of false alarm, just raising the question)? Why bomb the organisation that accepts the view that when Israel breathes too deeply it legitimises some kind of Jihad?

The second thing is that, in the current and foreseeable climate, when it comes to shifty looking Arabs (or even those with an Islamic 'look' about them) we're all racists. I even sympathise with the Beeb with that tolerance which my generation usually has for hypocrisy, having been weaned on the stuff.

The third thing is that we really ought to know the strategy of the Islamofascists by now, and we all ought to recognise the 'War on Terrorism'. If it doesn't, or didn't, mean anything, it's going to have to.
