Terrorism.

I've just finished drooling over Urban Outfitters' new stuff... i know i shouldn't like it but i do....

Today i will talk about Terrorism.

I got on the bus home today and i look over and saw an unattended bag.
Usually if someone leaves a bag on the bus its a carrier bag but this was a big-enough-to-put-a-bomb rucksack.
i gave it to the driver who looked completely oblivious to what i was thinking and it was all fine. there's always a slight disappointment when things look as if they're going to be shit and then it turns out alright.

I mix with quite a few muslims and i've been out with them when people shout 'TERRORIST' at them. It's shocking that people can get away with such blatant racism although to be honest, at the time the ridiculousness of it was quite funny.

OBVIOUSLY the difficult thing with Terrorism is distinguishing the freedom fighters from...well, just the fighters? La resistence in France could be called terrorists...and they were good guys...

But these 'islamist terrorists' that we're all so aware of, are kinda strange. They don't seem to have one aim to strive for, do they? Some are like 'lets put England under Shariah law for no reason in particular, even though i used to live in a place that DOES have shariah law, but they didnt have the NHS or Asda there.' and some seem to be the more understandable, well not understandable, just with a bit more twisted logic. 'England are killing Iraqis, so lets kill English people!'

I think as a nation, the british are fairly accepting of different opinions. the whole french idea of secularism would never ever catch on here, and i reckon thats a good thing, although obviously there are some limits. Like that teacher who wanted to wear the whole thing, nicab is it? i'd neeever take anything in off a teacher, cos you sometimes need to read their expression to understand.
