its never an over reaction when its ppls lives at stake,even more so when its our familys or friends lives, but i do agree with the rest, x

Well I partially agree, yes. I fully appreciate that you may be a bit annoyed at the reaction of the British people to such an attack which really was minuscule in comparison to the attacks that happen all the time in Israel but after this point is where I disagree. As people have already said, and as you said yourself, attacks in Israel are part of life - they are normal, almost accepted now because people know that they are going to happen and that is that. Some people will have grown up with it happening they know nothing different.
In Britain however it's a very different story, attacks like these are few and far between and when they do happen people become very scared because they are not used to it like the Israeli people are. I notice also that you mentioned that an airport in Israel gets hit daily and they do not close. The difference is that Britain do not want to allow another attack to take place, so they do their best to make sure that doesn't happen. Do you not think that the exact same thing would happen in Israel if it was that easy for them and if they hadn't simply become used to such things happening anyway?

We're not Israel, so British people won't be as interested in israeli affairs as much as British Affairs.

Therefore on BBC news, flooding in the North East will be far more important rather than Flooding in Gaza.

Cultural differences, Israel wants the war, we dont.

[hadouken!]

yeah they get bombed if they dont mow their grass right, but as soon as a firecracker goes off here, its a global phenominom

They want a war because their religion says they can fight back against 'enemies'. Though it doesn't say anywhere "fly planes into buildings" or "blow up cars outside clubs" ;l

What a daft thread, Israel has been in a state of decline for many years whereas the UK has built a kingdom of solitude and togetherness, What gives those people the right to come into our country and then exploit our resources only to bomb it in the name of a God who doesnt exist.

Im not racist and I hate racism but Im sick of what this country is being turned into, you hear it every day from from people that are from another country, refusing to take off veils and preaching hate through their mosques! What a load of nonsense, the fact is if you come to our country then abide by our rules, these extremist terrorists that bomb our country are people that will never amount to anything in life, I hope they all suffer like the bomber that got burnt in glasgow the other day, hope hes in agony now.

Precisly. If a British citizen went to a Muslim country for example, they'd get treated FAR worse.

People should be informed about a terrorist plot. The people were attempting to kill many citizens.. Whether it failed or not, people like to know and should be informed.

We can afford to close an airport in the name of safety. Many countries can't afford to close an airport, or may not be that bothered about the safety of the countries inhabitants.
