BE, I fully acknowledge that some terrorists are posing as refugees to gain entry to western European countries. It would be foolish to think that isn't so. Here's a link to an article which quotes UNHCR data on the male/female/family mix of refugees. www.factcheck.org/2015/09/stretching-facts-on-syrian-refugees/As always, news coverage can be edited to suggest certain things and certainly the media and other sources should be regarded with a critical eye. But I do object to all refugees being painted with the broad brush of 'terrorist'...

sonnetpete, do you think all the Muslims inhabiting Tower Hamlets (for instance) are terrorists?

Well I actually agree with you, of course they are not.
Next question, if you were a British soldier in uniform would you walk through Tower Hamlets?, bearing in mind that a soldier in uniform was attacked there and the army has since instructed all service personnel not to wear their uniform in the area.

Can I answer that....surely if you are a soldier you do as instructed.
Sorry, but this thread has get out of control. I think by now all parties who have contributed have made their positions quite clear...perhaps its time to put it to bed.
Bisdu....happily sitting on the fence.....but only so as not to offend anyone...I do have an opinion, but nothing I've heard will change it

To answer your question specifically : If I was a British soldier and was ordered not to wear uniform in an area, obviously I'd obey an order.
But I have a follow up question. Does this attack date back to 2012? The only reference I can find to an attack in Tower Hamlets was reported on the BNP website in September that year. According to their report, the soldier was in plain clothes but carrying a military bag. Is this the attack you mean? Interestingly, the day after the Lee Rigby attack in 2013, David Cameron tore up an order banning troops from wearing their uniform in public which had been issued the previous day...

I'm so dismayed that anyone would think it's ok to deliberately sink a boat full of people. Think I've said this before but of course there's going to be some bad apples amongst them all but do you really think it's an acceptable option to try and kill them all just to get to some potentially bad few? That would just fuel the hatred towards the West even more and what about all the potential terrorists that are already citizens of Europe and living in our cities? What should we do? Send everyone who looks like an Arab somewhere else? To counter hate with hate is just bringing us down to their level
