UK - Al-Qaeda 'increased threat to UK'

And of course the war in Iraq is to blame and thereby extension, the US. The BBC reports.

The threat to the UK from al-Qaeda is likely to have increased and the Iraq war has provided a boost to extremist groups, a committee of MPs has found.

The terror network posed "an extremely serious and brutal threat" to the UK, the latest Foreign Affairs Committee report into the "war on terror" found.

Tackling this threat would become more difficult in the future, it concluded.

One reason was propaganda coming from Iraq which is a crucial training ground for international terrorists, it said.


There is no doubt that al Qaeda is using Iraq as a recruiting tool. But, if it wasn't Iraq it would be something else. al Qaeda's beef isn't Iraq, it's our infidel existence they hate. Iraq is merely a convient tool for them.

Many people are unaware of the failed Muslim terror attack on the Eiffel Tower in 1994 - seven years before 9-11 and long before Iraq or Afghanistan.

Likewise, few are aware of the Muslim terror plot to fly a plane into Parliament on 9/11 - before Iraq and Afghanistan.

And Britain is doing little to stop al Qaeda from recruiting here in the UK. See here.
