Once again I
turn on my television to scenes of yet another terrorist atrocity in Belgium,
but I was not surprised as sadly this sort of attack is becoming the norm. On
several occasions I have been at Manchester airport handing in my baggage and
(with a soldier’s mind) thought how easy it would be for someone to walk into
the line behind me with a bomb in a suitcase, I have even mentioned it to my
wife, who `shushed me`, thinking it was just me being paranoid. The big weapon
in the terrorist’s arsenal is the use of `Political correctness`, the majority
of the general public might think that someone or their bags look suspicious,
but they would be more fearful of the police accusing them of Racism than
actually being blown to pieces, or missing out on their holiday and having a
black mark on their record especially if they have a good job. Yes, we need to
be ever vigilant and have robust security measures in place but we also need a
major rethink of how Religion can be used by our enemies, the old saying “You
reap what you sow” is very apt at the moment and today's mass murder is just
another seed in the forthcoming harvest.
