Default Re: Can you call it \'terrorism\' if no one is scared?

That's an interesting point. All our judgements of risk are often over- or underestimated to some degree. We all know cars are more dangerous places than planes, yet getting in a car is less stressful than a plane journey, no?

Maybe Brits have assimilated a more realistic level of actual risk than those unused to this sort of ideologised criminal activity.


I like 'deluded fantasists' is quite a good term, but 'brainwashed puppets' and 'self-publicists' are quite good too.
