Also Muslim leaders are concerned about a shoot to kill policy.
Maybe they should express a bit more concern about a bomb to kill policy...

Deepthought - I'm sick to death of people like yourself... This guy was a known suspect that the police were actually following. They gave a warning & he ran - go figure.

I think they've already done that, many times.

They were actually following him?
If so, they were particularly inept to have allowed him to get onto a train in the 1st place.

errrr - he ran?
Look - we don't know the details (probably never will) But these people who stand up for the rights of terrorists make me soooooo mad.

What have they done to stop radical Islamic preachers from preaching hatred and violence against the West? Sure, they pay lip service in order to help prevent a backlash against Muslims, but they could be doing a lot more if they are sincere...

Perhaps also we should ask ourselves what the situation would have been in a middle eastern country, and are we in regard to many other countries; in fact not relatively soft ?

I don't think there's room for niceties with potential suicide bombers. Under the current circumstances, running away from the police just isn't a good idea.
You are a potential suicide bomber, as am I, as is everybody else on here. Are you saying that you should be shot dead at the discretion of a police officer for having the potential to do something?

As for the wires protruding from his clothes? Would these be the same eye witnesses who saw a "man with wires protruding from his clothes running amok in a London hospital"?

They're probably not as practised at killing people efficiently as the KGB or the Stasi.

Perhaps they could not shoot earlier because there was a possibility of killing civilians...you'll try to spin anything against the West won't you? Communism failed - get over it.

Doh.
He's a suspected suicide bomber.
The police are following him (or so you claim).

What do you think is the place they should concentrate on preventing him getting to?

Instead he's apparently able to outrun them and get onto a train.


I'm not standing up for the rights of terrorists - I'm standing up for everyone's rights. If the security forces are allowed to do this, it erodes everyone's rights.

The people who carry out these attacks are barbaric. We shouldn't have to descend to their level in order to defeat them.

So despite various views, all equally valid as opinions, does anybody really feel there is a solution to this situation as opposed to fencing with opinions ?

Can't argue with that one.
