Just by its very meaning terrorism is just that
(causing terror mentally and physically)
Strangely I think terrorism is losing because unless directly involved im afraid it's like
"oh another attack, what's for dinner"
I remember 9/11 and 7/7; early attacks broadcast live as happened virtually.
Omg what shock they were.
Does this mean terrorism is being defeated by what I would say is the over use of it.
Sort of self imploding as a way of getting attention to their cause whichever that may be or who's doing it.
Sorry for this post if it offends or people are involved but just an observation that I've come to this conclusion.

All part and parcel of living in a big city isn't it?

The whole situation is a sh1tshow administrated by cowards. An age old 'pass the buck' calculation by politicians that makes the inevitable change of policy far harder when it comes.

I'm not apart of the John Lennon, 'imagine' movement everytime the ground is littered with corpses. The inaction on this matter is criminal in my book.

Nothing changes...probably until the parliament building itself comes under attack.

Inaction? How many plots have been prevented?

That's treating the symptom, not the illness. We should be deporting radicals we have evidence on to paid Islamic countries and stripping them of British nationality.

We should be supporting Islamic reformers instead of attacking them.

I wasn't specifying Islamic terror at all.
I was asking whether by the overuse of attacks
Is society pretty much immune to the shock it used to cause. I know Islamic terror is prevelant now it wasn't in the past for us, it was the IRA years ago.
And after a while that seemed overused to Make a point and it is being / has been resolved by talking.
That being said in years to come maybe Islamic terror will be resolved the same way.
