Wouldn't it be nice if we could all get along

And not blow ourselves and each other up.

Or if people could realise that terrorism is really not very effective for anything other than killing a lot of people.

Brits carry on as normal. We're like that. We start mocking the terrorists. Then we start ignoring them. Yesterday's attempt ranked as slightly more important than The Ashes.

And we still don't really know what they want.

They could probably get a lot more support for their goals if they went about it in a peaceful manner.

Current alert level: mildly ticked off.
