"Disapproval of the freedom of the West"
So. Two failed terrorist plots within a week. A packed nightclub on a Friday night and a busy airport full of holiday-makers. Not very pointed as a political statement, and both failed to hurt anyone but the terrorists.
The question that provides the puzzle is, why? They didn't attack the Houses of Parliament or a major political institution or any national political figures. They intended to kill thousands of people in a nightclub and an airport, and it is beginning to look increasingly as though Islamic terrorism in Britain seems now to be provoked by disapproval of the Western lifestyle. Earlier, equally inept, Keystone Terrorists, who were apprehended even before they had managed to assemble their bombs, had been secretly recorded as wishing to bomb a nightclub to punish "the slags" (sluts) dancing and drinking the night away in stiletto heels and mini-dresses.
Disapproval of the freedom of the West, in which they had so eagerly sought jobs, seems to be the motivator. Punish the slags. Punish families for going away to foreign shores, intending to loll on sunny beaches in little bikinis sipping rum punches.
