Oh agreed. This week it was your lot, next week it will be our careless talk costing lives. All intelligence bods ought to know better and be better than this

But someone from the intelligence services had to leak it to the press in the first place - that's the point that's mightily hacking-off people this side of the Pond and La Manche

The point is, we don't know. EWF and his wife don't know either. I'll bet this is costing them and a lot of the other 23 million sleepless nights. And that, in and of itself, is heart-sickeningly cruel and morally abhorent.

Like this guy? You're right, we should have made him stay in Syria so he couldn't have saved lives on Monday night.

As the Second Person of the Trinity He is omnipresent. As The Incarnatiin He was not. That much is obvious surely: He didn't appear in every single location in the world!

Yes, American and French intelligence agencies were given the info but then apparently leaked it to the press; as a result, our chaps have stopped sharing intel with your chaps, which isn't good for either country....

And release of info by the US intelligence community about the Manchester bombing

So, those of you advocating military action against the 'host nation ', what now? This guy's family came from Libya, so how about we invade Libya - again. Because that worked out so well last time...

#Britishthreatlevels is the funniest and most British response ever

Um...no. We defeated the IRA by fighting them to a stalemate...but then we had to <gasp> [warning: hand-wringing, hankie-squeezing, EU-neutered lily-livered liberal moment] TALK to them and invite them into government. So it was a combo of butt-kicking conservative military action and wimpy...

You're conflating issues there in the last paragraph. Yes, Jesus was fully God (I said That, didn't I?). But He wasn't in the same way He was prior to the Incarnation, or indeed after it. For example, He wasn't omnipresent and therefore it is reasonable to conclude that He wasn't omniscient...

We were in the EU then too.

Nope, because we defeated the IRA. Just not all Irish terrorism and in any event terrorism reared its head elsewhere.

After it was leaked by US and French officials

But you voted for them. And your President just visited Saudi, the home of Al-Qaeda and covert backer of ISIS. As did, shamefully, our Prime Minister recently

Oh and, BTW, we didn't invite the perp into the country: he was born and raised in the very city he bombed. So let's slay that particular straw man whilst we're at it.

Then you misunderstand what the statement means: it doesn't mean fatalism, toleration or resignation but, rather, a sober assessment of reality. It is best summed up by the uniquely British expression "Keep calm and carry on". I grew up in a military town during the height of the IRA's terror...

So why didn't you declare war on Saudi Arabia after 9/11?

How? Whom do you declare war on? Which country so you attack? And so on...

Then explain, pray tell, what your grand scheme for the elimination of terrorism looks like. Cos it ain't going so well at the moment...
