Airlines

[vicki2]

Yesterday really unnerved me especially since I've got to make a UK/US trip soon. What was most frightening is that the people arrested were UK nationals with citizenship and proper papers. The cells of fundamentalists here in the UK seems much worse than the US>

Is the UK paying for being too liberal in immigration?

It's not so much liberal in immigration, as much as the UK hasn't really got around to addressing the hate preachers until recently. Too little too late.

Also, I suspect that the UK may have a more sizable percentage of Muslims compared to the USA, making it possibly more of an issue.

Even though the US would be the primary terrorist target, the UK is right up there in terms of being a prime target for attacks and I think the airlines are behaving accordingly.
