Just because I loathe the terrorists who bomb to spread fear and for revenge does not mean I supported the war, or the foreign policies of my own country, or the US. But being against the invasion of Iraq does not mean I was or am in favour of the regime of Saddam Hussein, nor does it mean I am unBritish, to appropriate a vile Americanism. No excuse for taking innocent lives is valid. None. Not from western countries, not from eastern. To say that we 'brought it on ourselves' is as wrong and objectionable as to say the Iraqis brought death and distruction on themselves. People need to stop seeing this in blanket for/against terms and start looking at it in the light of the complexities of the real world. It is possible to be against the invasion of Iraq and against the terrorists, you know.
