Living in London in the 80's

bomb strikes on Harrods, mortar attacks on Downing Street etc was pretty day to day.

There's always one bunch of loonies out to kill everyone.

The sad thing is is that terrorists never learn. Whether it's Bader Meihhoff, the IRA or IS, they keep killing and they never really achieve anything.

As some wise bloke once said, the definition of madness is repeating the same thing time and time again and expecting a different result.

So it goes on.
