...Catholics were to blame." Says Doyle: "This is not a war between the West and Islam - it is between those who want to live normally and peacefully and those who don't." Yet no matter how many call for British Islam to rid itself of the ideologists of hate, the truth remains that few yet know why some of their youngsters feel the way they do. "There's definitely something about the younger generation," says Ahmed, the Leeds taxi driver. "They feel under attack, and I don't know why." And while that sense of victimization continues, there will always...
...repeatedly stating he would do the very same thing again if he got the chance. Bouyeri said that in his worldview, there is a "law that instructs me to chop off the head of anyone who insults Allah and the Prophet." He stressed he did not hate Van Gogh, who he described as a man driven by conviction, though the filmmaker infuriated many Muslims with his controversial film Submission which linked the abuse of Muslim women to Koranic verse.

"Often we need attacks to get serious," says Stefano Dambruoso, Italy's top antiterrorism magistrate until last year. Until recently, the British were notoriously indulgent of hate-spewing imams and the fanatics who worshipped at their mosques. "It took years to convince the British authorities that they had a significant homegrown Islamic threat," says a recently retired FBI counterterrorism official. "I remember being there in 1999, and one of our guys joked, 'If you don't start...
Stoicism? Sure. It's a characteristic of an island where weather is a verb, where in a tiny, crowded place, patience is necessary. Americans, used to an entire continent of limitless potential, tend to have less need for stoicism. If they hate where they live, they often move somewhere else. If Brits move more than a few hundred miles, they're in the sea. But it seems to me we need both approaches in a war on terrorism. We need to fight back militarily when appropriate. We need boldness and aggression. But we also need to steel ourselves for casualties...
