To Stop Attacks Focus Must be Homeland Security

Guardian UK: So long as the struggle against terrorism is conceived as a war that can be won by military means, it is doomed to fail. Success will only come from isolating the terrorists and denying them support, funds and recruits" AND by beefing up homeland security & intelligence. Soto from Left Coaster (via Kos): Lastly, as Blair oversees the carnage and anger in his country, he may want to ask his good buddy Bush why his administration crippled Blair's domestic anti-terror efforts to track down and stop Al Qaeda cells inside the UK by exposing a known Al Qaeda asset at a time when the Brits were very close to nailing a ring of Al Qaeda cells inside the country? (On 2 August, the Bush administration blew the cover of UK double agent Muhammad Naeem Noor Khan) With today's tragedy in front of them, don't you think that UK intelligence would have wanted to finish their work last fall in smashing London's Al Qaeda cells before the Bush Administration blew a covert operation just so Bush could be reelected?
