#1 "Will it take a successful jihad attack of this kind for Western officials to wake up and do what they must do in order to guarantee the security of the societies they have been entrusted with protecting?"

B-b-but.........

That would be so,...(ulp)....AMERICAN...

#2 Of course, how MultiCulti - don't notice the obvious link. There is no 400 lb gorilla sitting there in front of you. Nope. No way.

Many knew these cretins were going "active". Many knew they were planning something. And some knew what. Cowards or Symps? Does it really matter, in the end? Really? No. Moussaoui went to SuperMax for precisely this.

Until some political leader has the stones to publicly place the blame on Islam, not "radicals" or any other lame euphemism, we cannot take the next step: demand reform of Islam or make it clear they now will receive common blame. Islam is a pestilence on Mankind. It has no saving grace. It is a prime source of misery and violence and hate and misogyny and brutality and intolerance in the world. Payback time. I got your intolerance right here. It should have been killed in the cradle - and nothing has changed in the last 1400 years except it is more widespread.

And, to give full "credit" where due, I despise all public officials who haven't the guts or moral compass to tell the truth, just as I would anyone I met on the street. That they have public responsibilities does not excuse them, it makes their cowardice 10x worse.

The MSM are the apologists and excusers for both.

#3 You should listen to the Beeb on Beslan - always worth a chortle at the PC brigade: no mention of Muslim/Islamist perpetration - simply 'armed men', 'armed gang', 'Chechen separatists' - total denial.

#4 also "hostage takers".

Quite a peculiar term by the BBC.. I would think that men who kidnap and kill children would qualify as "terrorists".

#5 john, let's waylay the BBC Editors, relieve them of their valuables, and tell them we're just innocent money-takers, not robbers. :)

#6 I suspect that the police chief deliberately avoided mentioning islam for legal reasons, not blind ignorance. If he started spouting off about islam, he'd be feeding their defense teams ammo for their widely anticipated "poor oppressed misunderstood victoms of racism" defense.
