Title – Britain: Why no travel advisory?

This article was discovered by accident as the paper was used to wrap a gift, so although the scan clearly shows the effect of being used as wrapping paper for a year before it was discovered, the article is as relevant today as it was in 2005. It reads:
A man (non-white) who, the British police had reason to believe could be a suicide bomber was shot in the head as ordered by a police chief in London. After the killing the police issued a statement that they had established he was not a terrorist. That is all not one word of remorse. They have gone further and have confirmed that they will continue to shoot in the head anybody they suspect to be a suicide bomber.

Why shoot in the head? It is because it is only by shooting in the head that the victim’s hands could be instantly immobilised and prevented from setting off the bomb. There cannot be any other reason. That being the case it is obvious that instructions have been issued not to attempt to arrest because the suicide bomber will set off the bomb as soon as it is clear to him that his is going to be arrested. That is the reason why the order has been given to kill first and if it is an innocent man issue a statement that the police have established that the man is not a terrorist.
This procedure is to be carried out only after visually establishing that the victim is not an Englishman in spite of the fact that there are many Muslims who could pass off as Englishmen in a crowd. Britain should know that no instrument has so far been developed to detect from a distance a person with sufficient explosives for a bomb concealed in his suicide jacket developed by the friends of the British, the LTTE. Even if an instrument was invented to detect the slightest amount of explosives then every man carrying a box of matches, would be at risk of being shot in the head. The research will have to include the detection of plastic and all other types of explosives. Why not ask your friends the LTTE the type of explosives they use? That probably is what Al-Queda is using. Did the Al-Queda reinvent the wheel and develop the suicide jacket themselves or did they get it from their friends the LTTE. Can we believe that they have no communications with each other?
In view of what the police have done it is the duty of our government to issue a travel advisory as regards Britain so that those who go there know the risks they are taking.
It is now clear that paranoia has gripped the police and that is the first sign of their breakdown. Once the police breakdown the security of the entire nation gets undermined.
See how easily the Al-Queda is doing this? Before it gets to the point where the situation cannot be reversed, wouldn’t it be best to hold immediate “PEACE TALKS” with Al-Queda?
Beyond The Blue does not endorse the sentiments in this letter to the editor of 'The Island' newspaper in Sri Lanka, but rather uses it as a clear demonstration of the opinions of people from other parts of the world have of the UK and the current political climate in the west and Britain in general.
For the sake of clarity the LTTE is the 'Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam' commonly referred to as the 'Tamil Tigers' who are in conflict with the Sri Lankan government for control of the north and east of this island where they hope to establish an independent state.
It is very important that we start to understand and appreciate the views of citizens from other countries around the world and the impression they have of us, both when we travel and when we stay at home and work in our own environment. Beyond The Blue - Safe Gap Year run Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety and Awareness workshops for those people travelling for the first time and provide them with cultural awareness training as well as personal safety training, to help individuals better understand the parts of the world they are visiting. For people working in the UK we can help through our Conflict Management and Resolution Training (CMR) and the work we do as Consultants in the Security Industry.
