UK don"t take terrorism seriously
by Nina Gotzmannova


United Kingdom doesn't take the problem of terrorism seriously enough. Or that is the result of the words of Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah. He spoke in an interview with the BBC on Monday and revealed some interesting information and opinions. He also hinted that UK had information about the terroristic attack in 2005 but the government just didn't care. According to King Abdullah, Saudi Arabia sent information about potential terrorist attacks. To their surprise no action was taken and the London metro was hit by dangerous invaders. King Abdullah directly accused government of failing to protect the country and the world against terrorism. He also believes that the information provided by Saudi Arabia was so relevant that the attack in 2005 shouldn't happen. But the opposite side says something else. The report from Intelligence and Security Committee in May 2006 said that the information from Saudi Arabia was not essential. The reason is that the data was simply not detailed enough to use it. It was too general and British security forces received lot of similar information that time. They didn't investigate anything from the Saudi source, because it was so general. King Abdullah of course denied that his info was not relevant and blames Great Britain and other large countries of not handling the danger of terrorism properly. Maybe he is right and world is still deaf, blind and dumb to this risks. Or maybe he is wrong and the world is taking enough care. But why still are so many religious and absurd deadly attacks all over the world?
