The UK's new threat came when they started meddling in middle eastern countries, sponsoring terrorism and subversion as part of geopolitical games. Those threats then became hightened and came to fruition after the UK commited war crimes through illegal invasions,torture and rape in Iraq and Afghanistan. The UK will always face threats, whilst it continues to act contrary to international law and any notion of morality and continues to backslide to its colonial brutality days. Those threats will undoubtedly come to fruition, through various mechanisms, including but not limited to ex-prisoners If the UK wants to remove threats, then it needs to stop acting as a rogue state, driven by geopolitical games initiated by a colonial reinforced institution, which acts as an elite alongside the financial elite as its terrorist wing. The UK has distilled down to an institutional mafia with limited military muscle, servicing an institutional and financial elite, much like the US has. Indeed the US can blame some of its toubles on the UK's manipulations, as it was maniipulated in 'reverse Poodle mode' through the false carefully crafted lies regarding Iraq, that eminated from the UK's colonial organisation instruments, as part if its geopolitical strategy. Indeed whilst the US recieves, quite rightly the brunt of the blame for a world, where inetrnational law is worked around by politics, rather like a bent lawyer acting for the mafia so that courts are ignored through political and physical threats. The UK is there as one of the chief instigators. So the UK will always receive newer threats, but these will all be a part and continuation of the original new threat, which came about because their institution, cannot break with its colonial past, even though it has no military to maintain that past. So it resorts to illegal activities, like terrorism and subversion. Like all criminals, they are apt to create a status beyond their capabilities, by using illegal means.

Really UK was trying to maintain the position of being second to USA. Now they are far behind Israel. And all three are lost in space.

Wow - such fear, such ignorance. It appears that Muslims really have replaced the Jews as the scapgoats for all of the worlds ills. On another point the new UK coalition government is trying to correct the mess that the last Blair / Brown government created both domestically and internationally. As far as armed conflict is concerned the UK is out of Iraq (after a little push from Iranian aided groups and a little slap from Iran directly re the sailor capture incident), and they are desparatly looking for a way out of Afghanistan. They cannot just leave otherwise the lives of the armed forces personnel lost will be seen to have been wasted - something that the government would not survive. This has not been helped by the North Korean / old Soviet style propoganda and glorification the Blair / Brown government introduced re the armed forces. Every returning soldier is not a 'veteran' anymore, they are now 'Heros' of the state. This has even extended to schools (remember the UK is one of the few countries that still trains and deploys child soldiers) where children are told they will be Heros / get to do great things / shape history / make a life for themselves and thier families, etc. A decade of this level of propoganda can not be turned on its head overnight. It was nice to see Tony Blair get pelted with eggs at his recent book signing event - shows that not everyone has been taken in by the lies.

Pure propaganda everybody knows especially in the intelligence agencies that British intelligence recruits and runs Muslim terrorist organisations and networks to fight there proxy wars mainly in Bosnia and Chechnya including those that have conspired to commit terrorist attacks against the US. Abu Qatada the Jordanian cleric who is connected to both the millennium bomb plot and 9/11 and helps recruit and make fund raising videos for Chechen militants since 97 was on the payroll of MI6, the London bomber mastermind fought for British intelligence in Bosnia and Kosovo from where he used contact there to pull of the 7/7 attack and other senior terror individuals like Babar Ahmad who conspired with a US Muslim sailor official to who set Ahmad information about US Navy ships stationed in the Mid East and tried to set up a Chechen training camp in the US with Finsbury park mosque preacher Abu Hamza who Britain pressuring the European Court of Human Rights to rule against their extradition to the US.
