Its really easier than we try to make it sometimes. These people are just simply fundamentalist nuts. No matter what you do, you are going to piss them off somehow, whether you try to understand them and tailor your policy to thier desires, live your life ignoring them, or actively try to stomp them out makes no difference to them.
This attack was against Great Briton or course, but how many Turks died in this? People whom we would think the terrorist see themselves more alligned with, being that they are generally the same religion and democratically prevented us from launching a northern offensive on iraq (via parliment).
I'm sure the innocent will be called "martyrs", a better term than "collateral damage", they've done it before. It reminds me a lot of the fundamentalist in the U.S. They have a tendancy to shoot themselves in the foot all the time.
