[The Iraq war is identified by the dossier as a key cause of young Britons
turning to terrorism. The analysis says: "It seems that a particularly
strong cause of disillusionment among Muslims, including young Muslims, is a
perceived 'double standard' in the foreign policy of western governments, in
particular Britain and the US.
"The perception is that passive 'oppression', as demonstrated in British
foreign policy, eg non-action on Kashmir and Chechnya, has given way to
'active oppression'. The war on terror, and in Iraq and Afghanistan, are all
seen by a section of British Muslims as having been acts against
Islam."--Robert Winnett and David Leppard, "Terror in London: Leaked

[Western nations are not involved in a "war" on terror against people "who
hate us." What we are involved in is a dance of deception led by leaders in
Washington and London who took us to war for reasons they know to be false
and who now compound that deception by hiding behind the rhetoric of a
simplistic struggle against evil. The U.S. media are complicit in this
deception.--James M. Wall, "Dance of

official narrative of 7/7, pointing out its gaps and contradictions. He
concludes that the security and intelligence services, with government
connivance, downplayed the sophistication of the operation and the size and
nature of its support network. Evidence of al-Qa'ida involvement is
suppressed, he says, to deflect awkward questions about how a large terror
network flourished unchecked in Britain for 10 years.--Francis Elliott and
