According to Sifaoui [French Journalist investigating Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations -- panikowsky], it has long been recognised by the British Islamists, by the British government and by UK intelligence agencies [sic! - panikowsky], that as long as Britain guarantees a degree of freedom to the likes of Hassan Butt [a loudmouth pro-terrorist Islamist], the terrorist strikes will continue to be planned within the borders of the UK but will not occur here [underline is mine -- panikowsky]. Ironically, then, the presence of vocal and active Islamist terrorist sympathisers in the UK actually makes British people safer, while the full brunt of British-based terrorist plotting is suffered by people in other countries.
Campbell then tries this thesis out on Omar Bakri, leader of al-Muhajiroun, one of the most extreme Islamist groups in the UK, who confirms it:
He tells me the story of the companions of the prophet Muhammad who, when travelling to Abyssinia, were given protection and hospitality by that nation. The result of this generosity is the Koranic notion of covenant, namely that as a Muslim it is de rigueur not to attack the inhabitants of any country in which one finds oneself living safely. This, according to Bakri, makes it unlikely that British-based Muslims will carry out operations in the UK itself.
Пайпс затем добавляет от себя: To the extent the allowing of Islamists and terrorists safe haven on British soil is a conscious decision to keep the UK safe at the expense of others, this is an immoral and despicable policy that must be changed immediately.
Англия в своем блеске. Мерзость.

"Когда я на почте служил ямщиком", и писал систему как раз для международной почты, изучил примерную технологию этого дела. Посылки медленно и печально отправляются в Одессу, где ждут корабля. Корабль отправляется раз в месяц-два, идёт через Румынию, Грецию, чего-то ещё, везде стоит пару недель, разгружается-загружается. Пока доходит до Хайфы, пока в Хайфе контейнеры разгрузят, пока рассортируют по городам... Никто не торопится. ;-)
Причём тариф на авиа и не-авиа обычную почту один. Но им, видать, синюю нашлёпку лень присобачить.
