How much of conclusive evidence do you have that it is infact the Islamic extremists ( and them alone) who are behind the 9/11 attacks and the london bombings? You often use the phrase 'war on terror'. What is your threshold for declaring 'war on terror' against a nation, group etc? i.e is it based on proof ' on balance of probabilities' or 'beyond a reasonable doubt'?

Secondly what is Britain's foreign policy and stand with regard to finding a peaceful solution for Palestine?
