Radical Atmosphere
In the months following the July 7, 2005, attack that killed 52 people and injured hundreds more, the British government was at pains to deny allegations that Britain was targeted by homegrown, al-Qaeda-affiliated terrorists because of its Middle East foreign policy.

While it is clear that communal antagonism plays a significant role in shaping the behaviour of killers within both the loyalist and republican paramilitary groups, the fact that both s…
