I think it possible that sarman could be a terrorist. He's so invested in that arab/muslim victimization thing and so reticent to tell us anything about himself when asked what country he is from or whether he is sunni or shiaa that he opens himself up to these thoughts. Also, when provoked, his supposed anti-zionism routine morphs into blatant anti semitism and anti-americanism. His background I suspect is iraqi, perhaps iraqi kurd belonging to that group that got booted out of iraq and into iran. Al Quaeda and/or Iran may have run this british operation or at least encouraged it OR it was just unhappy folk like sarman who after reading over 10,000 posts by nazine decided to act on their own.
I feel bad for sarman and hope he reappears here. Once the arabs/muslims can get over the victimization routine and the israelis can get over dealing with folks who have hurt them in the past, it still is possible for those two people to share that tiny part of the world. I always have hope and hope that sarman is one on the other side who hasnt gone so far in his despair that he would blow up civilians.

The knife at my throat is likely to be that of a homegrown, non-Muslim, American, but even that is statistically unlikely.

And even were the knife at my throat, by some fluke of chance, it wouldn't make the relatively rare chance of being hurt by terrorism, a greater threat to you. The risk to you would remain the same, relatively low, statistically.
