The explosion of terrorists activities by Islamic radicals in north America, Europe and Asia in the 21st century evoked dismay, sadness and anger among the world community and the political leaders. Terrorism was almost continually front – page news and the subject of much discussion amongst politicians in the United Kingdom (UK). Moreover, Prime Minister Tony Blair’s words: “…we will not rest until this evil is driven from our world…” proved that the UK became a zone of fighting with international terrorism, even though it had connections to these strands well before these attacks.
