It's sickening to see how UK government is tolerating these so called good for nothing British Pakistanis who, surprising are far more "radicalized" than any pure Pakistani I have met. Those of us who have come to the UK on visas are students or working are busy with are own concerns such as study or work, but these "British Pakistanis" don't do anything, sitting on state benefits and act "Gangsta Talibans". And the end result? People like me have to bear tighter UK Immigration Laws because of these people. Throw these benefit seekers out so hard working people are less intimidated at the Immigration desk at Heathrow! I am a Pakistani student, came here last year.

Terrorists can use this to their advantage. But not just could terrorists use it, but ANYONE with bad intentions can use this mapping/photo to their advantage. I have recently been exploring Google Earth, and I find it very disturbing that you can go almost anywhere in the world and see everything. I have talked to numerous people about Google Earth and they all have said it makes them very uncomfortable because anyone can get online and view where they live. Google is invading privacy and something needs to be done about it. Despite all the securities, just using these map/photographs terrorists and/or criminals can still zoom and pan and surely find a weak spot for their "intended=potential target".

Do they not know what the word "guarantee" means? Do they not realize the kind of Big Brother surveillance that would be required to preclude the possibility of such an attack? Face it, freedom necessarily implies a certain degree of insecurity. Are people really surprised that the government can't guarantee that no terrorist attacks will take place?
