  We (the UK, and the West) have made many policy errors in the Middle East going back to the First Word War and before.
  
  I don't see that justifies what some in the ISIS leadership are urging their followers to do, i.e. attack civilians in the West in their daily lives in situations such as that in Nice:
  
  “The tiniest action you do in the heart of their land is dearer to us than the biggest action by us … There are no innocents in the heart of the lands of the crusaders.”
  
  He encouraged lone wolf attacks during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which starts early in June, “to win the great award of martyrdom”.
  
  We may have lived in fear at one time of being blown up in an IRA bombing, but no-one ever thought an IRA sympathiser would pull a knife on a civilian in the street, or a train, or drive a truck at a crowd on a promenade, or gun down people at a rock concert.
  
  Be in no doubt, ISIS are actively trying to secure nuclear material and would not hesitate to use it on a western city - maybe London.
