Having lived in Iraq, and worked in both Pakistan and Yemen in the last decade with workers and union activists seeking improvements in their situation, these are caring people whose countries have been savaged directly or indirectly through western intervention. The chart says so much. I grieve for those who died in the UK and for their families, but the incidence is still tiny compared to the countries in the chart. I share an apartment with my son in Chicago and checked for homicides last year - 762 recorded - one city. Your blog is important to steer the conversation to these bigger issues that must be remediated and young people in all countries given the opportunities for decent employment, income and lives. Unless this happens I fear we will continue to see these incidents of terror, while the broader institutional terror of rampant inequality is taken as a given. <br />Laurie Clementsnoreply@blogger.com
