But they didn't pick someone out of the crowd and kill him for no reason, they eliminated him because at the time they believed him to be a threat.
The police can't win, they have patchy information on a man who could be a terrorist threat.
They kill him and find he's innocent - They get called incompotent.
They let him go and he blows up a train. They get called incompotent.
Based on the information they had at the time, they had a possible threat about to enter the underground, the safety of London passengers was paramount. They needed to make a decision. They didn't make the right one, but I support it.

Raiding an empty house is far better than not raiding one and then it turns out to be a base of operations for several extremists.
Does it really matter if their lead turns out to be false? At least they are making sure they don't miss anything, trying their best to keep people like you safe. But of course, if you think you could do a better job of keeping Britain safe, go right ahead.

Nope, they told me to keep my view's on Israel to myself, but did not stop or tell anyone that had view's saying that Lebanon is getting what it desver's and never mind about the deaths or woman and children.

Usually we afford the respect of not decry the opinions of others as a product of naivity, especially given that at this moment neither you nor your oponents can provide anything undiputably solid to confirm your viewpoint.
We have seen the effects of terrorists here and abroad. Many were saying that it was mere government paranoia until it happened the first time. I definately think that many wish to do a similar attack again, it seems likely given that we are so tolerant of terrorist ideology within the UK and so sympathetic to their discourse.

That is complete rubbish sorry mate but nothing is further from the truth. All our attacks have been in RETALIATION to terrorism, so how could we have brought the terrorist attacks on by our actions??
You fail to see a valid point, I bet you will change your tune if your family were on a plane to the US this morning and had been blown to bits.
It's soo easy to sit there all high and mighty protesting at the government knowing you are righteously sticking up for human rights across the globe - yay!
If the day comes that a terrorist attack has a direct effect on you or your loved ones will you still cry for the terrorists who have been so horribly prosecuted?
I'll answer for you:
"No."
