I HAVE seen no suggestion that the slaughter of 8,000 Muslim men and boys by Christian Serbs under the aegis of the United Nations was a factor motivating those who recently killed more than 50 people in London.

Surely it must have been so? As the Good Book puts it (1 Sam. 29:5) Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands."
