I don’t recall that time the IRA seized four airliners and crashed them into buildings in London and Liverpool, killing 3,000 innocent people at once. Violence in Northern Ireland was more disperse, which may have inured Brits to it. And even the islime-inspired bus bombings in London didn’t approach 9/11 in scale.
No, we certainly did not overreact. The Brits may have UNDERreacted, considering the creeping muslimization that has taken place in the last decade.
People in America were upset, many were pi$$ed off, but I didn’t see any “widespread panic” in the U.S. in the aftermath of the Sept. 11th attacks. despite what this limey has to say on the matter.
Bless her heart.:)
Some of us take exception when our homeland is attacked...
aye and she does have a similar look to Camilla she does!!
People in the tri-state area had to be kept out of Ground Zero because residents were all rushing in to help. I saw no panic whatsoever. Is she talking about the closing of the airways? That was a necessary act to take because we didn’t know what was coming next. That the cabinet was taken to a secret location? Well, that’s what contingency plans are for.
I think their three capitals would have done just fine to make the point (and insure each of their three leaders were indeed there at the time)
Looking at photos of her, she has the haggard look of either a vegan or a long-distance runner. She’s a pal of Hillary, btw. Enough said! (I wonder if Hillary was hiding under a bed on 9/11 while Chelsea was “jogging around the World Trade Center” on that fateful day!)
No over reaction. We blew up those buildings on purpose. /sarc
She shore is purty. Hillary can really pick ‘em.
Uglier than Huma.
Yes they seem equally offended ! Not sure she's making any friends on either side of the Atlantic.
Yet another reason not to like her.
Gweneth Paltrow: Criticizing people for being upset about 9/11: I find the English amazing how they got over 7/7. There were no multiple memorials with people sobbing as they would have been in America. There, they are constantly scaring people but at the same time, people think nothing of going to see a therapist.
Note to Brit prof.
1. Take a bath.
2. Brush your teeth.
3. Use deodorant.
4. Mind your own biz.
all the best,

IOW, she's an arrogant a-hole. Sounds about right for a UK academic. Thanks Teotwawki.
Professor Louise Richardson. “ Every little breeze seems to whisper, ‘Blow me professor’.”
Over 4.2 million CCTV cameras in England, almost half a million in London alone.
And don’t get me started on taking away all the guns.
Over reaction my butt.
The Brits have had their noses out of joint ever since we ran them out of The Greatest Country On Earth.
We’ve saved their bacon twice in the last century. And what did we get from them? Alfred Hitchcock and four guys who needed haircuts..
Those pasty faced nancy-boys and their Oxford beasty girls should be kissing photos of our flabby buttocks every night before they retire for much needed beauty sleep.
In 1977, she received a Rotary Scholarship to study in the USA at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA); this forced her take a year out of her course in Ireland, but she has described her time in the US as a totally liberating experience.Wikipedia links back to the Manchester Guardian for that, so suffice it to say she went hardcore left. And of course, she is the author of What Terrorists Want, where she claims that just about every attempt to stop terrorism is an overreaction all the way back to Irelands communistic Easter Rising in 1916.
