So the IRA were "pandered to and adored" but oh wait... hmmmm... they barely exist any more, the situation with N.I. while it still exists is very much under control. No one fears "Irish terrorists" on British streets. They weren't wiped out with bombs or bullets so... where did they go?

Meanwhile, we repeatedly try to show our strength and "crush Islamic terrorism" - desperate not to "pander to them" - and, oh look, it keeps getting worse, and worse, every time we do it.

It feels like people are adverse to tackling terrorism with diplomacy, purely on principle. Not a care for what actually might reduce the number of attacks and save lives and eventually put an end to it all.
