I've said 3 or 4 times that I don't think it was the best choice - I just also don't think it was anything that hasn't been done before in other books (entire books) by ex-military personnel - and I accept that writing about it is his choice and shouldn't be deterred by terror threats. No one should be stifled by terror threats. We don't give in to threats of terror - this is fundamental stuff.
I'd also counter that saying anything "is all one person's fault" is just as daft as saying anyone is "never in the wrong". Fault can lie in multiple places and be for multiple reasons that work in combination. I know that those who like to feast on outrage prefer to have a target in sight and point the finger squarely at that target, but it's not a reasonable or rational stance. Take the whole issue of the Royals, for example.
What's the problem with the royal family?
Rational thinking: "Oh well it's lots of things... the inherently flawed concept of hereditary rule, centuries and generations of privilege that affect all of them, clear interpersonal issues in the family going back generations, being constantly under a microscope and the pressure that must bring, being completely removed from anything resembling a normal life... the list goes on!"
Irrational thinking: "HARRY!!! And that awful Markle woman what controls all of his thinking!"
