We dreamed up 'al-Qaida'. Let's not do it again with 'evil ideology'

Rules that would guide the deportation of alleged terrorist
sympathisers were published by the government last week. It is a key
part of their attempt to deal with the "evil ideology" of Islamism and
its role in inspiring terrorist attacks on our country. But there is
growing unease about whether this response is right or will be
effective in stopping future attacks. There is an even more serious
fear that we might be making the situation worse.
