I HAD a grim premonition when I wrote my last letter ("Less dithering"), which appeared in Wednesday's Press regarding an Armada on English soil.
However, I still feel the real problem behind terrorism is poverty.
Poverty through religion; poverty through lack of food; poverty through education. Behind these acts is usually the despot dictator's iron rule, sanitising violent behaviour.
In Afghanistan, Iraq and Africa, a more positive United Nations is the only true way to world peace.
