IF, as a recent correspondent suggests, Barrie Horne was a man of principle (Letters, November 7) why did those principles lead him to threaten the lives of people by acts of arson? Some of Mr Horne's sympathisers have said they might act in revenge. Whatever the cause, does this not all sound like the language and actions of terrorists?
