ah.
i tried to keep little 'quoties' around both it and 'innocent' every time i used them.
from the original post, we make the assumption that we are viewing from the terrorist perspective, from which it appears that the UK has committed a crime, and so the question is, when the UK government commits a crime, who is guilty?
the original post implied that the guilty parties consisted of tony blair, the queen, etc.
but if the government is the people, and the government committed a crime, then the people committed a crime.
