Plus, I kinda bristle at a story that relies almost entirely on unnamed sources who are likely breaking the law in disclosing classified information. One thing that did jump off the page at me, though, was the acknowledgement by the Times reporter of the ties between terror operatives in Britain and Pakistan. So, it's not quite so easy as doing as you suggest and just "shoot at them." Shooting at British citizens probably wouldn't go over so well with one of our best allies in the war on terror.
