Terrorists, often being psychopaths or morons, fail to appreciate that the government values “Critical Infrastrucutre” above all. UK gov cost/benefits “acceptable losses” to keep Underground running. Panties more twisted by, say, track down for >1hr than 500 deaths. Track = ++£.

Terrorists mistakenly target people, thinking they can intimidate the electorate. But taking down sections of the power grid, even if no one killed would get immediate political results.

PIRA took ages to learn this, only hit the jackpot when the started bombing the City. Jihadis are not so smart. They actually believe Western propaganda that our citizens are important to our democracy and so attack the people.
