Funnily enough the US too violated lots of rights as part of increased security and went and overran two nations in response to the (real or perceived) threat. The US has not seen any further homeland terror after that.
and you seriously think this is _because_ of the US's actions? no logic there, really - after all, the US didn't see much homeland terror before 9/11 either, despite not invading countries.
pretty much every commentator (and an increasing chunk of US and UK population) believes that the US and UK actions have increased their risk - to claim that the risk of homeland terror has _reduced_ is absurd. the UK bombs last year were certainly a result of the UK action in afghanistan and iraq.
