Last weekend I could not ignore more terrorists in action at Glasgow airport and London in the Uk. This is always disturbing enough however I was amazed that the individuals involved work in the National Health Service (NHS) here in the UK. These people were not porters or maintenance workers, no they were trained doctors.
I found it incredible that the job of doctor, the person we have to trust with our well being if not lives can be found to be plotting to terrorise the general public. It also makes you think that terrorism can be found in the most unpredicted places and we can never really let our guard down.
The only slight peace of mind I got from the incidents was how low tech the efforts were. Maybe our intelligence workers are making it difficult for Alcaeda to really put together anything that causes the kind of threat seen in previous atrocities
- I hope so anyway!
Doctors hold a different level of prestige among different communities. We need them to help us get rid of a whole range of maladies ranging from eczema that is just a superficial cracking of skin to breast reduction surgery that involves major risks. These well-qualified professionals are there when there is a need of consultation regarding the use of meridia or even a trivial matter of rooting out that whitehead on the cheek. They also come into play to get the females affected by hair loss in women to take them out of the agony by seemliest hair transplant solution.
