Laugh or Cry

On reading that MI5 is publishing its terrorist threat assessment online I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. US figures show terror attacks to be at a 30-year low and yet MI5 is advising business to plan for the worst. Recommendations include carrying out risk assessments and having locks on windows and doors, both of which are sensible actions for any business premises regardless. It then gets a bit more scary, advising the use of anti-shatter film on windows and bomb blast net curtains. One tip is to keep gardens free from shrubbery, from which I can only assume that Al Qaeda has joined forces with The Knights Who Say Ni!
