Hopefully (assuming they are guilty regardless of whether they are working for Iran) they will be put to justice. But I do worry a successful attack like this much similar to 9/11 will encourage us to make poor decisions abroad and waste extortionate amounts of money helping the US fight a dubious war in the Middle East, that might (if a refugee crisis does result from this) result in our country being less safe anyway for British citizens and Jews.
Throw them in the pit, then do the same for all the israili spies too.
