There's always exception Eric, and there's a saying about such instances.
I notice you sourced it from the Daily Mail. Interesting that you didn't
link to their lead article:

But it is Sir Richard's views of the situation in Iraq that will enrage
Downing Street.
He says clearly we shoud "get ourselves out sometime soon because our
presence exacerbates the security problems."
"We are in a Muslim country and Muslims' views of foreigners in their
country are quite clear."
As a foreigner, you can be welcomed by being invited in a country, but we
weren't invited certainly by those in Iraq at the time.
"The military campaign we fought in 2003 effectively kicked the door in.
Whatever consent we may have had in the first place, may have turned to
tolerance and has largely turned to intolerance."
"That is a fact. I don't say that the difficulties we are experiencing round
the world are caused by our presence in Iraq but undoubtedly our presence in
Iraq exacerbates them."

Read the article and you'll find no mention of the war in Iraq. Instead
you'll find that the banker's son who wanted to kill people in banks "was
rejected from jobs with two High Street banks." You'll also find that he
had "converted to Islam after a family visit to the disputed territory of
Kashmir." You find friends of the family saying the would-be terrorist
"had been brainwashed by extremists."
Man admits terror plot to blow up Wall St amid 'dirty bomb' revelation
By BEN TAYLOR and COLIN FERNANDEZ
A British Muslim terrorist mastermind faces life in jail after he admitted
plotting a radioactive 'dirty bomb' attack in the UK and a string of
devastating atrocities in the USA.
Dhiren Barot, 34, planned to kill "as many innocent people as possible" by
blowing up some of the world's largest financial institutions including
the New York Stock Exchange, the International Monetary Fund and the World
Bank.
In the UK, the banker's son - who was brought up in London as a Hindu -
plotted to detonate a radioactive bomb and blow up buildings by packing
stretch limousines with gas cylinders in underground car parks.
The unprecedented and extraordinary attack was dubbed the 'Gas Limo
project' and was designed to cause "injury, fear, terror or chaos" for
hundreds of Britons.
