Le gouvernement doit reconnaître que sa lenteur à admettre notre responsabilité et notre manque de fermeté à l'égard des terroristes a porté atteinte à la réputation du pays auprès de nos alliés.

The government must accept the fact that its belated acceptance of our culpability as a soft touch for terrorists will not erase the hurt that the government has caused the country's reputation among our allies by its previous inaction.
