Let's see... Many UK terrorists are Irish, but it's hard to tell
whether or not they are Catholic. Many have a "middle-Eastern"
appearance. Many are male. Are they all adults? Gee, this is hard.
Wait, I've got it! They all have their eyes open! Hmm, no, some of
them might be photographed dead. They're all human, but that doesn't
get us far. I give up.
