Yes but the world is aware that the top 8 men in the world are in the UK - attacking the financial district in the Capitol is symbolic. |

If thats the goal then Tony must stay there.
When I heard of the surge explosion before the reports of the other explosions I thought it was the French pissed off at London for not getting the Olympics 2012.
Hope they find the people responsible for these explosions.

I wonder why they didn't just bomb the summit then? These people need to be found and made an example of, it's pathetic.

My parents are visiting for a couple of days - they were taken off a train about ten miles out from London, and are now looking at a quiet couple of days in at my flat. I'm only in town for a couple of days - watching the air ambulance come and go, and the helicopters over the city. No problems here.

Al Quaeda are reported as the culprits. What God could endorse this or any other terrorism?
A friend of mine is also currently not responding to calls - was around Russell Square where she went for a job interview. Probably fine but you never know.
They are indeed pathetic and no bunch of fanatical losers will get the better of a society that knows what's fundamentally right from wrong. |

No they haven't. The networks are overloaded, and part of the bandwidth is being held back for emergency services.
(BBC News story about it)

this kind of thing makes me mad and makes me wonder what we can do other than stengthen our attitude towards them. no offence to your comment MikeOwens, but is there nothing else we can do against this kind of scum?
