bombing of 5 subwaystations and 3 busses

Jeroen,
Just got of the phone with friends in Manchester and London. 45 dead and over 1000 injured per SKY NEWS. It is a sad day in the UK one day after winning the Olympic bid for 2012. I had a office in the UK for 14 years. Today is their 911.

man, that sucks....just a matter of time before "something" happened.....my wife, her mom and sister are going to London in Dec, they are pretty nervous now as am I.....
3 blasts underground and one on a bus. london is shut down. the horror.

my deepest sympathies to those lost and hurt... this is sad.
Very sad. My prayers go out to all people hurt and to the families of the people killed. It will be interesting to see the British response and how greater Europe reacts to this senseless act.
wait until it happens in nyc, the time is coming.
I get the feeling we will cross the political line here soon and admin will delete this thread. Let's take it here
I'm not going to say anything so that this doesn't turn political, but......
the perps deserve the above

Blunt but true....
It is not "if" anymore but "when"
Truely sad state of affairs.
CNN says 33 dead, and 300 injured now.
I'm sorry this came to Britain. I'm very sorry for them. I hope if there is anything the US can do for them, they would just ask.
On the good side, Lodon has alot of cameras. Hopefully something was caught, and is actionable. It won't bring back the 33, but hopefully they can obtain justice.

what does it really matter though? chances are the people who did this died. even if not, so you put a handful of people in jail. big deal. there is a line for as long as you can see of others willing to step up and do the same thing. maybe when this is happening on a daily or weekly occurence in nyc our gov will finally step up and do something about terrorism.
whatever honest al. no one deserved this. don't be an ass.
very sad. had to call a few friends just now to make sure they were fine. they all are (whew), but my heart goes out to the victims and their families.

...and then drop the BIG - ONE like we should have done already rather than send our young men & women into a middle east "Holy War".
Al,
no matter what the rules may have been these guys didn't deserve this.... Thats just wrong.
I have a ton of UK friends- there are tons of RAT engines there..
The things that I believe should be done to any person engaging in even the thought of terrorism are way too cruel and unusual to post......
We are walking the political line way too close on this one fellas!

That's not really a fair statement. Not all of the "People" of London agreed to relax their immigration laws, their government did with the help of "probably" the majority (Oh, wait, does London have a democracy?). It's just like not everyone here likes Bush, but he's our President because obviously some people do.
Alison it's Alfred...just ignore him...his account will be gone shortly...again 
He's just a

He is gone again. Thanks to everyone here who notified me that he was back.
Keeping up with Alfred is kinda like playing wack-a mole. He pops up, and we hammer him down.
Maybe someone should keep score on the admins. 1 Point for each time they remove alfred.

No worries. London is an incredible city and I'm sure if they still go they will have a wonderful time. Nothing can stop the English people. But it will be a pain getting around with parts of the tubeway closed.

When you read a statement like that with 1 post.....well, it wasn't to hard to figure out.
Here is an example of what's been going on in the UK.
the dick has already gotten more of a response than he deserves...
new info:
Report: Islamic Group Claims London Blasts
Four London Blasts Kill 40, Injure 300
don't know how much is the truth yet though...

Honest_Al aka Alfred aka PITA......
He is the resident troll. We keep killing him, and he keeps reconstituting himself back in another persona.
If there is a positive to this 
It is that the Brits are experienced with terrorism. IRA and that jazz.
They should come through this as a nation just fine.

I agree Allison, he's a resident lurker, racist cocksucker, who posts on here and then his account is immediately banned... then he starts another account and we ban that, and delete those posts... he's like an annoying gnat, he gets swatted and he comes right back... except a gnat is more evolved.

Oh!! I think I heard something about this guy a long while back. I guess you guys do a good job of getting rid of his traces as I think this is the first time I've been witness to it.
Good job guys!!!

I wonder how these people can have these "rallies / confrence / whatever" in our country or elsewhere and not end up on the receiving end of a gun cleaning accident.
BANG BANG BANG .........Oops, didn't know it was loaded
My sympathies for those affected. Truly horrible and my heart is there with them.
You can bank on the fact that the rest of London will soldier on. People will continue to go out, and even show up for work. They have lived with this sort of thing for years and there is no way a Brit will give in and let something like this get him down for long. If they did they would not be happy with themselves. Its in their blood to stand up to adversity and hardship. they do it every day, hard as coffin nails.
Pull your socks up mates and put the kettle on. Tomorrow is another day.

My lastest phone call from the UK reported that 45 were dead and 350 injured. SKY NEWS has revised down their prior estimate. The shock is wearing off and the population is getting very pissed off!

Well, I hope they can do more than our government can. Probably not, though.
racial violence is a distinct possibility.

However they are a tough lot. Their Island Nation mind set gives them strength. Downtown London is full of the memories of WW2. Old bulidings standing next to newer buildings that were bombed out.

Happens all the time. Check out the video available here.
I just wanted to add my support for the brits. It is truly a sad day, but the words of Blair regarding the G6 summit ring true for all of Britian - The terrorists will not get what they want, we will not cower in fear.
God is crying, along with the families and friends that have lost loved ones this morning. Isn't it astounding how cruel we can be o each other.
And by the way admins, thank you for being ever watchful for "Alfreds"
