Let me ask you this detailer. So... the Al-Qaeda linked bombings in Bali, Madrid, Casablanca, Istanbul and London (assuming London is such an attack) are all examples of national security forces or individuals in the 'deep state' with a grudge against Muslims...

Of course not. I did not say that the terorists acts today were done by British security either. I think, I am simply not capable to make myself clear on such a sensitive issue on this sensitive day. I would like to discuss this issue with you another time.

Bombs went off at Kings Cross (North Central London), Aldgate (East Central London) and Edgeware Road (West Central London). 3 prong attack to paralise Londons transport system. Anybody got in the way, tough luck.

Kings Cross is one of the main north-south hubs. The bomb at Aldgate was aimed at Liverpool St, which is one of the main east-line hubs. The choice of Edgware Road is a strange one, I would have thought Paddington would have been the target. The worst one in my view is the bus bomb at Tavistock Square. That happened a short time after the initial bombings and may have been designed to catch people in the blast who had been forced onto buses by the tube shutdown. Very callous and very nasty.

Ok mate, sorry if I'm touchy but I'm really angry about this and it's affected (indirectly thankfully) some good friends that I have in London. I think the political aspects to this are for later discussion as you said.

London is a world city anyway, so this will have affected people from all over the world. In that respect, it is a repeat of 9/11 where many nations suffered losses.

actually ive thought london to be more of an international city than new york. new york is more "american" than it was international.

And even though the victims of the london attacks were much less it still is quite horrible. I always supsected London to be the next target because I remember their security was nothing from what New Yorks was last year.

I'm just wondering, I recall reading something about Abu Hamza al-Mazri otherwise known as hook hand starting his trial this week. Would it be possible that the attack on London has something to do with his trial? I know its a very thin conspiracy theory, but with his trial this week, G8 in Edinburgh having a percentage of London Police, it surely was the perfect time to launch an attack, as a mark of support for this murderer?


Sorry, still trying to get my head around this, still waiting for a reply back from that friend, tried calling his flat, no reply, even called his parents and no reply. Making me think all weird stuff. Guess I was thinking out aloud there.
