7/7: The London Attack

7/7 London BombingThe blogosphere is on fire, reporting on this morning’s news of a terrorist bombing in London.

AP reports: “Four London Blasts Kill 40, Injure 350 700

Four blasts rocked the London subway and tore open a packed double-decker bus during the morning rush hour Thursday, sending bloodied victims fleeing in the worst attack on London since World War II. At least 40 people were killed, U.S. officials said, and more than 360 wounded in the terror attacks. A clearly shaken Prime Minister Tony Blair called the attacks “barbaric” and said they were designed to coincide with the G-8 summit opening in Gleneagles, Scotland.”

    London Bombings

    It’s funny how only yesterday London was celebrating the successful Olympic bid and only one day later the capital is devastated. People are acting calm, but as a man on BBC news said he thinks it’s only an act, trying to put a ‘brave face’ on the …

    London’s emergency services have been praised for their quick & efficient service throughout today. I live in Bristol & police presence here has been highly visable today. We are alert!

    On “Terror in “Londonistan”, Echoes of Madrid” and ‘Wake Up Calls’

    The London attacks must serve as a wake-up call to all of the West. Political correctness must end now. Fundamental Islam IS the enemy and it is the ISLAMISTS that we must bring to their knees.

    al Qaida claims London explosions

    The heroic mujahidin have carried out a blessed raid in London. Britain is now burning with fear, terror and panic in its northern, southern, eastern, and western quarters.

    Unfortunately, as we watched the twin towers fall again and again on our screens I reached the horrible conclusion that Bush, or whoever is actually controlling this empty headed cowboy, had either knowingly allowed terrorists to carry out their dreams or had deliberately organized or encouraged this madness.

    In my mind and the mind of Ken Livingston (Mayor of London), the senseless bombing of London is an act of deliberate mass murder.

    This is mass murder that I believe was carefully organized by agents, paid assassins or even military personnel who are in the pay of what I call the Bush-Blair project.

    It no longer maters to me if Blair is aware of the insane plans and intentions of the current American administration. What is certain is that in the so called west, we have lost sight of democracy.

    The Bush-Blair project must be stopped because they are guilty of mass murder. We will not forget that they sent troops to murder the people of Iraq. There were no weapons of mass destruction.
