Six confirmed blasts coordinated much like in the Madrid attacks. 5 subway bombs and one on a bus so far it looks like. No one has claimed responsibility yet, but analysts say it definitely has a radical Islamist air about it.

I hope they don't catch these poor terrorists and send them to Gitmo.

for everyone here. I am hoping for the best.

That was kind of classless.

 

Prayers for the people injured and families of the killed.

The timing was poor, to be sure, but there's people that are thinking it, sadly enough. That's part of the problem, actually, and why they continue to attack, is because we are so divided on this.

I understand that, and how sad that the first impulse is to attack or make a snide comment towards people we disagree with than to consider the lives that are lost, or the children left without a parent, or parent who now has to plan her child's funeral. Sad that sometimes we're more concerned with being right than doing what's right.

Previously unknown Al Qaeda group claims credit for attack

ok i've snapped

 

f*** the US, f*** Dubya, f*** this war.

 

what did the whole f***ing war accomplish? NOTHING!

 

Sorry Nuke but the US really screwed the f*** up this time. 4 years later and still we cant f***ing stop them. pathetic.

 

OOOH MAYBE SADAM COORDINATED THIS ONE FROM PRISON!!!!!

 

f*** everything

This is really really sad. The good news - if that's even possible - is that it may not be as bad as previously thought. Instead of seven bombings, its down to four.

 

The current toll is 10 dead and 190 injured. Here's to hoping the numbers don't climb much further. I think that this could have been a LOT worse.

 

Prayers with those who need it right now.

Savages must be found wherever they are and exterminated.

LONDON - At least 40 people were killed in the explosions that ripped through three London subway trains and a bus on Thursday, according to a U.S. law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity because British officials have yet to make public the death toll.

 

The near simultaneous explosions caused at least 300 injuries in what Prime Minister Tony Blair said was a "barbaric" terrorist attack.

I am praying that my aunt and uncle and their two sons have already moved back to Ireland. They had been living in London for the last 10-15 years or so and are moving back to Ireland (Dublin, I think) this summer.

 

for all killed, injured and affected by these blasts.

Edited July 7, 200520 yr by Queen Prawn

Sky News is reporting 45 dead, 150 serious injuries, about 1000 injured in total.

It's just gutless! Innocent people just trying to get to work, this is so frustrating.

So now that I've prayed for the families of the injured and dead, as well as the British people, can I hate the soulless islamo-fascists now? or do I have to listen to another "Christianity produced the crusades" lecture?

 

Last time I checked there's only one major religion doing the killing lately. If we can blame Catholic leadership for the preist pedophile scandal, I don't see why we can't blame Muslim leadership for the death of thousands upon thousands of people.

 

Nuke Cleveland should change his name to Nuke Muslims

London was SO excited about getting the Olympics, the timing couldn't be more cruel. Blair looks devastated. Prayers for the families and rest in a better place for those killed.

So now that I've prayed for the families of the injured and dead, as well as the British people, can I hate the soulless islamo-fascists now? or do I have to listen to another "Christianity produced the crusades" lecture?

 

Sure, but what good will that do, hating them? It just makes us more like them.

PA: The bible says that you should pray for the soulless. In fact, I believe it was Paul who said you should pray for everyone.

 

So that's what I'm going to do today.

It's good to see people not generalizing or making blanket statements about an entire religion.

Thanks for the bible lesson. I'll return to my seat and watch the world go to pot.

This needs no green because it happens every single day to Christians around the world. See: X-games commercial on ESPN. So offensive. If that were making fun of jews or muslims it'd be national headlines....

That was kind of classless.

 

Prayers for the people injured and families of the killed.

 

Sorry, but week after week of listening to the USA get bashed for keeping these terrorists in a place where they cannot do things like this gets to me. Call it classless if you want to. I really don't care. I had a point to make, and I made it.

No more savage than shooting rockets from a helicopter gunship into an apartment complex. No more savage than "collateral damage". No more savage than US soldiers making two Iraqis jump off a bridge to their deaths. [http://washtimes.com/upi-breaking/20040731-101609-2416r.htm -- I even got it from the Moonie Times, so I'm really waiting for the leftist media claim, Nuke] No more savage than the leveling of the entire city of Fallujah. No more savage than the systematic (yes, systematic, read the Taguba report) torture at the prisons like Abu Ghraib and Gitmo.

 

Besides, didn't Bush tell them to "bring it on"?

 

I feel very badly for all the families involved that have been affected by this tragedy. Its sad that they have to pay the price for our leaders being f***ing incompetent and functionally retarded.

 

Former CIA analyst Michael Scheuer makes a startlingly trenchant point in the opening paragraph of Imperial Hubris, his bestselling book:

 

"As I complete this book, U.S., British, and other coalition forces are trying to govern apparently ungovernable postwar states in Afghanistan and Iraq, while simultaneously fighting growing Islamist insurgencies in each – a state of affairs our leaders call victory. In conducting these activities, and the conventional military campaigns preceding them, U.S. forces and policies are completing the radicalization of the Islamic world, something Osama bin Laden has been trying to do with substantial but incomplete success since the early 1990s. As a result, I think it fair to conclude that the United States of America remains bin Laden's only indispensable ally."

 

If Bush wants, as he said, for the terrorists to "bring it on" then they're really only giving him what he demanded.
