Got a few friends communicating with me via internet & offices etc they say there's some stuff going on at Leicester Square but it's hard to know wtf is happening at the moment. I wager they are more confused in London than we are, the press are saying one thing then they hear the opposite from another source. rolleyes:

[quote="Sergeant_Scrotum":04b49][quote="Sgt>Stackem":04b49]these terrorists must be exterminated from the earth. How many more men, women and children do they have to blow up before the world understands we need to rid the earth of there assholes. It is an absolute cowardous act, cowards all of them.
I hope all is well in London and I hope there wasnt too much loss of life. The Brits are our strongest allie and Im sure the US will do whatever they need to help them in thier hour of need[/quote:04b49] I think you need to think a little closer into what your saying. You can't just "elliminate" all of the terroists. Being a terroist isent told by a gene you have, it isent the colour of your skin or the clothes you wear. What makes you a terroists? what dosent? I belive the only way to rid the world of terrosits is to stop creating them. and you will have to wait for the current ones to die out. These people do not have a desiese, they just hate the developed world and their is no way anyone can ever change that. At least thats just my opinion. I think we should just be glad that not many people were seriously hurt. I think everyone belives alot more damage could have been done but thankfully it didn't . calmdown:[/quote:04b49] I suppose you are one of the "ones" that will say that the Brits brought this upon themselves, you can eliminate them (the terrorists) but the only way is with the help of the world. Too many countries hide these thugs, if we have to go whereever to take them out Im all for it. I will stand behind the Brits 100%, they truely helped us in our time of need and now its time to return the favor ( did you hear that France?) |
I jus heard about this this morning, thats terrible. Although 33 casualties is alot (relative to what sites say), it could have been much worse.

there are likely more dead, some of the blown tubes havent been searched yet. still, it could have been much worse. Unfortunately, with london completely shut down, it would be easy to launch a bigger attack.

Bomb attacks in England over the past 20 years or so....
[url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/terrorism/story/0,12780,1523526,00.html:56971]From here.[/url:56971] [quote:56971]The IRA bomb campaign, which hit London from 1973 onwards, sought to create a climate of fear over a long period, but it soon tried to explode two or more devices at a time to maximise the havoc. There were 36 bombs in London in 1973. Over 20 years, the IRA strategy shifted away from causing as many casualties as possible to trying to cause economic damage to London's financial centre. The major incidents were: 1973, March 8: two IRA car bombs in London explode outside the Old Bailey and government's agriculture department headquarters, killing one person and wounding more than 150 1974, October 5: two IRA bombs explode in pubs in the London suburb of Guildford; five dead, more than 50 injured November 21: two IRA bombs in Birmingham kill 19 and wound more than 180 1982, July 20: two IRA bombs in Hyde Park and Regent's Park in London kill 11 British soldiers and wound more than 40, mostly civilian onlookers 1983, December 17: IRA car bomb explodes outside Harrods department store, killing six people and wounding about 100 1984 October 12: IRA targets conference of ruling Conservative party, killing five and wounding 24, but narrowly missing the prime minister, Margaret Thatcher 1989, September 22: the IRA bombs the Royal Marines School of Music in Deal, killing 10 soldiers and wounding more than 30 1991, February 7: IRA fires three homemade mortar shells at No 10 Downing Street, the British prime minister's official residence in London. No injuries 1992, April 10: a massive IRA truck bomb in London's financial district kills three and causes hundreds of millions of pounds worth in damage April 24: an IRA truck bomb in London's financial district, killing one and causing heavy damage 1996, February 9: IRA ends a 17-month ceasefire with a third massive truck bomb in London's financial district, killing two February 18: an IRA bomber accidentally kills himself aboard a London double-decker bus, five injured June 15: for the first time, the IRA targets a different English city - Manchester - with a massive truck bomb, wrecking the central shopping area and wounding about 200 2000, September 20: IRA dissidents fire rocket-propelled grenades at headquarters of MI5 security agency. No injuries.[/quote:56971] |

[quote:e9c4f] Jacob Keryakes: Well, the statement was published on an Islamic web site. Minutes later, it was removed from the web site itself because it contained an error in one of the Quaranic verses and al-Qaida doesn't usually do that, but the same statement was published (later) on a secular web site. The statement was signed by a group calling itself "The Secret Organization or the Secret Wing of al-Qaida in Europe."[/quote:e9c4f] |

Today has been horrible, I've been trying to contact a group of family friends who live in London but no reply as of yet. They live in the centre of London and commute in the tube alot, I really hope they're alright.
I was listening to BBC radio 5 Live this morning at 9.45 and heard all the fuss about apparent power surges in the underground. I thought nothing of it and then out of no-where a tube passenger phoned in and mentioned a police officer told him at least 30 were lost...I was shocked and I've been trying to get information about it all day. I always said it was going to be a matter of time and this is it. There will doubtless be more attacks on the way but today has been a terrible test on how we'll have to cope with these bastards and their horrible intentions. I don't usually but I actually got a little emotional reading all the reports in the paper on my way home tonight, it was total panic and devastation. Hope all the injured heal quickly so we can all get on with our lives again. Those fucks won't bring us down to their level, ever.

RIp and know that we got your backs no matter what...stay strong and dont let these fucksticks bring you down to their level.

I was at work when this happened and heard it on teh radio as 'breaking news' One of my friends was supposed to be moving to london next week, so i'm not sure if he'll be moving now. I'm just glad the death rate wasnt higher. My thoughts are with the familys and friends of the injured and deceased.
|
R.I.P. to those that are now deceased, and a fast recovery to all those injured physically and emotionally.
|
if these islamic terrorists keep up the pope is gonna call for a crusade damnit
|
Indeed? Is there some official release about those responsible or is this your expert opinion like most young Americans seem to have?
|
I dont believe there has been an 'official' statement telling us who is to blame, but the only people claiming to be responsible are the al-quieda.
|
my dad was on the tube an hour before going to work so eh. but hes fine.
he's part of the anti terrorist squad anyway so hes working round the clock. |
Yikes, Just heard about this this evening.
Stay safe fellas. |
|
Thats a shame. Yet another cowardly act by these extremists.
