Two weeks on, another attack in London. Same thing: three bombs in the Underground, one on a bus. Luckily though, they didn't explode properly and only one person was injured. They'll be able to examine the bombs and see if they can spot who did it. It seems more likely to be a copycat crime than a repeat of the last attack. But still, it happening again... it's so sad that people want to attack innocent civilians, but even worse, it's happening all over the world and it's never commented on unless it's somewhere important to the West.

Copy cat crimes are scary in their own way, Silver. Who would want to emulate these horrible attacks? I just don't get it.

To everyone in London and abroad...((((((((((hugs))))))))))

Stay safe everyone.

AH the wonderful media! Yes, these attacks happen all the time all around the world. Look at Israel! How many each WEEK??? It doesn't make it any easier when it is in your backyard though. But the real terrorists here, imo, are the media. They don't even report the news anymore, but make it and hype it. Greed.

the armed police in london are now working to a new directive, we only have a relatativley few armed police compared to other countries and before the bombings started the police were trained to shoot to stop you, but not kill you, now it is reported they have been given licence to kill, it is indeed a sad day to report these facts, they have shot dead a suspected attempted bomber on the london underground ( yesterday) and the police wont confirm if he was 1 of the attempted bombers they are hunting down. if the unconfirmed reports are incorrect then an innocent man died and no one will face charges of murder, race relations are at an all time low in my area, yorkshire, where the first set of bombers came from, no asian taxis or take outs will deliver to the village i was brought up in in fear of attacks, it is indeed a sad day for us all.

just to update you on the fatal shooting of a man by police in conection with the attepted bombing of london, like i predicted he was an inocent man on his way to work who lived in the same complex as the suspected bombers, the police have opened and closed the enquiry and wont have a public enquiry into his death so no blame can be allocated to the officer who shot him 7 times at point blank range in the head, what is the world comming to?

it has been reported on the news tonight that the remaining 3 attempted suicide bombers have been caught ( 1 was caught earlier in the week) and are all in police custody, the sad thing is there are plenty more people out there willing to step into their place

Yes, it is sad. Once the free world realizes the true modus operandi of the enemy troops, they will have a better plan for fighting them. Up till now, imo, they have listed them as terrorists, and not a viable "war enemy." IMO I'm shocked at their ignorance, personally, that they are doing so little and only providing motivation for many fence-sitting countries to join the fight against them. Certainly the current battle against them has hurt their operations considerably. Unfortunately, as in any war, there are casualties. We just aren't used to them being innocent women and children.
