In the meantime, the Australian debate on whether or not to recommit troops to Afghanistan is as good as over and our troops in Iraq are likely to be reinforced. I can't see the WoT spreading, but I can sure as shit see it getting a shot in the arm.
What the fuck does Iraq have to do with Al Qaeda? Oh, that's right, nothing.
What about that Al-Zaquawi [I spelt his name wrong...] fellow? He is AQ isn't he?
Apparently the bus was not a tourist bus, it was the number 30 if that means anything to our London members.

The guy that had his leg amputated in Baghdad when saddam was in power, who was then magically given a new one in perfect working condition after the invasion?

I just get the impression that Islam is a far more polarized religion than Christianity - there appears to be a lot of fundies and a few muslims-in-name-only, with only a few actual moderates.
I don't think I've ever met any muslim I wouldn't class as a moderate...
Most of them are happy enough with the basic "restrictions" of their religion and don't feel that they're lifestyles are that cramped by them.
How can you know that's not just a sham and they aren't either fundies at heart or those Muslims-in-name-only (MsINO) I mentioned? After all, the people found to be the 9/11 hijackers lived very Western lifestyles.

Yes. It's the bus I usually take to go into uni during term time. Moves from Marble Arch in the western end of Oxford St to Hackney in NE London. It does pass through King's Cross and Aldgate as well I think.

They just showed images of the front of the BMA building that the bus blew up next to. It's literally painted in black blood from the blast. Fuuuuck.

This gives me another idea... could the bombing perhaps be done by Neo-Nazis who then put out a false message claiming Al-Qaeda responsibility in order to boost xenophobia across Europe?

Fuck me - thats a whole lot of condemnation - check out the link, everyone from NATO to Pope Benedict stating a willingness to kick arse and take names.

Hey, now here's an idea: How about after we round them all up, we put them in "decontamination rooms" and pump a bunch of gas in there to kill 'em?

Because if a significant majority of muslims are lunatic fringe mass murderers, not people who go to work to raise thier families but avoid pork and alcohol, and perhaps wear a headscarve, I'd never have lived long enough to try to comprehend this preposterous statement made on a internet webboard.

My news channels are now saying that there were only 4 bombs, some bombs may have been suicide ones, and some guy who is not Al-Qaeda is now claiming responsibility too. (Al-Zsomething)
Are we getting new info or am I just listening to the wrong sources?

Just like the UK's involvement in Iraq (and to a lesser extent Afganistan), the idiots responsible for these attrocious acts will also reap what they sowed.
My heartfelt condolences to all the victims and their families, and wish those injured a speedy recovery.

That's reassuring. I've heard there were 4 bombs, but two trains were near eachother or collided or something and also people exited through 6 tunnels when wounded so it looked like there were more.

Looks like Andrew Marr's statement that this would not be as bad as Omagh seems preety fucking stupid now.
