There have been a series of bombings in London. PM Tony Blair is positive it was terrorism.

Half a dozen explosions rocked the London subway and tore open a packed double-decker bus during the morning rush hour Thursday, police said. At least two people were killed and nine injured in the nearly simultaneous blasts, and officials shut down the entire underground transport network.

The explosions came a day after London was awarded the 2012 Olympics and as the G-8 summit was getting under way in Scotland. Initial reports blamed a power surge for the subway explosions, but officials were not ruling out an attack.

Scotland Yard had just warned Israel of possible attacks.

According to Bob Davis, there has been a Terrorist Group that claimed responsibility. It may have said that it is attacking the G8 countries who support America in Iraq.
Update:
It was terrorists!

“Rejoice, Islamic nation. Rejoice, Arab world. The time has come for vengeance against the Zionist crusader government of Britain in response to the massacres Britain committed in Iraq and Afghanistan,” said the statement, translated by The Associated Press in Cairo.

See they mentioned Afghanistan. So all you pukes who think it is all about Iraq can go f%#& yourselves. Your anti-American bias has been proven.

“We warned the British government and the British people repeatedly. We have carried out our promise and carried out a military attack in Britain after great efforts by the heroic mujahedeen over a long period to ensure its success.”
“We continue to warn the governments of Denmark and Italy and all crusader governments that they will receive the same punishment if they do not withdraw their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan,” the statement went on.
It was signed “The Secret Organization of al-Qaida in Europe.”

Do you see that there is more to worry about than Africa? Do you see that it really doesn’t matter what kind of mileage you get? Do you see that you are being fooled by the ‘American Royalty’ into thinking that the most important thing isn’t freedom’s survival? Wake up everyone. They are trying to kill not only us, but our way of life!

My heart goes out to the people of Britain.

My hope goes out to the Left around the World that they once again get the courage to deal with terrorists. Or that they shut up and be quiet while the serious adults take care of business.

Does anyone still see the War on Terror as over anymore?

Update: Deathtoll & Injury Reports as of 9:15 Central Time

at least 40 people were killed and London hospitals reported more than 360 wounded.

Update:
Are you willing to risk this happening at a town near you?

Dr Laurence Buckman, from the BMA’s GPs committee, said the front of BMA House in Tavistock Square was splattered with blood and body parts were strewn across the road.
…
He said: “I arrived at the BMA just as the first ambulance arrived. My first impression was about the amount of blood. The whole of the front of the building was covered with blood – quite high up, I suspect that was because the upstairs of the bus had been blown off.”

Then there is this statement he made so innocently, that the terrorists might use next time. Or maybe they missed their mark a little.

He said: “It was fortunate that the explosion happened at that location where there so many doctors around.”

I’m willing to bet the terrorists missed the mark. Had they hit that building, the very important Health Care system in London, would have been devastated.
