Terrorism in London?
http://edition.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/eu...ube/index.html
At least two dead and ninety injured in five (or more) explosions in London public transportation systems... Terrorism or accident? http://edition.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/eu...ine/index.html

This has Al-qaeda written al over it. Shows again total protection against terrorism is virtually impossible.

First saw the news in this thread (I thought it useless to check the news before checking the forums I like (wrong guess today)), and then I checked the news at Yahoo France. Apparently Al-Qaida has just said it's them. Who could it be, apart from them or other terrorists like them ?
This only strenghtens my remark in my 1st post of my thread about the Games : Tony should go, but he has just been reelected !! According to the reasons (Iraq, Afghanistan), Paris wouldn't have been attacked, but you never know of course. Best of luck to London, because the threat will be there for 7 long years.

Heard about this on the news while driving into work today All I can say is that I echo Erikk's sentiment that I hope all our British friends are ok as well as thier families/friends, etc.
