There seems to be all sorts of rumour flying about this already. There's no reports over here of unexploded bombs as of yet. There were 4 bombs-3 on the tube network and one on a bus.<br /><br /><br />If you want to see the latest stuff try www.bbc.co.uk/news

Re: Explosions in London

I'm with Putin: "We have done too little to fight back. We have done too little to unite our forces"<br /><br />Know why Russians weren't kidnapped in the middle east in the 80s like Americans and Brits? Because when the islamo-fascists tried it, the Russians went out and kidnapped and executed a whole bunch of them! They got the message real fast!<br /><br />Just imagine how many attacks there would have been by now if we hadn't killed so many of them in Afghanistan and Iraq. Security experts estimate that 60,000 or more were trained in Al Qaeda camps in Afghanistan.

Originally posted by 62_Kiwi:<br /> PW2, nobody is seriously talking about using nukes - except possibly Al Qaeda - which is a worrying thought.<br /><br />Liberal tactics are what helps the enemy - we need a more hard line approach against this threat to our civilisation. What we need are more resources targeted at leaving no stone unturned until these vermin are exterminated from our planet. There in no place in our gene pool for this truely evil and ghastly mutation.
Liberal tactics are not what helps the enemy. The war in Iraq is what has helped the enemy, at least according to the CIA. But they wouldn't know anyway, right? After all, they brought us the "bad intelligence" that put us where we are today.<br /><br /> CIA: Iraq now a bigger terrorist threat than Afghanistan/binLaden<br /><br /> U.S. Figures Show Sharp Global Rise In Terrorism <br /><br />Occupation Made World Less Safe, Pro-War Institute Says <br /><br />So go ahead and keep blaming "liberals" for these problems when every report shows that what the current U.S. Admin has done is increase terrorist attacks globally and make the world less safe. Report after report after report confirms this.

Re: Explosions in London

Excellent point Dave, now is not the time to get into the politics of it. Nos4r2, I heard about the unexploded bombs during a breaking news moment on the radio about an hour ago. Facts and details have been wrong all day so who knows? I'd imagine that you know more than us across the pond.

We had every right to go to Afganistan, thats where the mastermind and terrorist training took place for the 9/11 and African embassy bombings.<br /> <br />I do think that you will find everyone even the French and Germans agreed with us going into Afganistan.<br /><br />Iraq, now that is a different kettle of fish.

Re: Explosions in London

Killing the enemy helps them? That's some real deep thinking for you. God help us all!<br /><br />What do you think 60,000 were trained to do in Afghanistan in the 90s, grow fruit?

Re: Explosions in London

I too have heard about finding unexploded bombs, almost all of the American news media is owned and operated by the entertainment corporations, so we can never believe what they tell us off the bat, their never ending goal is ratings, which increases their advertising revenue. :(

Re: Explosions in London

Peter, I'm glad to hear your son is ok. My London based friends are all ok too (texting still seems to be working).<br /><br />I feel for the victims and their families - who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time... :(

So what you are saying is, "If only we could figure out why they dont like us everything would be hunky dory"!

Just now heard on the news that there were two timing devices and "remnants" that were found in the Underground but no details. I'll look for a link.
