It's what you get when all 3 of your major parties are run by spineless wimps who only care about appeasing the European Union.

I think this is typical, and what we've seen in Iraq, namely that as we adapt, kill, arrest, intercept these terrorists, they adapt too, but at much lower levels of effectiveness. They have not been able to stage another attack in the U.S.; the second generaion of IED attacks in Iraq was much less successful, and they gravitated toward attacking civilians and kidnapping; and now we see the same pattern here, where the second bombing is vastly less effective than the first.

BBC: Detonators found on three packages, but no real explosions.

9-11 they killed the head of the Northern Alliance (Masood?)

7-7 they killed the Egyptian ambassador kidnapped in Iraq

And they have the Algerian ambassador they kidnapped today, I wonder if he's dead

I'll have to look at other attacks to see if there are any more like that

I didn't think the cops carried guns.

That's a common miscondeption. The specialists carry guns but the regular cops aren't issued with them.

But guns are illegal in London!

(snicker)

This terror bombing is just another reason why PC will kill Western civilization. The only solution is for US to become less "civilized" when dealing with these Islamic terrorist punks. They don't understand, respect, or deserve civility. Until then...IMHO, expect more innocents dead and more excuses why we must be tolerant of them.

No casualties so far. :)

They are searching for man seen running from the station. Sniffer dogs looking for a person above ground.

No indication who they are looking for.

Explosions were detonators..rather than bombs themselves.

They don't, but they have access to guns in short order. As in cars in the area.

Also, they have security personal who do have guns.

The police have blocked off all streets in the areas.

Ken Livingstone, mayor of London, please report to the muslim apologist council to help in preparing a press release blaming Britain and America.

Of course, Red Ken is too thick-skulled to realize that his shameless appeasment in the last two weeks has encoureaged this attack. Why wouldn't they figure that if they push just a little harder, even with hastily planned small attacks, Britain won't fold?
