Morning all, any confirmation of Al Qaeda on this?
I looked at the main thread but a lot of extraneous talking and no info that I could find quickly.
I'm concerned about London being the start. If you all remember the warnings from before.
There has to be video somewhere of who left these bombs since London has cameras everywhere.
Hi, WCG and all..
Also haven't checked in here for quite a while.
But I do remember the chatter from 2 years or so (?) back about "events beginning in London".
Sounds like Italy and Denmark are on high alert as well, per comments/rumors this AM.
Have to wonder if this is "it" for now, or if we're going to see strikes at other targets, including NYC, DC and other areas of Europe once their rush hours commence.
Prayers to all who are in those locations today. Stay safe!

"Terrorists Strike London With Series of Blasts"
Thursday, July 07, 2005
LONDON —
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A previously unknown group, "Secret Group of al Qaeda's Jihad in Europe," claimed responsibility in the name of Al Qaeda for the blasts, according to the Italian news agency ANSA. The group claimed the attack in a Web site posting and warned Italy and Denmark to withdraw their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan, ANSA said.
The claim could not be verified and did not appear on any of the Web sites normally used by Al Qaeda."
Your thoughts mirror my own. I was wondering the same thing myself. I just can't remember who or where that came from, about things starting in London.
The group that claimed responsibility for this also claimed to be associated with AQ. Has the finger prints of AQ-styled operation all over it.
1. Timed, coordinated, multiple attacks designed to maximize terror and news coverage.
2. Standard garbage associated with the claiming of responsibility for attacks. Group also claims to be an AQ branch.
