I just heard from a friend who was on the tube this morning and I think I have explanation for the early stories that it was a "massive power failure"

That's what they were telling the passengers while they were trying to evacuate them from underground rather than saying "there's been a bomb at Edgeware and there might be one on this train too" which could perhaps cause people to panic.

The problem is that this "mayor" is one of those who can't seem to comprehend that we need to jail the terrorists at Gitmo and other places indefinitely - or kill them. (I prefer the latter, but he of course would not dream of that option.)

I suppose that caller would have blamed the US for Pearl Harbor because of the oil embargo against Japan.

Al-Qaeda plot against London 'inevitable'
(Agencies)
Updated: 2005-02-05 09:21


It is "inevitable" that Osama bin Laden's Al-Qaeda network will try to stage an attack in London, the British capital's new police chief said in an interview.


Sir Ian Blair's warning in the Daily Telegraph newspaper echoed similar concerns expressed a year ago by Sir John Stevens, his predecessor as Metropolitan Police commissioner.

"It is inevitable that terrorists connected with Al-Qaeda will attempt to carry out an atrocity in London," said Blair, 51, who took over as Britain's most senior police officer on Tuesday.


"I know that because they have. It is difficult to calculate whether it is inevitable that they will get through."


Al-Qaeda, perpetrator of the September 11 attacks in New York and Washington in 2001, is regarded by the British government as "the most significant terrorist threat" to the nation.


Besides day-to-day policing in greater London, the Metropolitan Police is responsible for anti-terrorist operations all over Britain.


Blair told the Daily Telegraph that he backed the introduction of identity cards in Britain, saying they would help identify suspects in anti-terrorist raids. He also called for telephone wiretaps to be allowed as evidence in terrorist trials.


Stevens, who has retired, spoke of the "inevitability" of an Al-Qaeda attack on London shortly after the Madrid commuter train bombings in March last year in which 191 people died.

I heard from FOX that London has been a hotbed for Islamic Extremist and they had just deported a bunch of them. It's time for them to deport them all and close all the mosque.
