Somebody did post that tidbit here, but it wasn;t from Drudge. It was fromSky News I think.

I don't really understand that info... why tell Israel?

[Peach]

Prime Minister of Israel denies they were told London would be attacked. Says it's early, bad reporting.

The jihadists love to start rumors and find a way to blame the Jews.

why tell Israel?

The purported "tip" went to Israeli security in LONDON at an economic summit. Netanyahu was to attend.

No way to know if this will turn out to be accurate.

It would seem more likely that Israel told Scotland yard. Maybe just a transposition of words by the writer?

Found an article. Israel was getting ready host and economic conference close to the first blast site:

"British police told the Israeli Embassy in London minutes before today's explosions they had received warnings of possible terror attacks in the city, a senior Israeli official said.

Israel was holding an economic conference near the scene of one of the explosions. Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was supposed to attend, but the attacks occurred before he arrived.

Just before the blasts, Scotland Yard called the security officer at the Israeli Embassy and said warnings of possible attacks had been received, the official said. He did not say whether British police made any link to the economic conference."

This may have some ramifications with respect to the Olympics. The ACLU and Liberals that wish to release the prisoners at Gitmo may not have such leverage now and the liberal screaming press will have to ratchet down the racket with respect to releasing those pieces of excrement at Gitmo. Maybe now Al Queda and Muslims will receive a cold shoulder from the sympathetic misinformed head up their ass liberals now that the true Islamic attitudes have been reinforced with the London bombings.

If we don't start executing the criminal radicals that are apprehended we can expect more attacks.

Possibly, they might have just heard some chatter about bombs on busses, and their minds went right to Jerusalem. Alternatively, they might have thought Israel could possibly corroborate info about a London attack.

If there was indeed a warning to Scotland Yard, it was likely very vague, they called Israel to see if the Mossad had any info like a similar warning, recent step up in chatter, etc. It all moves fast, and despite that idiot Judge Neopolito already pointing accusatory fingers, probably none of these agencies made a mistake or were in a position to prevent any of the bombings.
