Why not the Basques.

'Gimme a break! Look at the MO. Civilian targets, multiple co-ordinated bombings, a city with a large, radical Islamic presence.

The only other possible perp would be G8 anarchists -- and that's stretching it also.

***This seems to be connected to islamic terrorism, also because in the UK there are lots of radicals and the UK's involvement in Iraq.***

I agree! The Islamists want the Brits out of Iraq. They forget that London was bombed nightly in WWII, and the people did not give up their fight against the Nazis.

Fox News reporting blast in Brighton also.

I cannot belive that this was the IRA... No reason at this time for them to do it... They risk to much including their total anilation if they did this. This is the work of The Jihadists.

Take credit and DIE!

Exactly!

Hi you may want to listen to our local radio station

I hope your son's ok, I've been working and stuck inside thank God some I'm just now catching up with the horror I missed literally by minutes this morning

[rabidralph]

I was referring to the muslims' ongoing war with Israel, then Sirhan Sirhan, Munich Olympics, Marine Barracks, etc.

[amom]

Thanks for the link. My son is fine, his voicemail message sounded hurried but is ok. You missed this by minutes! Glad you missed it! You sit tight now you hear? (just what you need is another mom! ;-))

[Americanwolf]

in that case I agree with you then... :) sorry usually a 60's refference draws me to the IRA. Guess it is the Irish blood in me.

[rabidralph]

Not a problem, shipmate. Thank you for your service. I hope you had plenty of chalk to write with while arming the jets.

[Americanwolf]

That I did.. sent many a nice comment to the desert sands.

Prayers going out across the pond to our friends in Britain.

[rabidralph]

God bless you!

FOX NEWS: 7 More explosions: 90 fatalities so far

90 casualties, which means killed or injured. Apparently, there are only two dead so far. I thought "casualties" meant "fatalities" too.

"Somebody's going to find out what the roar of the British lion is like."

I hardly think so. Britain is nothing like it was even 15 years ago. An arrest or two will be made and the British courts will quickly release them unless there is overwhelming evidence.

Yes, thanks, I wrote that hastily
