Great news, thanks very much.
Still thinking of you and your countrymen.
If you still have a ping list, could you put me back on it? I miss your posts.
Regards, Semper
Madivan, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your fellow Brits. We know how this kind of despicable act feels. God Bless you all!!!
Great post LL! Hope all is well with you!

How do you think the average londener will react? Across the pond we are told by our media that the war on terror is very unpopular there.

I think the reaction will be/is stoic, people wll get on with it. London has always been under threat from one thing or the other since WW2 but there are more of us than them so statistically people know there is little chance of getting hurt.
I think it was on here somebody noted that in the May General Election that 70% of the newly elected Parliament were from pro-war parties, which probably shows how little the War effected voting rather than support for the war. Support has always been 50-50, with majority support before the war and large minority after it (and a large minority who care neither way).
I think we are scheduled to leave Iraq for Afghanisatn at some point in the next year or so and we will not change that unless the troops are needed elsewhere urgently and we will not let those buggers get any kind of result/
Yes, our allies (?) have really let America down these past few years. Now we know why---money, graft, corruption, greed.....
As you rapidly go down the stream in your canoe and you notice that you have lost your paddle and the falls are approaching, I hope your mother standing on shore can bark loud enough to get someone's attention.
I give you points for originality. You're still a jerkwad for berating MadIvan for something he NO F*CKING control over, i.e., gun laws.
Get bent.
