No, nothing you haven't heard. They just had some interviews with victims on Sky News.

These bastards really have no idea who they are fooling with.

Yeah, heard that the claim of responsibility mentioned Iraq and Afghanistan.

If I was Tony, I'd IMMEDIATELY double my contingent in those countries.

Let em see what happens when they play with fire.

A young lady we know, who spent the last two years in London got a call from a friend.

The friend said that BBC said:

1. MI6 and 5 apparently know who is responsible and are tracking them down in the UK at this time.

2. However, that is the short term response. Apparently the Taliban and their drug farms will be the long range targets. Apparently, there is a financial tie from the Taliban to the Jihadists in London, who are responsible for these vile acts of terrorism.
