A government inquiry into London's terrorist attack on July 7 last year will say there was no direct support from al-Qaeda, even though two of the bombers had visited Pakistan, The Observer newspaper reports.
officer bar brady "nothing to see here..."
Well, they didn't have al-Qaeda membership cards signed by Osama bin Laden, did they?
Didn't al-Qaeda take credit for this?

I would bet what the report will say is that the investigation didn't manage to uncover evidence of al-qaeda direction.
This then gets spun in the anti-Bush/Blair MSM as a positive assertion that in fact al-qaeda had no role in the attack.
Kind of like the weapons of mass destruction issue. The Duelfer team indicates that the investigation does not uncover evidence of stockpiles, and then the MSM reports this as a positive assertion that Saddam did not in fact have them.
yes they did, but you have to listen to officer brady when he says "move along people, nothing to see here"
Memo to Bin Ladin:
Sorry.
You can come out of hiding now.
Are they still trying to figure out if there was a Muslim link?
Well then, these terrorists must have been just your average members of the 'Religion of Peace'...
But then who doesn't know that except George Bush...
There's no way the London or Madrid or NYC bombers ever even read, or followed, the same instruction manual, aka---
Sura 9:5 of the Koranus, Slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush.
Yes, and bin Laden's objective has always been to foment independent actions just like this. There's undoubtedly an ideological connection, and that's good enough for me. The left is still obsessed with the idea of combating Islamist terrorism with police instead of military. They rationalize that the number of deaths western societies are taking are insignificant, and that Islamists are reasonable people who would never employ the weapons of mass destruction they don't have and will never obtain. The left is setting the west up for a massive Darwin Award.
I knew it! First there were no WMDs and now it wasn't al-Qaeda! HAD TO BE BUSH! By the way, Holocaust wasn't real...Global Warming is going to destroy the world...abortion is a civil-right...our borders don't need ot be protected you bunch racists...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...yada...
Exactly what I was thinking.

I'm not sure that the headline that the Sydney Morning Herald has chosen to lead with is an accurate reflection of the contents of the actual story.
