London Power Blackout Halts Subway Services, Spokesman Says
Aug. 28 (Bloomberg) -- A power blackout in central and southwest London has halted subway services, a London Underground spokesman said.
The majority of London Underground networks are affected, said the spokesman, who declined to be identified. Trains are stuck in tunnels, the spokesman said. The power failure was caused by a National Grid circuit failure, the spokesman said.

Think we will begin to gain more allies after the bombing of Jordan's Embassy in Iraq, Marriot Hotel in Bali, India bombing on Monday, UN Headquarters last week in Iraq, blackout in NYC week before, and now UK Business District.
Remember the Al Qaida did claim to go for the Business District and UN in our US blackout and would not disclose how they did it so they could use it again. Actually Russia experienced a blackout in last couple of week also that got no air time as usual. A little coincidental...
People are surely beginning to be shaken awake with the extent of the global network of terrorism.

The fact that Fox News keeps telling me to not be suspicious is making me suspicious. If there's nothing suspicious, then why do they need to keep telling me there's nothing suspicious? Yeah, right. They haven't given a cause, so presumably they don't know yet, but somehow there's nothing suspicious. I find that suspicious.

Same day as U.S. blackout.
Same cities with sleeper cells blackout (London, Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, all of Canada).
Same time of day (rush hour).

Sorry, but we will wait til it slaps us in the face again. Have you heard the "Saudi's are your friends" commercials on the radio? I might have asked you before. I get a little senile at times.

The EU are realigning their relationship with US as we speak. They are meeting in DC with new draft.
I anticipate countries will fall in line now at a more accelerated pace. The Bali Bomber thanking the anti-war protestors for their support yesterday will wake SOME of the crowd up, that are aligning with the enemy and fighting the free world. They won't know what "dictator" is until a "Sadam" ruled over them.

Boy what a coincident! Kinda scary, no?
