A comet is miles wide and not trying to hide in a hole in the ground? Shut up and eat your scones.

How typical was it that all of its 12,000 servicemen stationed in Britain should be banned from travelling within the M25 for five days, as Londoners tried to show the terrorists and the wider world that life goes on as normal?

Since life isn't going on normally, no matter how hard they pretend, wouldn't keeping 12,000 American servicemen (and girls) out of the way for a few days be helpful?

And wouldn't the British tabs be incensed if some Brits were killed in attempt to get at some of our guys?

We're in a no-win situation with papers like the Mirror.

Screw'em.

Even childish rants sometimes have a poignancy to them, methinks.
Anyway, the comet with a beard thing was funny though.

PS: No excuse for not getting Osama's head on a spear for display as star exhibit at the Ground Zero Museum, IMHO.

In the US, moonbats only have places like Kos and the Democratic Underground. In the UK, they can write for the Daily Mirror and get paid.

Of course it would in addition to the fact that Americans of any stripe are targets, they are even more a target if they are military personel.

Just typical mindnumbing leftist droolings........

Uhm... What do you call a person who is part of the very hypocrisy they condemn?

Somehow I don't think killing bin Laden will "end" the War on Terror.

Don't worry, we will bail you out when you need it again. It's just because we like your music...

ONE thing you learn when disaster strikes is how right you were about the dodgy specimens in your midst.

Gimme a break - you're just another vapid leftist using the mangled bodies of your countrymen to promote your political agenda.

So why is bin Laden free to organise or inspire attacks on the free world?

Oh, I dunno. Maybe because of bogus intelligence information we got from your country? Just a thought.

Seriesly though, this guy doesn't speak for all of Britain. He's probably wearing a Michael Moore t-shirt.

Commentators labelled "Londonistan"

Best line of the article. Not far from true.

Gee, I dunno mate....How is it that the Brit contingent in Afghanistan hasn't got him yet...or the Frenchies or anyone else besides us?
I would imagine the order not to go to London was to prevent any one of your whiners from creating an mob incident where our boys might be attacked.

Only jerks would now try to call it something else, like being chicken.

His head on a pike, my FRiend - his head on a pike.

There's a right way, and a wrong way, of accomplishing any task.

I watch Fox News, so correct me if I'm wrong: I haven't heard much of anyone demonizing London for it's tolerance of Muslims.

I did see on Drudge where some people beat up and killed a Muslim. I think that was in England.
