They said they were small explosions.

Okay, then I agree with mware, it could be a series of small dirty bombs designed to contaminate a large area. Or it could be small explosions designed to disburse a bio agent. Again, let's just hope not. This wouldn't be good.

I wonder what the actual reaction would be if we really cracked down on Muslims here in the US. Maybe there's a silent majority who'd cheer Bush.

"He told me he had seen a man carrying a rucksack which suddenly exploded. It was a minor explosion but enough to blow open his rucksack. Everyone rushed from the carriage. People evacuated very quickly. There was no panic.

"I didn't see anyone injured but there was shock and fright.

"There was a smell of smoke."

"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed.

Reuters is reporting that one of the bombs was a nail bomb, according to FOX.

This is just horrible. Those poor people in London.

Maybe this isn't the time to say this but,I prefer Bush's hardass "Bring it on" attitude than the Brits, "Measured response" attitude. Its obvious what attitude the terrorists prefer.

My prayers are with the Brits.

I didn't think the cops carried guns.

I was just thinking that. It may be another splinter group from Al Qaeda looking for headlines, and hastily put this together in light of 7/7.

They are reporting that the explosions were the detonators and that most of the bombs did not explode.

They are chasing suspects.

So far no major reports of casualties. Seems to be either a smalltime op or a terror attack that dudded out. Hopefully anyhow...
