I heard Police are telling people there not to use cellphones...and come to think of it since cellphones can be used as remote triggers I wonder if it wouldnt be SOP nowadays for authorities to shut off cell towers [if that is possible?] around suspected terrorist incident sites?

Warren Street - no idea as of this time. I think this is the clue that will lead us to those scumbags.

Earl Warren? Suuuuuupreme Court? (Look at the fuss we're going through to replace one 'Justice'. If we suddenly had to replace all nine our government would grind to a permanent halt!)

The answer, in the end, is simple. To paraphrase an ignoble verse from Mein Quran, "Smite the jihadists wherever they are to be found".

BBC: Blair to meet with press and make an announcement in about 20 minutes. COBRA meeting apparently over for the immediate time. Jack Straw seen leaving Number 10 Downing Street.

I agree with you. It's time to pulvarize all the training facilities, planning locations and their mosques if need be. I suggested wiretapping all Western mosques earlier, but I'd definitely go along with flattening them! I've had it! And I think many others have too! I hope our leaders are listening.

James Street - the quarterback who engineered Texas 15-14 win over Arkansas in 1969

AHA!!! Arkansas, home of Bill Clinton.

Kelly, It sounds like they have the situation in hand.

Your special unit police are the best.

I did hear of an arrest at the hospital (too early to tell if accurate info or not.)

It was mentioned on another thread by another freeper that Warren = Warning. Warning to Bush in Oval office. That is what someone else mentioned.

According to Richard Miniter in "Shadow War" Richard Reid was a test balloon, to test our air security.

No raised alert in this country according to Chertoff.

Won't be until it's way too late, IMHO..

CNN banner: Pentagon is beefing up security. No specific threat.

[And no sign of terrorism, of course.]

fwiw: this is from the blog "Gawker"....

http://www.gawker.com/
Since our trust in Matt and Katie and the Today gang is slowly waning, a reader in London emails with the local BBC reports:

University College Hospital has apparently been flooded by police, possibly because a suspect’s gone in there for treatment. Police tape up all over the place.
The Warren Street tube is getting reports of a guy’s backpack making an exploding noise (possibly while still ON HIS BACK), splitting, and then smelling awful. Then the train pulled into the station and they all ran for it.

The 26 bus had a backpack left on the back seat, and some people are saying that the windows are blown out at the back of the bus.

Oval, it sounds like some guy made a run for it, leaving a rucksack behind?

Shepherds Bush, no idea, but I live about a minute away and we’re getting no sirens or ambulances or anything. It’s the Hammersmith and City branch of Shepherds Bush, though, NOT the more active hub on the Central line. Above ground, though.

The Tube workers are apparently getting some sort of message that the explosions are due to nail bombs which had detonators (hence the loud noise) but no explosives, so it just sounded like a firecracker and then smelled horrendous. They’re saying “dummy nail bombs”.

There are general reports of panicky-looking young asian men (late teens, early 20s) being chased out of tube stations by fellow passengers?

That’s about it. Let’s do this again, shall we? In a fortnight, then. Bah.


We feel so news-y right now. Maybe we really are in the bizarro 8th dimension!

Why are they doing that if there is no threat?
