Gee, I wonder who planted this “device?”
Amish? Catholics? Baptists? Quakers? Anglicans?
You don’t suppose it was Muslims, do you? (major league sarcasm)
It is believed that a major terrorist attack in the heart of the capital has been thwarted.
Sources say the perpetrators were not Irish, suggesting Islamic extremists were behind the potential attack, outside an American Express foreign exchange.
Sky's Tim Marshall said: "No doubt this was an attempted terror attack."
He said the target was probably civilians because there are no major political institutions in the area.

“London ‘bomb’ made safe by police”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The Haymarket is in London’s theatreland, close to the busy Piccadilly Circus.”
On Fox News, it looks like a big blue tent in the middle of a street, next to a door entrance to a building. Sky News reporters saying this is the center of London tourist visits, and a device going off with this area filled with people, as it normally is, would have been devastating.
Uh-oh!

Didn’t they arrest somebody in the NE area of the US, just yesterday, because the guy had 1000 lbs of potassium nitrate stored near his home?
American media will cover this for 5 minutes, then move on to what really interests them: Hilton, Obama, and Jolie.
Thank God this device didn’t go off. Kudos to the brave police officers who manually defused the device.
Well, if somehow they can tie Princess Di into the story, Fox news can get Geraldo to cover this for two, maybe three weeks.
Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but the timing is interesting. I wonder if the purpose of the bomb was to see what this new guy (Brown) is made of?
Welcome to the real world, Gordon Brown. All your talk of education and health care last Sunday seems so long ago.
CNN is reporting that the vehicle was discovered by “happenstance”.
Sort of like the Ft. Dix situation being unraveled by a pizza guy.

All the $billions spent by the British and American governments on ‘security’. Yet two potentially major attacks are foiled by vigilant citizens.
I wonder how long it will be before the citizens of the UK rise up and put a stop to the traitorous muzzies that they have opened their doors and their hearts up to. You only get 1 chance to sh$$ on me before you are on my sh$$ list.

Waiting for Ron Paul to say it is all the Brits’ fault.
A gift for the new Prime Minister, no doubt.
Johnny Edwards....will he send his wife out to claim this is just another example of ‘bumper stickers’?
Will he say anything at all?
Will he get another $400 haircut in response?
Stay tuned....
