Well, according to Channel 4 news, a "previously unknown
group" has claimed responsibility, saying that it was acting
"in the name of al Qa'eda". Although they got that from an
Italian news source.

Israel warned of attacks

The warning contradicts the fact that the original
explanation of a power surge went out for an hour or more.
They knew it was an attack but put out a false explanation.
Plus why did Netanyahu get a warning and the victims didn't?


1. Death count figures help political agendas.
2. Involving Israel would have been a big mistake.

well i hope its closer to the 2 number. usually the first
reports after this kind of thing are pretty blown out of
proportion. i remember when the 9-11 story broke they were
reporting 9 hijacked planes and additional attacks on the
empire state building and the sears tower in chicago.

20 dead, and my father who works at Aldgate said there were
body parts around the tube station. It's horrific. he only
missed the blast by a few minutes. I hope everyone is ok on
here.
It was on my usual tube-route so v. scary.
As for Olympics, I think any major public event is at risk
and just thank god it wasn't at the Live 8 concert. That
could have killed thousands. Compared to madrid we escaped
lightly. All this for fucking Blair lap-dogging to Bush in
not a "quid pro quo situation". fucker. Not even a
concession on global warming.

They're trying to down play it to stop panic, i think. If
it's true that a whole top deck of a bus was blown of at
Russ. Sq. then it can't have been such low casualties. It
hit rush hour and everything.

I have seen some the pictures of one of the buses, no-one
would have survived that.

exactly. 7 explosions at rush hour with 2 people killed?
That would be a miracle. It sounds like the blitz outside.
Emergency vehicles everywhere. No one is allowed to call 999
because they're at full stretch. It must be worse than
they're letting on. Poor poor people.

is this reliable?

Only 4 of the 7 reported explosions have been confirmed,
according to Charles Clarke.

[UPDATE]

My dad is all fine. When I spoke to him he wasn't in london
but he said he was on his way. I said "what?!" and he was
like "it's ok, it's all stopped now". However, I don't
reckon he'll have much luck getting there. He's crazy!

My friend who was on his way to london this morning didn't
manage to get far but he was on his way to one of the
stations that got hit.

so, all fine here

I don't know 20 are dead. just listening to the radio. there
are so many conflicting reports and that was the latest. No
idea whether any of its accurate, since there's been limited
official statements. Sorry if I've misinformed.

uhm, i'm not trying to be a pedantic asshole, but having a

No, sorry, I didn't mean to imply that.

I meant to say that they're not glossing over the facts of
the current right-wing American administration.

They're not making anything up, either.

This morning I travelled, on a train, through Kings Cross,
Liverpool Street, Moorgate and Aldgate East. This was at
8:30 because my mainline train was late.

What a sweeping, ignorant statement -

you might want to read up on the terror attacks perpetrated
by the US and Israel against Arab countries that have
brought this horrible situation about, before writing
bullshit like that.
