I lived in London until November of last year, and I'm currently talking on msn to a couple of friends who are still there - everyone has been knocked sick by this.

England has spent many years dealing with terrorism when the IRA were still on their reign of terror, but at least (and this doesn't make what they did right by any means) when they intended on blowing things up, they would issue a warning of a bomb beforehand AND admit responsibility after it.

One of the worst things about this is not knowing for sure why it's happened or who has done it. We can theorise and assume it's AQ or its numerous variations to our heart's content, but until someone actually comes out and admits responsibility..... well, I'm sure you know what I mean.

I personally don't think this is the whole of it - I even wonder if it's a diversion to take our attention away from something bigger.
