At least one- her father and brother and grandfather were interviewed on television last night outside the East London mosque in Whitechapel. She had been on the tube at Aldgate on her way to work.
The attack was unreservedly condemned at Friday prayers by the mosque's imam.

about all these attacks. First on the list would be the iraq one. greek journalists had free passage everywhere and some of them did very daring stuff like going exactly to the places the angloamericans bombarded. that was foolish but it provided us shocking images with babies being blown apart, the screaming pain of black clad mothers seeing their children dismebered etc. These are all in the archives btw and were all shown on TV.
I particulalry remember a journalist running down a street as the angloamericans were bombarding it and other people were running too and there was a young Iraqi who saw the greek journalist running with his microphone and commenting and went straight to him shouting "**** USA" (apparently mistaking him for american). he was saved after he shouted back "yunan! yunan!" which is what greece is called in iraqi I guess.
Next were the blasts in constantinople/Istabul. those were shocking too because they were so close, actually they were exactly outside our door. those were frightening indeed and seeing what they caused was bad enough. to the honest greek I think there was also compassion much like when the earthquakes hit both countries. the turks didnt owe nothing to have to go through this.
next came the attacks on spain. those were just surreal. freakish.
then the "you're going to fail athens 2004, greeks" english got bombed. again deplorable no matter how you feel about that country.
now I'm afraid something could happen to Italy but that rascal berlusconi was quick to say he'll diminish italian presence in iraq. so hopefully maybe that will be enough.
for some reason I'm not at scared about Denmark. I just don't think it fits. Of course there was no way I could say that Spain of all placed would get attacked. The instant the spanish police invaded that appartment where the terrorists were hiding and the latter blew themselves up was dramatic too.

So what are you saying?
a) that I'm lying
or
b) that what we saw on TV were staged?
b) would be the ultimate hiding your head in the sand on your part! If you think it's a) you can ask for the videos at the chanels! Most were private btw.

Ming thinks that whatever I say that it isn't in favor of whatever he thinks it should be, I'm trolling. But out of curiosity, what exactly is your objection?

Just listened to a description of the recovery efforts under King's Cross. It sounds like it could be the closest thing to Dante's hell around.
60C, dark, people that died more than two days ago and are mostly not in one piece, vermin (rats i guess), I did wish i wasn't eating my dinner whilst watching the news.

But I guess one poster lately thinks he's so very special. Let's see what Ming says. |
Don't bother - guess that paikitis is trying to climb into yet another bottle of raki.
On topic, it seems that earlier claims of widespread timing of the explosions was wrong - instead of a 50 minutes interval, it now seems that it was 50 secs. That makes more sense - if it was 50 mins, there would have been time enough to evacuate.

paiktis, people like you with no respect for human life and emotions should not post in these threads.

Well they have, as the Chechen rebels supposedly received AQ funding as well.

It doesn't bear thinking about, does it? How you go down into something like that and then turn up for work the next days is beyond belief. |
I wouldn't be able to, that's for sure. Strong stomach I have, but maybe not that strong.
