I just heard about this on the radio. All I heard was that there were three bombs and that some subway stations were evacuated.

Expressen (a swedish tabloid) writes about a nail bomb and shootings (?)...

Fortunately, there are no reports of injured or dead persons... Let's hope it stays that way...

University College Hospital cordoned off as well, and reports of armed police going in.

My personal theory, someone tried to copy 7/7 but didn't have a decent bomb maker (at least the Warren St sounds like it), so just his detonator went off. he got injured, taken to UCH and now they're cordonning that off.

Terrorist's say they'll continue doing this, and taking hostages and executing, ambassadors like one from Egypt, againsy all nations involved in Afghanistan and Iraq.
What does this mean?
It means that even if Bush and Blair had plans to pull out, now they can't.
Why is that?
Have you ever seen a child throw a tantrum, wanting something? What happens if the parent gives in iver the tantrum?
The child throws a tantrum each time they want something. This is fact. Learned behavior. They found it works on getting what they want.
In that line of thought, pull out now, terrorists have learned, want something? Execute hostages and blow up innocents.

Italy is next, so they've said, as far as bombings.
Ambassadors are fair game.

Whoever did this, whether mere detonations, explosions on a lesser scale or whatever, have terrorized.

Though I hate to say this at such a sensitive time , this slow bloodletting will finally make you see what India has been through for the past almost thirty years . Let's see how long the West can cope with it and still retain its cultural sanity . I hope it holds out long enough .

The terrorists' hope is that they will foment Western retaliation and prejudice against all Muslims peacful or not. When otherwise peaceful Muslim experience this Western backlash, this will help the terrorists recruit for their hateful missions...

I don't have a link, Ninot.
I read it after the confirmation of the execution of the Egyptian envoy.
Choose not to believe it without, I guess that's fine.
It happening isn't really contingent on anyone believing.

I said this before, as have many others.
We can't let this become a "Muslim" thing.
This is a tiny percentage of people bastardizing their religion.
I'm Christian, but I'm certainly disgusted by Ku Klux Klan, who warp reading from our Bible in an effort to legitamize their actions and beliefs.
Again, they are a very small percentage.

We had the IRA for the best part of 30 years, we'll cope with few more nutters.
