I should point out that whilst this does fit the bill of being Islamic terrorists that doesn't necessarily mean that its Al-Queda. There are a variety of different nutcase organisations who could have wanted to blow up London and disrupt the G8 - Islamic terrorists are no more one monolithic bloc than us white guys are. Also, the fact that they've claimed responsibility for it doesn't necessarily mean it was them as they're in a no lose situation by claiming responsibility. I would expect a large number of equally horrendouse groups will claim responsibility for the bombings, and the fact that Al-Queda will be the most famous of them does not make it certain they are the ones telling the truth.#

And don't let the little "Location" entry below fool you - I just haven't updated it since I left London last year. I don't live there anymore, and I'm quite safe from terrorists up here in York. The last people to attack this place were the Vikings, and no ones been back since as far as I'm aware. My sympathies to those who still live in London. Any news from Epona?
