Boon Mee Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Yep...all George Bush's fault... Yeah, you're right. This time around it's obviously Iran's fault (or maybe Syria or North Korea's?) Or should we bomb Iraq again? Those types of things obviously solve problems, because after our occupation of 2 countries there have been no more terrorist attacks... oops! Can't deny the insidious links between latte liberals and murderous Islamists. As long as there are enablers and appeasers about, we'll always have this sh1t...

camerata Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 If anyone wants to bring themselves up to speed on Osama and his buddies I highly recommend Al-Qaeda: Casting a Shadow of Terror by Jason Burke. It paints a depressing picture of Gulf businessmen financing myriad groups of would-be martyrs, of which Al-Qaeda is just the most prominent example. Catching Osama won't stop this. Another excellent book which gives a broader overview of Islam and the grievances of Muslims is The Crisis of Islam : Holy War and Unholy Terror by Bernard Lewis.

sadman Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Scampy, I'm in South East London at the moment. More by luck than judgement, I was out of the main office and in Bromley. All our people in town are ok and say that the biggest worry is being unable to tell their families that they're ok, as the phones are jammed solid. I'm trying to do it for them, with limited success. Don't sweat it, mate. All will be well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatosed drifter Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Sick twisted individuals, G8 and London’s victory in the Olympic bid, the whole country was on a high now thanks to these <deleted> we are on a down. I hope they find every last one and stick them in a jail to rot away as slowly and gracelessly as they deserve.

The Gentleman Scamp Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I dread the day it happens in Bangkok. That will be the day that Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos are grateful that they are not so wealthy and westernised. I'm sitting by a top floor window, police cars and an empty bus have gone past. Tony Blair just gave another speech with all the world leaders standing solemly behind him, Bush and chiraq bookending him left and right. That inevitable favourite word 'barbaric' came up, but condemnation of AQ goes without saying so I think it's pointless to comment on how evil they are etc... etc... What are we going to do is what we want our leader to tell us. It is however plain to see that Blair dearly cares about Britain and it feels good to have him in charge and was touching to see the other G8 leaders behind him, great feeling of unity.

What do you mean by grievances of Muslims? Israel, the occupation and carving up of Arab lands by colonial powers, despotic leaders, poverty, etc, etc. Many of them are still pissed off about the Crusades!

comatosed drifter Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Guys, even if they did get a warning, this is London, if somebody phones up and says "a bomb will go off" what the heck can you do? Even if they said "in a subway" in minutes, what could you do? Hindsight is a wonderful, but very dangerous, thing, people would be faultless if the laws of it could be turned to reality (and Man Utd would NEVER lose!)!
