London Explosion (6 Viewers)

[Rafy]

Blair has reffered to them as TErrorist attacks

He will leave the G8 summit.

I'm really paranoid that it'll be Australia next. Very paranoid.

until there is a group who claims responsibility or concrete circumstances established for why it occurred, don't be.

for now, it is an isolated incident in london. once motive and perpetrators are established then it can be looked at in relation to the rest of the world.

"Good reasons"?! I thought I'd seen it all from you, but nothing makes death and complicated destruction OK. You can't justify it by saying "Oh well, they're dying for a cause and they're going to paradise where 72 girls will be waiting for them, so I guess it's OK they just killed 3000 people".

Whilst i dont agree with the majority of terrorist acts, i do believe there are times when terrorism is an ethically viable and morally justifiable act, but lets not get into semantics, events like London are somewhat struck out of such justifications.

 

[jumb]

I doubt this is terrorist related though.

Famous last words.

And Bali in the middle of them. and btw it was 9/11/01 and then Bali 13/10/02 and then today.. (thats if its linked as a terrorist attack)

11/9/01

British Prime Minister Tony Blairs says there has been a series of "barbaric" terrorist attacks in London


The G8 summit will go ahead.

spoke well though

its affected the G8 summit, with Blair leaving so if that was part of their aim... its been partly achieved.

 

[White Rabbit]

It was terrorism, theres no way 7 explosions can occur so close together and not be terrorist related. They're saying it's Al Queda (don't correct the spelling, I know it's wrong and I can't be bothered googling the right spelling). What terrorists mustn't realise is everytime they do this, they piss of the 'western commoners' who'd normally be against war of terror, and simply encourage more war.

Tony Blair actually looked shocked and upset, unlike Bush in 01'

 

[ur_inner_child]

see it wouldve been all cute and stuff if it were

11/9/01

12/10/03

and the 13/11/05

bit it wasnt and i doubt terrorists actually sit down and play with numbers to make it look spooky

sorry im still dragging the number thing.
that post made me feel a lot dumber after reading it

 

[jumb]

I love reading all these paranoid number patterns that people come up with. By your logic, we can expect to experience another 100 or so attacks by the end of the year, because of coincidental numbers.

 

[RyBo]

I totally agree. with antimathmite

 

[AsyLum]

It’s simply a case of “we are jealous that you have life so good, when we are a violent women raping culture, so we are going to try to bring you into our violent life style by bombing you”.

And for everyones information, i am being quite restrained now, only because we don't know for certain who did it.

That's the very line of thought which perpetuates violence in this world. Ignorance and the complete disparity between cultures and societies.

 

[Rafy]

A statement has appeared on a website of al'qaeda in europe claiming reponsibility

 

[White Rabbit]

About Australia being attacked - we're too far away from anything for anyone to give a fuck.

Some european jihad extremists have claimed responsibility

 

[RyBo]

yeah, it a bit hard to understand or sympathise or not be "ignorant" of a "culture" (terrorists don't have culture, they have chaos)

that believes in destroying the western world because some of us happen to be christian or Jewish.

If there culture is so great, go and live with them.

I concur muchly.

A statement has appeared on a website of al'qaeda in europe claiming reponsibility

does this mean we invade another totally unrelated nation AGAIN?
