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.

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


The G8 summit will go ahead.

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'

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.

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.

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

Some european jihad extremists have claimed responsibility

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.
