My daughter was in England last April. Glad she's home now.

Yeah, I'm glad she is too...a parent's worst nightmare is a child in harm's way!

five arrests--so far.

i know we've had a couple threads on here lately knocking some 'keystone kops', but from what i hear, a policeman was a true hero in this event--got in the car and dismantled the bomb before it could go off, risking his life in the process. seems a shame that idiots get the press, while many more don't get the credit they deserve for a thankless job.

I also agree. Let's not forget the tow truck operator that took one of the cars to a car park. Lucky!
If all of the "terrorists" are equally inept (and I don't think they are) they would be unable to use their greatest weapon, FEAR.
People in England have seen this before. Carry on.
Fear only has power when it is allowed to cause one to feel it.

The British appear to be very thorough. Scotland Yard takes its time so the fact they have made so many arrests so far confirms lots of blatant evidence. Very interesting they have arrested doctors.

I hope the British carry this as far as possible with so much evidence. With so many people involved, you know others knew what was going on and did not inform the authorities. They need to round them all up. A country cannot tolerate people who know innocent people are being targeted by a friend, etc... and sit passively, or they get interviewed and lie to hide the terrorists.
Dig deep on this one. The opportunity is there.

The best thing for that country would be for those demons to hire HandShadow Darden as their defense attorney.

does anyone else admire the way the British respond? They are so quick, professional, competent, effective. I don't know, its just something I've noticed over the years. When Scotland Yard is on the case you can rest assured that they'll get to the bottom of it.
