I hope noone is affected by this, so far there has been 6 trains exploded and 2 busses. 40 have been killed and over a hundred injured.

Al qaeda has claimed that it was their doing.

Oh dear.

thats over a hundred seriously injured, the acctual number of injured is around 1000

or, as the beeb puts it (who are mostly reliable)

300 minor injuries.
45 serious injuries.
30 odd dead.

hmm, sky news has 45 dead, 160 odd serious and 1000 injured, even if it is just cuts and scrapes.

Ah, beeb just sort of explained why thier figures are so low, they said they can't confirm anything involving the bus atm.

Yeah, sky, we can trust sky. of course.



either way, give it a few days for the numbers to get sorted.

whatever it is, its all worring

Basically it's a fucked up shitty situation, and let's just hope nobody here is affected by it.

No matter which way you look at Terrorism, it can not be excused, and I just hope they get the fuckers that did this narf

In a sadistic way, this may turn out to be a positive thing, as having so many of the big leaders together at the time of it happening, may make the anti-terrorism horses more resourceful and stronger.

If most countries were to group together and share there knowledge of Terrorist organisations, perhaps the world may finally be able to stamp out terrorism.

However I think terrorism is a very hard thing to stamp out entirely, as there will always be splinter groups, and religious fanatics with nothing better to do than to kill people because of their beliefs/faith.

I for one wont be like everybody else moaning about George Bush interfering etc... as I welcome the help of the Yanks and any other country that wishes to help us find out who did this.

It's time for everyone to unite and get a "real" governing body over the affairs of the world in general.

Okay I'm waffling now....

*shuts up*

my girlfriend was going to go to one of the stations tomorrow :/

was quite worried for a while before i could get incontact with her

These here death tolls seem to be based of Some Bloke Down The Pub's estimates of what might sound good on the front of the Daily Mail.

*hands out salt* you'll be needing a lot of this if you're going to keep an eye on this story.

Is there any slugs that need getting rid of then?

I've heard of this. I can only remember waking up to hear the Oklahoma City bombing and 9/11, and it's just the sickest feeling I can imagine.

My the lost rest in peace...

I, for one, will not allow these events to effect my working life in London, they will not scare me.

Hats off to the emergency services who I'm sure saved more lives than the terrorist took.

my personal guess is 125+ dead. have you seen how many people are on those trains at that hour? i dont fancy the chance of anybody on that bus. lucky to survive on the bottom, on the top you would of been liquidated. this is truely sickening.
all they have done is pissed on the head of a venomous snake, just watch the SAS bring bin laden home like they did sadam

kudos to the emergency services too, they had quite a battle plan laid out and have made the best of the worst situation

BBC says:

- 37 Confirmed Dead
- 700 Injured
- Unknown amount killed in bus attack
- 45 Seriously injured. 6 of which are critical, 3 in intensive care, 13 in theatre

This is shocking, and hopefully the G8 leaders can help us in search for these idiotic extremists.

I just hope no one on 5punk is affected, and my thoughts are with those people who are.

I think this will help push the chances of getting I.D. cards in place. And after this, i'm more for them.

id cards?

what use would they be in a situation like this?

if anything, give everyone dog tags - at least they're proven in explosions strong enough to blow people's limbs off.

Well, maybe they can implement them with the travel networks, so anyone who buys a ticket will be logged, so if a bomb goes off, they can track them.

yeah, i'll go in for that...

i always fancied moving away from the uk

i think they were all suicide bombers anyway
it wont do any good, but it will do mr blairs image good. any stand he can be seen to make is a good one. i forget what it was exactly, but there was somthing up in the world so the prime minister set up its own special 'cabinet' for discussing and dealing with that problem. what he didnt say is that it only consisted of a phone and nothing else

They still don't know, and they think it could of been set off by mobile phones, like in Madrid.
