London Bombings

Do you think these bombings were an inside job in order to keep up the war on terror and so that Bush does not have to send money to Africa and can keep polluting like crazy?

My god, why is this London blast being talked about in the same breath as 9/11? Do people have a collective short memory? Does anyone remember when IRA and Algerian subway and bomb attacks were common in England, France and Spain? This was like a lemonade stand being knocked over compared to 9/11.

And why would the G8 or UN give a crap about Africa? The powers that be have no real interest in helping to stem the genocide, famine and AIDS crisis going on in Africa. Heck, some evidence poitns toward AIDS being a lab engineered disease.

I dont think the London Attacks were an inside job...it was just a normal day in Israel in the scehem of things.

look, Somewhereinbetween, I know i got quite a bit out of hand with my rantings earlier. as i'm sure you saw, your comments about our government really angered me.

what i was trying to say was that i was deeply offended by your remarks earlier. all of what i said was in defence of my country, which, i know, doesn't excuse it, but thats my reason.

please accept my apology and in the future, i would greatly appreciate it if you would just be a little more respectful when talking about other countries. i know you wouldn't want people going around dismissing canada as a nation of fools, now would you?

Sincerest Apologies,

Accepted.

But! your apology is meaningless if in fact this offering of yours still holds fast to your earlier position that I was disrespectful to your country. Aside from which, if this is what you want from me, then it stands to reason that you want the same of everyone, in which case, I am willing to grant that you solicit a like respect from your fellow Americans on this board when it comes to other nations. All you need do is provide your posts attesting to this, and I will admit that you truly are fair, otherwise, I can provide link after link where your brethren do in fact attempt to dismiss Canada and Canadians as well as Spain; France and all Arab nations.

Do not attempt to give with one hand and take it back with the other.

People are people no matter what country you are in. There are good guys and bad guys all across the globe.

Ah, you make a good point, I hadn't thought of it that way. I will make a point to, when I see disreespect of a nation, ask of those people what I have asked of you.

Thanks

And I thank you for that.

I am well pleased to have found a rare occassion where my adversary and I actually hold like conditions, and while we may not agree philosophically, I extend my respect.

I extend my respect.

Thank you, as do I.

cheers,

It's immense compared to the size of what's been done

It's the jolt against the Motherland
The source of all evil

wrong thread sorry....

It is more than that. It's also a tool to further decrease freedom of speech, just like 9/11.

Look I don't like the Bush administration, but I highly doubt that they organized terror attacks in the UK. If they were going to do it, why so small?

It probably was MI6 that took charge of the bombings, possible with CIA help. As the MI6 budget is not as large as the CIA budget, that could explain the small size. Another explanation is that it was just an excercise for greater attacks to follow.

I understand that people don't like George Bush, but blaiming every terrorist attack on him is a little far fetched.

Who else did it, then? MI6 and/or CIA involvement is much more likely than Al Qaeda involvement. The attack shows all signs of a black ops action.

Because of the complexity of the attack. This attack was a lot more complex than the average car bomb.

i dont tink it was as big as 9/11
