Cheers. First thing I did was ring my mum. More because she would want to know that I'm ok, and I know that she wouldn't have been in london.

You got me thinking though. I just rang my bandleader who works at the BBC in white city. He told me he got the train there, and guess what. His first connection got to kings cross at 8.15am. That's 35 minutes before that bomb went off at kings cross. :icon28:

Both db's and tb's statements have an air of stupidity surrounding them.

Anyway, hope everyone over there is okay.

ACTION NEWS!... at least i know what's going on when i'm watching BBC without scene changes every second.

i hope everyone gets out safe and alive -- everyone on q3w and thier families, friends, friends-of-friends.
Blamed? They often take responsibility...

nvm..see this has been discussed.

to be fair to tinfoil hat mom, al-qaeda is largely a fiction. it's a convenient label for bush/blair because it gives the impression there's a clearly defined enemy out there rather than a nebulous bunch of muppets who think alike, and it's convenient for the muppets because they think it'll scare us.

I don't disagree with the concept behind your post, but why do you say that Al-Qaeda is mostly ficitonal? What evidence do you have to support this? Why IS Geoof such a useless fag?

for those among you who are able to read german, here's a rather amusing overview of today's media coverage, generated by german newspaper FAZ:

loosely translated by me:

[~ the text before was refering to translation problems]

"They called it a 'Tube' ", said an n-tv-man astounded, "They've been locked up in such a 'Tube'. How would one have to imagine this?"
