Originally by: Sydonis I'm surprised they didn't aim at Edinburgh or even at the G8 itself.
Too hard a target, probably. Far easier to use it as a distraction and slip under the net in London while the security forces are busy protecting the summit.
In most case's making a attack on the Capital City where security is normally better is sending a bigger message, hence London/madrid ect, NEw york unfortunatly while not the Capital of the USA is its most widely known city.

God, I hope everyone is ok. That's some scary ****. Also in DC, noticed that Crystal City/Pentagon City were a lot more protected then usual. Crazy.

Edited by: MIGHTYDWC on 07/07/2005 14:13:57 I was too lazy to look around the forums and see if there was another post about this, sorry for the wrong placement. Here's what I said.
Hopefully i'm putting this in the right section, but my thoughts and prayers to anyone who was directly affected by today's cowardly acts of murder and mayhem today in London, including their friends and or family members. Im sure we all at some point and time fight each other somewhere somehow in this universe of EVE, but i'm sure the whole will agree with me in saying this.

Originally by: corporal hicks I think really you should lay off the IRA topic, The IRA's agenda as regards the UK was to hurt the English Tax payer causing enough damage that they hoped the English people would just say to hell with this give them back Northren Ireland, people were killed and hurt but warnings were given in 99% of the incidents. I am not condoning this in anyway just showing the difference the IRA are as much Scum as the rest.
The IRA started giving warnings when people stopped believing them when they claimed responsibility after the fact. There was a joke that they would claim responsibility for your car backfiring.
They have shot babies at point blank range, blown the legs of pregnant women and more. Their warnings are always ambiguous and frequently fail to save lives, because they don't care how many people they kill, as long as they spread terror.
Sorry, but I've heard the 'warnings = not wanting to kill' fallacy too many times.

Edited by: Princess Beefcurtains on 07/07/2005 15:19:02 I would just like to add my condolances to anyone affected by this attrocity and my heart goes out to their friends and families. this is obviously a shakey time for us Brits and of course many people are worried about their safety. I expect it has already been suggested, but I would like to ask if CCP would be willing to post a News item on the home page to inform those who may not be aware of the attacks. This is being reported as the most deadly terrorist attack in Brittain ever. Let's all take a little time to think of those affected. Thanks

I just got home from London, watching the rest of it unfold. The people who did this do not deserve the life they have been given to live on this planet. they are a truely disgusting source of humanity. I have checked the rest of my family and they are ok. My heart goes out to all those with loved ones caught up in it. --------------------------------

CNN is quoting people as saying that bus went "airborne" when the bomb went off.
I'm not being pessimistic when I say the bus alone will probably double that 33 fatalities... it was a packed double decker, after all.

My dad went to London for the first time in ages. Was about to get on the tube when it all started. Now hes stranded with 20p and they wont let him get his car out the car park, looks like he got off easy. Know a few people that take the tube, hopefully they will be allright.
My thought are with everyone involved with the inncodent. -----

What you are dealing with now are extremists, something the IRA are not, they do not do suicide Bombs and all that stuff, drawing comparrisons between the two is pointless as already pointed out these Islamic fundamentalists are the extreame of Terrorism.
Now not getting into a Political debate as its againest forum policy, but as a Irish person I am getting abit miffed at the amount of times the IRA has been mentioned. People are upset hell even I am upset been glued to Sky news all morning, but again throwing wild speculations around offends and leads to miss-information and general panic ect.
I agree

Just heard my Dad is ok although he was traveling in central London at the time. If anyone else is waiting for news of loved ones I hope that you recieve the same good news shortly if you have not already.
Once again my condolances and sympathy goes out to all affected by this, yet another cowardly attack on innocents. I am truly shocked...

Originally by: true sight hmmm... received two text messages from one of my icelandic corp mates... 1) Are you ok? 2) Are the eve-servers ok? Priorities?
I don't think our precious Eve servers are in that part of London.
Edit: Though I imagine the network infrastructure may be getting a bit of a beating.
Edit 2: I imagine DT might be extended though.
The eve servers for london and the south east are housed in canary wharf so i'm told.

I cannot even start expressing the sadness and sorrow i feel at times like these. At times when Nightmares come to life, and evil is allowed to spread this far into our daily lives. At this time, all my thoughts is with those who have been both directlly and in-directlly effected by the Cowardish act taken by Al-Quaida.
I myself have witnessed two suicide bombings, and i know that it is not easy, no matter how you think of it. Just knowing that this sort of thing is even possible, makes me sad and sick, at the same time. However, it is times like these, that you need to stay strong, and not let those kind of things, no matter how horrifying they are, take control of your feelings and mind. Living in fear is not an option - I live in Israel, I know.
To all those who lost people dear to them - My heart is with you, and so are the hearts of every single sane and civilized pearson on this earth. My best wishes to all of you, dear brothers from overseas.
When I first read about the bombing, I was shocked. i did not belive that Evil and terror was allowed to make it to the peaceful island to which i so want to go for a visit.
Again, allow me to share my sorrow with you, on this sad day. I wish all of the best to the familys of the ones that were injured, adn the ones that were sadlly taken away from us with this horrible blast of illogical reality. All my thoughts are with you guys right now, and i hope that all who has been effected recover soon, and smile at the shining sun and the blue skies once more.
Your's, Nikolai. |

Whether or not this is the worst attack in England depends on how you do the maths. But it doesn't matter.
Do I believe the hitherto unheard-of group who claimed responsibility after nobody else had? No. Why should I? After all, someone claimed responsibility for 9/11 in the name of the DFLP but it turned out to be a hoax. If these nameless typists want me to believe it was them then they'll have to do a lot better than that.
I wonder what Bin Laden thinks of them claiming to be a part of his organisation? I hope it makes him miserable, because that has to be good in my book.

Well, technically, that was over britain, but I agree that Lockerbie was worse. But Lockerbie wasn't quite so intentional - they only had the one bomb didn't they? Not 4... and it's this co-ordination that makes it worse in some ways.
