Sigh. So what about the MSNBC report?

And what about this BBC Radio 5 clip? Listen the whole clip or go to 1:34.

I mean, MSNBC and BBC are mainstream media, not?

To put it really simple:

The official investigation is far from being over. Media can only give speculations. Any loonatic can call up BBC and claim responsibility. Media just reports on whatever news they have. It's the work of the law inforcing organizations (in this case mostly Scotland Yard) who will try to figure out who did it. People just don't want to wait that long and therefore media want to give them some answers - even if they are faulty.

Thus far Al-Quida is the most likely susspect (as an organization). And the sentence

"This is not something al-Qaida would do," he said.<<

somehow doesn't convince me.

You only get some information from the media - who are fighting to report something first (to be ahead of competition). Once the investigation is over and hopefully the guilty people brought to justice - you will get some answers. Untill then every piece of information is speculation.

For all I know it might have been the ghost of Charles de Gaul, who's angree at London for getting the Olympic games instead of Paris. So please stop with speculations. It's not that importaint at the moment what name you give to the organization. It clearly was a terrorist attack (no mater who pulled it off). It certainly was tragic - and such attacks must stops (but I'm afraid they won't).

Did you listen to this BBC radio clip?

On a BBC Radio 5 interview that aired on the evening of the 7th, the host interviewed Peter Power, Managing Director of Visor Consultants, which bills itself as a 'crisis management' advice company, better known to you and I as a PR firm.

Peter Power was a former Scotland Yard official, working at one time with the Anti Terrorist Branch.

Please, try to listen to it first.

Here's a shorter version of that radio clip.

and new news this morning: The bombers were most likely British Born Al Queda-trained agents. Foreign agents are wishful thinking.

Sorry for my late post on this. I'm really sorry about the deaths and injuries. Really, I didn1t wanted this to happen

But the thing is they had it coming for a long time. They asked for it.
Like Blair, he is an assole. He was SO sure the terrorists will attak them, he sweared and mucked every terrorist in the world "You don't dare to come to Britain". Well they did. Poor civilans.

Seriously, Al-Qieda is most likely made up. This might sound like a total conspiracy, but has anyone else been blamed for any terrorist activities in the last couple of years?

Until somebody owns up it's always Al-Qieda.

To be honest, it might just as well be a french terrorist group called "L'anglais sans Olympiques" or something, or the IRA, or some kind of pollution-loving terrorist group called "G8 H8RS" or something, to be honest when the news has started taking 'facts' on the internet as something is true then something has gone very, very wrong.

That's like saying 'If you read it on the internet it must be true'... that's not true. You can't say that of any media at all.

Hey, that's good advice to the public.

If nobody claims it or it's unsure like now, you can bet it's Al Qaida!

Al Quaida is pretty stupid aren't they. Britain was going to pull out its troops of Iraq but with the latest bloodshed I'm certain Blair will find ample reason to keep them in Iraq. And the British people will rally behind him? Don't know. They've been used to bombings from the early 70s on with the IRA terror campaigns.

[PrejudiceSucks]

Jesus Christ you're an idiot.

[Microprose Veteran]

You are the idiot if you can't recognize sarcasm.

[efthimios]
