......from London
The explosions have caused minor damage but managed to disrupt the public transport system caused major traffic grid lock in and around London. One of the blasts occurred only 2-3 klm from where I am staying but we were out at the time of the explosions. Getting back to home was a bit of a mission due to traffic jams, it took 3 times as long as normal but we arrived safey..... Cheers ....bp....

..... very few people were injured thank heavens..... but it just goes to show that this sort of thing can happen anywhere........ the people that are involved in disrupting normal life in another country other than there own should just leave and go back home and not bring their way of disruptive and violent life into a peaceful society......
and thanks for the concern....... Cheers ....bp....

Big pix, Sorry, I'm not offending you nor a flame on anyone, just my honest opinion and POW. Aren't you speaking to yourself? or on behalf of all/ other innocent people, who're suffering with the illegal/ lied and no reason of invasion other countries as Iraq/ Afghanistan and other part of the world? The Yanks and our troop should go home by now from Iraq, leave their own citizen make their decisions for their own country. No light in the tunnel for them, the Vietnam's lesson is not learned by all The questions from a bombing victim yseterday in London to the "big liar" Johnny and his answers, made us re-think about our safest country in the world, perhaps no more. For the last two years of the war, the Iraqi people suffered more casualties under the Yanks controls are more than under their own regime of Saddam Hussein.

I was shocked to hear of this news, but somewhat relieved to hear that this appears to have been a failure.
Nevertheless, our staid trooper, Little Johnnie, is lapping this up. Hopefully he'll be extricated from Tony's backside sometime soon. Well, hopefully not so soon. g.

Agree with most of your post but can't let this bit, quoted above, goes... It's simply wrong to assert the Iraqis suffered more casualties under the Yanks than under Saddam. It would be easy to research the respective "body count" but the point is: as opponents of the war, we should keep the moral high ground; ie Saddam was a tyran who took his people into bloody wars (millions died against Iran) and ruthlessly crushed his own 'minority' people (Kurds and Shia) - the US is "just" in the middle of a pathetic, misguided neo-colonial occupation. Link.
The Iraqi now is suffering more than under their own regime, The Yanks was there two years, if they stay and reign there long as the time of Saddam, then the casualties is 100 times more than, and no life exist after. In the old time of Iraqi, they suffered but they were living with their own problems, they were happy with their own commander. They were happy with their life, that's their own matters. Same as domestic issues: we have rice everyday for dinner and you have bread, does it mean I have to eat bread to live or I have to follow your way? Now:innocent people got killed every days, no proper school for the children, people are fearing of bomb blast, bloodshed can be happened anywhere and anytime in Iraq. Libration Iraq: what do you think the Yanks and our troop will bring back to them? will they get back their own "peaceful life" before the war started, Will they live without fear of kidnapping, bomb blast, midnight raid by the gungho? will they live with the promised of their new real peacful future. And one day near: the Yanks will run away as Vietnam, the Yanks will betray all their followers, their allies as they did to us 30 years ago. Results: Millions caualties from both sides, hundred of thousand people suffering in concentartion camp, forced hard labour, brain washing in 10, 15 years after the war ended. History proved.
