I was in work on my tea break when it happened. I remember being in the staff room and Janet said that london had been boomed, i thought she was joking until i heard the news. When she told me i nearly swallowed my cuppa and was in total shock.

I remember that my boss got a book of condolence and we all (and customers) signed it.

What kind of sickos would do such a thing.

I think I was on study leave after my GCSEs or I had finished them and wasn't at school, switched on BBC News 24 and it was all being reported there.

I don't think the fact that these people were Muslims had much to do with it to be honest. They have be nurtured and twisted into these cowards by pathetic hate filled, vile human beings and for once religion has no part in this evil. Religion is merely an excuse to appease there own minds into thinking it is right to kill innocent people.

Looking back and comparing the bombings to past atrocities is silly, it’s a different sort of evil, and you only have to look back at the world trade centre attacks to realize that it is a bigger, more unpredictable presence in today’s society.

Although I dont agree with the bombings. It was provoked.

Obviously I mean people that say it wasn't are just ignorant. Look at what the western world has done to the muslim world 'iraq' , Palestine is being Invaded by the Jewish state of Israel backed-up by America and Britain, just becuase there are louds of Jewish owned companies in the western world.

The only way for angry people to fight back is for something like that. Ignorance if you TOTALLY dont agree.

However no one deserves to die, even humans that dont even know about the political affairs.

someone should have told that to bush the week he used "shock and awe" on Baghdad, or whoever was in charge when "enola gay" took flight over Hiroshima.......America commited the worlds largest ever act of terror against civilians, regarding Hiroshima-
"In estimating the death toll from the attacks, there are several factors that make it difficult to arrive at reliable figures: inadequacies in the records given the confusion of the times, the many victims who died months or years after the bombing as a result of radiation exposure, and the pressure to either exaggerate or minimize the numbers, depending upon political agenda. That said, it is estimated that by December 1945, as many as 140,000 had died in Hiroshima by the bomb and its associated effects."
A terrorist is a group or individual who targets a civilian population to destroy or disrupt the said target, usually with a political purpose. America has done that many times.

i agree with you 100% but it still dont make it right.should we(uk) bomb ireland for the attrocities theyve caused us in the past? of course not.i no what america has done in the past/present and us the uk but nothing justifies murder in any shape.

anyway went a bit off topic then but i have had a few
