Terrorists have hit London hard. Several explosions wracked multiple subway trains and at least one double decker bus at rush hour.
1000+ casualties reported. Dear God.
Londoners seem to be handling this exceedingly well, what I can see on the news shows people remaining quite calm.
No word on who did this. AlQuaeda is certainly most likely, but Anti-G8 nutters, the IRA, Hammas, or (really unlikely) French Nationalist spoilers are all possible.
Good news: I just heard from a friend over there, she's OK. :)
Sincerest condolances to the UK.
I'm off to school: back later.
UPDATE:
Both friends in the UK,JJ and Allan, are OK, although Allan had a close call.
Lots of informative links at Instapundit
Still no firm word on who did this. It has the earmarks of an AlQuaeda op. though.

- I'm a 37 year old UPS employee, college student, Coast Guard reservist,amateur diver and general geek. I hope to study in Japan in a few years and I'd like to move to the overseas territories, especially Guam. I do lean a bit to the right politically.....but you knew that if you looked at my blog. I want to live long enough to walk on the Moon or Mars before I go. It is important to note that the views on this blog are my own and not those of UPS or the United States Coast Guard Reserve.
