Problem is, 9/11 affected everyone, there were brits in that building too and it bought things to a standstill globally, and also spawned the war on terrorism(i almost said crashing to the ground, but then realised that wasnt appropriate).

london, madrid and turkey, while not quite as huge as 9/11 is still really bad, capital cities were attacked, the madrid bombing scared the spanish out of the war, and possibly the turks too. but what is most significant about the london bombing is that where some of the explosions happened were big muslim communities, showing that these people aren't even muslim as everyone seems to think, if anything theyre a break off of the muslim religion, like protestants were back when Henry the VIII set up the church of england.

I think this is the part where we should all agree that tragedy is tragedy, and recognize that it is happening all around us--England and the USA are not the only two countries in the world. More horrendous events are occuring the world wide that we are oblivious to. Just be thankful that you live where you do, where the internet is a luxury you take for granted.


Yup, couldn't have said it better myself, even in french! Nuts

reaper, im more than happy to carry on a debate with you else where away from here about the IRA .. be interesting to hear what you know and have to say about it.. its a huge subject of mine and i know a fair deal about it Very Happy and i said debate not an argument .. Very Happy


And you are leaving ME out of this? Come on... 3 of my most well written papers through highschool have been on the IRA and the Irish acts of resistance (in some cases yes, terrorism.) Smile I would absolutely love to be involved as there is a long and deep argument over what the IRA does and what it stands for.

In the mean while, listen to Morrissey's Irish Blood English Heart. I think it is on the CD We Are The Quarry. So yeah. Sorry. Didn't mean to bring it up again. Mad Just putting it out there that I'd love to be involved in any discussions as it is an argument very close to me. Smile

Anybody know about the arrests at the airport? From what Ive heard, they are unwilling to publicly announce any connection to the terrorist attacks, but they were arrested under Britains anti-terrorist laws?

I'll try to find it. It was on the CNN ticker yesterday while I was watching Anderson Cooper get whipped around by Dennis.

Lol. Dennis just passed through Jonesboro (where I live). We only got the edge of it; the damage was so minimal I don't think it was even reported.
