New Attacks in London


Right now,the situation is still very confused.

At lunch hour in London today, four "minor bombings" occurred in an eerie mimicry of the 7/7 terror attacks. Three incidents occurred in various Tube stations, and a fourth occurred on a double-decker bus.

So far, only one injury has been reported, and the bombers apparently wanted to survive this attack. In one attack, the bomber threw a knapsack into a crowded train car just before the doors closed, then turned and ran up the stairs.

What is not yet clear: was this a prank, a copycat incident, or a genuine Al Qaeda operation that went bad?

Check the BBC News website for the latest.

P.S.: The 7/7 investigation may be moving to American shores. The British are seeking a man tied to an attempt to establish a terrorist training camp in Oregon. (See Orbusmax for more.)

What would call this strange new breed? The Union Stripes? Jack Glory? Stars and Jack? Half-Jack Glory? Half-Jack and some stripes? Or maybe all Jacked up?
