Explosions in London - terrorism?

Me and my brother were about to go to london for today. Fortunately his passport was out of date so we couldn't go. I pretty happy we didn't went after all.

Jesus. Thank God. I didn't read the entire post when I initially posted. You are the first person I thought of when I heard this.

BBC:
The BBC's Frank Gardner said Arab sources said the blasts were probably the work of al-Qaeda but police have not confirmed a terrorist link.

its got to be them

Im so glad you are ok Mike.

My friend was on the bus behind one that was exploded, his friends were on the bus that was bombed... he only got on the bus behind because he was running late.

He is currently walking across London sent to bus depo to get him out of the area, all mobiles have been shut down.... havent heard from him for 1 1/2 hrs now.... Please can another tell me what time the last bomb went off and where it went off, I cant seem to find out.

Just keep sitting at the tv crying and praying......

Dawn

Dawn....my thoughts are with all of you right now....
S.

Dutch television confirmed it also, its because Blair supported Bush in the war against terror. They are out for revenge.

This is the timeline so far. Hope your friend & his friends on the bus in front are ok!
