    And when you find these people, you'll find the women and children will cut your throat, throw that grenade, press that button on the remote detonator or just plain old shoot you dead, just as quick as the men.

    Hence, I say, kill them all, men women and children.

    See the difference?

    I hope everyone down there in London is ok.

    And can we put politics on the backburner, at least for 24 hours. It's not the time for it guys.

    My prayers go out to those who were injured or had loved ones who were killed in the explosions.

    Nothing justifies killing children. Children do what their told, cant u tell the difference between a child being forced to fight for a cause he or she knows nothing about and an adult knowing exactly what he is going to do?

    This is not Vietnam.

    Well, I'm glad you feel that way.
    It makes up a perfect balance to counter act people like me.
    I don't care how old you are, or what gender, if you're trying to take me out, I'm going to return the favour.

    It's not vietnam?
    Do you truly believe the women and children of these madmen are not actively involved?

    Have you not been following the news?
    Sucide bombing is now an equal opportunity employer.

    Clan, I have the utmost respect for you, but this last statement is ludicrous. It is very unfortunate that these militant extremists have chosen the paths they have. But they are an infinitesimal minority of the populations of countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan, and Saudi Arabia. Bombing cities such as Baghdad, Kabul, and Riyadh indiscriminately is simply wrong. Even though our enemies in this struggle don't hold themselves to any standards, it is our responsibility as the leader of the free world to do so ourselves. The Just War Theory and the Geneva Conventions must be applied to each of our maneuvers. To do otherwise would be to sink to the terrorists' level.

    You honestly thing a 12 year old child, who would probably rather play football, but who is forced by his parents into terrorism should be killed without mercy or hesitation? No offense, but then what would be the difference between u and a terrorist? They kill indiscriminately too. Women, children, they dont care.

    And so terrorists can use your justification, our women are in the armed forced, our children grow up and lot of them join the army, an army which in their eyes invades their country and kills their civilians, like in Iraq. So whats wrong with what they do?

    In a way, your making a case for Terrorism.

    I absolutely hate when things like this happen to good people, I hope that none of you are injured, or your families. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. I'm a Yank, but I love England although I've never been there, I can't explain it. I feel horrible for you all.

    I also say to only leave this thread open only to express sympathy and wish all the best to those who are in London. If we turn this into a political discussion, there will be many disagreements and arguments and this is not the time nor the place for that.

    Well said; You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to yasik19 again.

    Though, politics aside, may those who actively particiated in carrying forth this barbaric act soon breath their last vile breath.

    Winston Smith,
    You keep saying that they found unexploded bombs all over England and that they shot someone on Canary Wharf yet NONE of that is being reported anywhere. Where are you hearing that or is it just hearsay?

    I believe it's all inaccurate and false. There is speculation that they found "MAYBE" two unexploded bombs but nothing to the extent that you are saying.

    I feel sympathy for the entire city of London and those 37 who gave up their lives.

    Know that America (except the left wing whackos) is standing solidly with Britain today, there has been much made of the special relationship between the two countries. And an attack on Britain is seen as an attack on America.

    Apparently, Union Jacks have been appearing on US flagpoles as a sign of respect.

    My niece (a gooner) was within earshot of the bus blast today. This kind of thing makes football seem very trivial.

    dont know if this has been posted i read it on the rugbyrugby messageboards. it was a poem read on BBC Radio

    London Pride

    You come to place your bags of hate
    On bus and train, you made us late
    Yet we'll be back again tomorrow
    We'll carry on despite our sorrow

    Your bags of hate caused some to die
    Yet we stride out strong with heads held high
    You'll never win, we will not bow
    You can't defeat us, you don't know how

    This London which we love with pride
    Is a town where scum like you can't hide
    Don't worry we will hunt you down
    Then Lock you up in name of Crown

    We're London and we're many races
    Just look you'll see our stoic faces
    We all condemn your heinous act
    You will not win and that's a fact

    We'll mourn our dead and shed a tear
    But we will not bow to acts of fear
    You're out there somewhere all alone
    There's nowhere now you can call home

    Olympics ours we've won the race
    Your timing then a real disgrace
    Our strength you'll find remains unbowed
    We're London and we're very proud.

    Plenty of emotion here today. It's expected. I placed a similar message in a couple other locations;
    I have no particular EPL club for which I regularly cheer for, but I wanted to say to all of our friends from across the pond that you're alright.

    I feel fortunate that there are places like Big Soccer which make interaction like this possible.

    FYI,

    MY girlfriend was working in Canary Wharf yesterday, they most certainly did not shoot anyone there.

    We had a bombscare in Coventry, there was a controlled explosion to destroy the suspect package, but it turned out to be a false alarm, no explosives were found.

    I think there's been a fair amount of misinformation over the last 24 hours. But then the security services aren't going to release any information unless they absolutely have to, for fear of causing widespread panic.

    We probably won't really know what actually happened for a good few weeks.

    fighting terrorist is hard if not impossible, only God who can punish them in Hell. But there're things that can minimize it, good and fair Government's policy towards other countries and Fair economic policy that won't make others jealous and last one, Hunt them !
