That sucks.

There's a building site next to my office and the works often cause our desks to tremble and windows to rattle. Today, it is making me nervous :(

A real taste of what life is like in so many troubled parts of the world.

I think there was video footage of Cheney double parking one of the cars himself

(Oh and give Brown a reason to cut his teeth in the "right" direction)

it is quite scary to think there could be more car bombs around london. luckily i prob wont need to go into central london for a while but i have family and friends that do. the good thing is you cannot walk anywhere in central without being filmed by cctv so the fuckers should be put down quite quickly. god they better catch the bastards and string them up.

Safe from what?

You now have people who were born in London who want to attack London. This is why we must require immigrants to assimilate. You now have these Muslim communities in London that are radical Muslims first and I doubt even consider themselves to be Brits. It's like they have their own country in the middle of London. Very scary.

What do we do with sections of town where even police do not feel comfortable going?

i think most of the 7/7 bombers were not even from london, they were northerners. only one or two lived here. who knows about these bastards that tried to ignite these nail bombs. i would not be surprised if they were were not from london either.

You are from London. What is your take on the Muslim sections in town? Do they worry you at all?

...yup. bush was in office when the planning for 9-11 began, after all the other terror attacks bin laden had gotten away with.

oh, wait, nope that was clinton.

So, I think your post should be revise to "It's Clinton's Fault".

on the whole most of them seem quite fine. most understand this is britain and they live by british law. most dont expect to get any sorta sharia law or anything crazy like that, they just wanna worship and practice their religion. which is fair enough because we all wanna be able to do the same.

it is the fringe. the very edge of these communities that are the problem. they are telling dissafected youth things to manipulate them into going into this crazy fundermentalism.

i hope so. from the news in the US from various reports, there's a bit of a problem with the Muslim community isolating themselves from the rest of those in London.

the american press are overexagerating it, due to their own agenda. there are always isolated parts of communities, especially immigrant communities but its not a massive problem in london. the real problem is in the midlands in places like burnley. they have real ghettos there.
