![]() Well it probably was a nailbomb but only the detonator detonated.
My guess is another splintercell tried to copy the attack but built the bombs so quickly (two weeks perhaps?) that they didn't detonate properly.

![]() Seems they were intended to kill, but failed. They may have been simultaneous and are being linked to the previous bombs.
gotta love the Beeb.

![]() The Metropolitan Police has just affurmed what I had suspected: they were bombs but only the detonator detonated, possibly because the bombs were made too quickly in order to copy the previous bombing.

![]() I hope they capture the guys behind them and interrogate them fully. Then finish them off.
I doubt they had anything directly to do with al-qaeda, apart perhaps from being inspired by them. |

![]() I was in America at the time so it was made into a huge deal.
Glad to see that no one was even badly hurt this time. How do you guys/gals who are in the UK feel? (as in will this change the way you travel to work or school etc.) |

![]() To be honest, there have been a fair few attacks on London and this is one of the crappest. I don't really care about it, but on the other hand, I bet those bombers wished that they have blown themselves up.
They'll probably be in Guantanimo Bay for a lengthy spell, enduring some kind of american torture *shudders*. |

![]() Now more shootings in london. Let's hope this wasn't american style friendly fire. But if it was a terrorist, it proves the system does kinda work.

![]() It doesn't actually say what he was running from, I'd be running too if there were 3 people in plain clothes with a handgun chasing after me.
It doesn't even say that they found a bomb on him, to me this sounds like a 'victory' for the UK police force that will be hammered into us again and again. |
