They're saying it could be suicide bombers.

could be... i think it'll be something similar to what they did with the madrid bombings.

apparently some website has been unearthed claiming responsibility for this - some al qaeda cell in europe.

WillowTheWhisp · 07-07-2005, 11:46

I just cannot understand how anyone can do something like this. What goes on in their heads?

Thank God you're all safe & well. The b*****d's who did this planned it well. They knew there would be many people around & have done it to maximise the effect. It's bad enough and my heart goes out to the families of the dead But how much worse would it have been had it been yesterday with all those people waiting for the Olympic result.

Report: Israel Was Warned Ahead of First Blast
13:30 Jul 07, '05 / 30 Sivan 5765

(IsraelNN.com) Army Radio quoting unconfirmed reliable sources reported a short time ago that Scotland Yard had intelligence warnings of the attacks a short time before they occurred.

The Israeli Embassy in London was notified in advance, resulting in Finance Minister Binyamin Netanyahu remaining in his hotel room rather than make his way to the hotel adjacent to the site of the first explosion, a Liverpool Street train station, where he was to address and economic summit.

At present, train and bus service in London have been suspended following the series of attacks. No terrorist organization has claimed responsibility at this time.

Israeli officials stress the advanced Scotland Yard warning does not in any way indicate Israel was the target in the series of apparent terror attacks.

this is absoulutly terrible but its good to see that the emergancies services and police etc are as prepared as they possibly could be and that the plans that they have had in place seem to be working regarding shuting down phone network, and using buses as temporary places to treat the injured.

How could somebody do this its discraceful and then to own up to it as it seem this group have http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0...188265,00.html

mail is reporting it as well

British police told the Israeli Embassy in London minutes before Thursday's explosions they had received warnings of possible terror attacks in the city, a senior Israeli official said.
Israel was holding an economic conference near the scene of one of the explosions. Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was supposed to attend, but the attacks occurred before he arrived.

Just before the blasts, Scotland Yard called the security officer at the Israeli Embassy and said warnings of possible attacks had been received, the official said. He did not say whether British police made any link to the economic conference.

Margaret Pilkington · 07-07-2005, 12:27

Glad to hear that the Accyweb members are safe and accounted for.
I hope they catch the barbarous cowardly attackers who did this. In the meantime my thoughts are with those whose friends and family have been hurt in this dastardly bombing.
