London: The Day of Terror and The Day After

[Rambuchan]

You're right about the location: Liverpool street is the area they wanted to target. Yet most people left the tube via Aldgate, which is right at the border to Whitechapel.

Still, Edgware Road is a completely Arabic part of town.

With Edgware Road you are completely right. That's the best place to score mint tea and baklava.

What I was saying is not that the media say "We're so strong!" (they do), but rather that when going through the city, one really feels that Londoners are just "getting on".

Oh no I wasnt referring to anything you said, just commenting on the ridiculous media pandering. For the next two weeks, the news media could just put somebody on TV cooing in babytalk: "Oooo your so good! Your good good good! But terrorists are baaad. Bad bad terrorists! Coochie coochie coo!" and nobody would notice

I have this sickening feeling that the terrorists somehow held back, as if London should be spared...

As if we would react favourably to them 'going easy on us'....

If so - This underlines their insanity...

Hitler tried the self-same nonsense, result we got our army back from France and went on to victory.

A blessing today was no more attacks, that would have really shaken confidence.
