Nobody to catch

After British authorities detonate an explosive at a raided home, we now know that all four of the bombers killed themselves in London last Thursday.

Suicide attacks in London.

It can happen in America.

It could help us to know who these men were but it's not likely going to get us the men in charge of terrorism.

The one that doesn't count

OK, not putting down the British, just think it's useless knowing this...

Police sources are telling Sky News, the sister station of Fox News, that they have identified one of the bombers - the one who blew himself up on a double-decker bus in London last week. The name is not yet available, but the terrorist's identity apparently led investigators to the city of Leeds, where they raided a number of homes on Tuesday. One of the raids involved a controlled explosion, so police could get into the building. Sky News reports there have been a number of arrests in Leeds -- and that more raids are taking place in London.

One good thing does come of this: Where did this guy come from? Who did he work for and who did they work for? Some answers will come from one person's identity but it still won't stop the others who got away.

So maybe it's not completely useless, just pointless to tell me without a name.

Update on friend

Forgot to add last week that I did find out my medic friend on his second tour in Iraq is safe, for now! God Bless our soldiers! All that you do and sacrifice will never be forgotten!

If you have family or friends overseas, you can get a status on the Iraq Casualty list.

Get back in there!

The Drudge Report this morning is citing a British newspaper that will report that U.S. forces have been told to back off in the U.K. for fear of another attack. This has pissed off British MP's, according to the report because they are America's strongest ally.

According to what Matt Drudge has posted, it sounds like Americans will attract bombers in London. Lets look at what terrorists do, if you don't know: They terrorize innocent civilians, of all ages, of all races, of all nations.

This report follows President Bush's comments yesterday in Quantico, Virginia:

President Bush was promising that America 'will not retreat in the face of terrorists', and voicing his solidarity with Londoners. Shortly after thebombings he declared in his weekly radio address: 'In this dark hour, the people of Great Britain can know that the American people stand with them.'

Bush will probably have the final say in this particular mess, should this report actually be true. I'm assuming this is a likely situation as America is trying to exterminate the hornets nest so attacks like London, Madrid, and 9-11 as well as all suicide attacks in Iraq and Afghanistan never happen again and the "hornets" can't take over.
