      • UR is right about HK. Totalitarian police states are almost impossible targets for terrorists.

        • Not to mention that HK isn't likely to be on AQ's **** list.

            nonsense - its an easy soft target - huge influx of tourists and business people gives cover and its port has low customs barriers and a high volume of trade so getting equipment in would not be hard.

              It appears that you are ignoring Ming's warning. You really should put aside your political axe grinding for a moment.

              • Apparantly, London's emergency plan for terrorism was put in place just four minutes after the explosion at Aldrige.

                That is impressive

                  • I slept most of today - I skipped a day of sleep to meet my wife and little girl coming back from Cleveland (I won't tell my cardiologist if you don't). It's weird how much can change in 24 hours.

                    My heart goes out to all of those who have lost parents, spouses, children, and friends in London. God bless all of you, and I will keep you in my prayers.

                    Plus 4 minute response time for the emergency plan. Ruddy impressive. As usual, the Brits do it right.

                    • Just checking in this thread to see if all of our friends in the UK are ok. I'm pretty sure if the frigging Nazi war machine can't intimidate Londoner's, there is no waaaaaaay Al Qaeda would.

                      "Stiff upper lip."-the British are more hardy then AQ thinks. They should at least be aware of this quote. Says a lot more than at first glance.

                      Hang in there guys, I'm supporting you.

                      • Its just great there weren't more casualties - this could have easily been even more horrific, like Madrid.

                          That's nice, wishing death and mayhem on others. Beyond pale if you ask me.

                          I tried to deflect your atrocious comment the first time. But no, you have to be oh-I-am-so-funny.

                          • where did I wish death on anyone? In my opinion Hongkers would be an easy target. That's a fact.

                            Stop trying to distract attention from your Provost remark. That was really beyond the pale.

                            • I don't think you can claim "you didn't know what was going on" after the rolleyes smiley you posted, UR. That was the sickening post.

                              In other news, let's play guess the tabloid.
