"In the new statement, the group (The Secret Organization of al-Qaida in Europe) said "the heroic mujahedeen carried out a blessed attack in London, and now Britain is burning with fear and terror, from north to south, east to west."
"We warned the British government and the British people repeatedly. We have carried out our promise and carried out a military attack in Britain after great efforts by the heroic mujahedeen over a long period to ensure its success."
"We continue to warn the governments of Denmark and Italy and all crusader governments that they will receive the same punishment if they do not withdraw their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan," the statement went on."
Tony Blair has headed back to London from the G-8 conference and will probably catch hell from some of his fellow Brits in Parliment, but I hope he hangs in there with us.
Fox News has spent the entire day showing photos of the city and is now reporting 37 dead and at least 700 injured. I expect the death toll to rise sharply in the next 24 hours.
I heard Rush Linbaugh say that yesterday the little ex California hippy chick turned House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi made the claim that terrorisim is a direct result of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan . She wants a policy change...
Today she has this to say about the bombings:
“I extend my condolences to the victims and their families of the horrific and senseless terrorist attacks in London. The thoughts and prayers of all Americans are with the people of Great Britain.
“The actions of cowards against innocent people will not prevail; our resolve to fight terrorism around the world will not be deterred. We join President Bush, Prime Minister Blair, and all the leaders of the G-8 Summit in fighting terrorism."
