Logically, I'd say if they wanted maximum amount of casualties, they would have gone with Hyde Park on Saturday with the Live8 concert, that would have also given them (whomever them is) a helluva stage for whatever message they wanted to deliver.

The news keeps reporting that this was the height of rush hour, but I'd imagine that if this occurred earlier or later, the count of those killed and injured would be a lot higher. The objective of terrorism, I think, is not to kill as many people as possible, but to be as disruptive as possible and to cause as much fear and terror as possible.
