I find it laughable to think that Al Qaeda is too busy in Afghanistan and Iraq to attack elsewhere. Madrid? Now London? Al Qaeda is not fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq so that they can't hit elsewhere - that simply isn't true.

Unlike that stupid flypaper concept, this event has been very startling. Last year, I studied near Russel Sqaure, and passed through both the Russel Square Station and King's Cross Station daily. Probably hundreds of times. If this attack was carried out a year ago, I could have been in the blast. I don't want it to seem like all I can think about is what could have happened to me, but I really feel for those folks in the blast in part because I can picture exactly where they were. I hope that as many people as humanly possible were saved, and that the bastards who did this are caught ASAP.

P.S. In King's Cross Station there is a plaque dedicated to those who died in an escalator fire there in 1987. I passed it often. I weep to think that there may be another plaque next to that one soon.
