33 confirmed dead in London blast. 3 buses have exploded. A terrorist group has taken responsibility for it.
Hopefully it is over.

In some respects, science has far surpassed religion in delivering awe. How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, "This is better than we thought! The universe is much bigger than out prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant. God must be even greater than we dreamed"? Instead they say, "No, no, no!

Actually, it's 3 underground trains, and a bus. And 33 dead is an incomplete number since it doesn't include those who died on the bus.
It's still uncertain who was responsible, though.
Edit. I'm in Florida, but my family is in London. I haven't been able to contact them yet, so I'm following the news. London is still my home, in many ways.
CAIRO, Egypt - A group calling itself “The Secret Organization of al-Qaida in Europe” posted a claim of responsibility for Thursday’s blasts in London, saying they were in retaliation for Britain’s involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I saw that, but there are probably going to be a lot of claims along those lines over the next few days. And I am always going to be a little suspicious of a group that calls itself “The Secret Organization of al-Qaida in Europe”

They have been mocked incredibly for calling themselves "the SECRET organisation of al-Qaida in Europe"

mmm, my sister was on one of the trains that was attacked, but she was fine, i think most people were affected by having to walk home, in my sisters case 2 and a half hours, but she was lucky... Alot of hotels raised there prices by up to 3 times as much, thats sickening, no? But at least alot of people did pull together to make things easyer for each other, god bless M and S for giving out free blankets and clothes to keep warm..
