We're being asked to remember the London bombings and none previous because it happened after 9/11 . Of course we have to follow our masters,the USA don't we. There'll be a statue of some "firefighters" from the good old "WFD" (Westminister (sic) Fire Department) erecting a Cross of St George flag within a couple of years at the "center" of "Ground Zero." A few not very well known architect/designers will be asked to tender vastly overpriced and abstract plans for a "more" permanent remembrance site.The most obscene will be chosen and when built much kudos will be afforded to the head of our Government at the time. Ladies and Gentlemen i give you our Prime Minister............ George Bush Jr .Er I mean Tony Blair.

But where were the 2-minute silences for Warrington, and Birmingham, to name but two?
Oh, sorry, forgot..........they aren't in LONDON are they?

The Brits only got involved because the Germans went through Belgium to get to France. Britain gave Belgium a guarantee in 1839 that if anybody attacked her, Britain would attack the attacker.

Barry Beelzebub points out that if we have 2 minutes silence for 50 people killed in the london bombings then we'll need 17 hours silence in november for those killed in WW1. Good point (not sure of the maths though).
