Um. (I'm having a horrible feeling of déja-vu, here ...)

Here's hoping the casualties list is very, very short :(

Re: ...


Twenty confirmed casualties so far, with at least 90 badly injured.

*clings*

Meep.

It's 3:20 in the morning on the West Coast. I'm still not quite sure why I'm up.

Maybe I should move to Canada. Nobody wants to attack them. They don't antagonize anybody. *whimper*

I dunno, with thwe whole gay marriage thing, some nitwits are bound to try and protest violently the presence of a godless heathen queer-friendly country so close to the USA.

(Sorry, is my cynicism showing? :/)

I don't know, I think they're still up in arms over the whole abortion clinic thing. :P

(Cynic away! God knows I do.)

From: [identity profile] sonatine.livejournal.com


My bad--the whole bombing of abortion clinics in the 90's, shooting of doctors who performed abortions, that stuff. I guess it's died down in recent years, since it seems to have backfired. Gee, wonder why. It just seems to me that most fundies are more willing to exert violence in that regard, rather than to stop or protest gay marriage.

Six stations, now. Eep.

Oh, right, I do remember that!

Six stations, and they're now refusing to confirm fatalities, but earlier someone was claiming 20 casualties and over 90 wounded at one site alone.

The worst is not knowing if the actual explosions are over now, or if more will follow still.

I heard the police found more bombs, and would be blowing them up in a controlled fashion. You may also wish to check Metafilter (http://www.metafilter.com/) as well as Livejournal. They have more info there too.

Thanks for the link! (Oh, and disregard the 20 casualties I mentioned earlier, I should know to ask for sources, first.)

Supposedly, he's stated it is a terrorist attack, and that he's going to London right away, and letting the G8 go on without him.

Apparently he also got in a plug for Kyoto Protocol and debt relief. Buh?

*hugs* I'm about to drop, I'm so tired. Prayers and anxious worry, and such.

nah, man. my entire country would've been a post-nuclear wasteland by now if people went around bombing for the sake of gay marriage/abortion/euthanasia/left-wing sympathies.

But the Netherlands, like Belgium, are far away in Europe, not right next door to the States!

From: [identity profile] perhael.livejournal.com


true that. i realize that we are probably just not important enough. let's face it, we don't even deserve to be taken seriously. wnot only did we elect harry potter as our prime minister, thousands of us also voted for a *dead guy*. what. the. fuck.

and to think i used to be proud of my country. oh, the days of prime minister kok and a cabinet that was actually left wing. where have they gone?

Don't look at me, man, 30% of my country votes extreme-right. Sigh. I hate people sometimes.

It's actually (0+7)=7/(0+7)=7/(2+0+0+5)=7
At least somebody told me that yesterday.
Never thought terrorists could actually count.

From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com


You're assuming they actually thought of that. Remember, after 9/11, people came up with all sorts of connections and things that were more than probably just coincidences.
