American Entropy: London - bushCo. happy?

London - bushCo. happy?

My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of London, Europe and all over the world. Things like this shouldn't happen. I offer one suggestion; it's your policies world leaders. They are bad policies and should be changed.

We are currently fighting a war against enemies that we fuel by fighting wars and continuing policies (laid out here). This war will continue until we get a little reality in Washington.

The big winner in this is bushCo. I'd expect a slight increase in his polling numbers and Rove will be getting considerably less attention for the coming days.

GerryinLondon put together a brief diary of the events at dKos.

There are an awful lot of people moving about on foot, much more than normal. There are groups of tourists hanging around bus stops in packs, looking pretty lost. It must be pretty bewildering to be in a strange city and country when something like this happens.
Landlines are mostly OK, mobile service is patchy but goes sometimes.
People are pretty calm, even the tourists.
The casualty figure is going to be very, very large, it hasn't been released only because they are still doing triage.
There are still lots of sirens about and lots of rumours, but on days like this rumours take hold easily.
It seems there were at least three bus bombs. The bastards put bombs on the buses deliberately because they knew people would be forced off the tube and the buses would be like sardine tins. Scum.
I live in an area with a large Arab population. Things are going to be extremely tense.

A sad day for humanity.
