Title: London Bombings
Post by: Ezekel on July 07, 2005, 06:17:50 PM
yeh i know this isn't op2 related, but its still news.

4 bombs went off today between 9 am to 9 30 am GMT in london. i'll spare the details as i'm sure you've all heard them several time son the news today.
basically wanted to let anyone who was worried know that i'm ok
(i guess not many ppl were worried, cos its not something you really think about *shrug*)

while i'm here, i'll just say i've not been quiet on the forum cos i'm not interested anymore, its simple cause my internet connection is on teh fritz right now (thank you british telecom) and so i have very limited time to access the internet.
emails come 1st, and usually thats all i can get done before it goes down.

well ciao.

I'm sorry to hear all of that.

I did not know about the London bombings, as I live by San Francisco, and am an ignorant American. I hope everyone is ok, and that noone is hurt, or at least they'll get better...

I hope you will not forget us entirely, Ezekel. Be sure to come back once in a while. You are a valued member of our community. Good luck with everything!!!

mrr, its unlikely, and no need to swear.
these guys are so hard to find.

though on the bright side i guess it shows how good the anti terrorism departments in england are that we haven't had a terrorist attack since the 80s (from the IRA that is).
so i'm kinda fairly confident that any other attacks in the future will be stopped when they are still in teh planning phases. (i hope)

well i'm gonna end this post now cos its making me a lil depressed thinking about it. mew

Is it just me, or does it seem that each "major" terrorist attack is getting weaker and weaker?

Well, this raises some concerns for Canada, as they went nuts on the news about...
England got hit, and it was pretty bad.   Canada has been quite lax in its immegration laws, and as such, its been pretty easy to get in.   Especially if you come from a former United Kingdom country (eg, Australia, India)   And, as they where saying on the news, we haven't been searching for anyone with terrorist intent, and since Canada IS on the list, my bet is that we are next.   It is believed that there may be several sleeper cells within Canada as well, just who/where they are is unknown...   My bet is they will hit largely populated areas, such as Edmonton, Toronto, Calgary, Ottawa, ect.   I'm especially expecting Toronto or Ottawa to get hit, they are our biggest cities, and Ottawa is the capital of Canada.   I'm not expecting them to hit where I am, as we have NO public transportation, excludeing taxis, and the military base, while quite the inviting target, isn't really worth their time...
Since their goal is mass panic, our town is simply too small to cause that.   If they where lucky, they might injure maybe 20 people, kill 4 or 5...

Hmm. That's a bit morbid. And isn't Ottawa not that big of a city?

Post by: Tellaris on July 29, 2005, 02:35:39 AM
Not really, but we are talking Canada here...   Its not that big population wise either.
Yes it is morbid, and I can see it being thought of as a big disaster because no one did anything, unfortunately.

You can say anyone sounds like a terrorist, and many people would believe you...   -paranoia.   And its only gonna get worse.   And no, I'm not a terrorist, I'm not even muslim

Not all terrorists are muslim. And I bet some muslim people object to terrorists being considered muslim.

And isn't this getting a little off topic?

Umm yes Refering to the terrorists as towel heads or rag heads might be a bit out of line on the this forum.  There is more then one religon and race of people that wear turbines and such not all of them are terrorist and most terrorists do not wear them.  From what I hear they got the people responsible and they should be shot in the head.  I dont know if canada would be a target and I dont think they will try any thing with the Russians mostly because the Russian military/police are quite insane and vengen full.  Baikon that is very true.  I am sure people that look or might even be suspected of being a terrorist because of there ethinicty or just people being mean to there neighbors are being harrassed by the cops and idiots.   Well there is my 2 sents.

i live in canada too and i would say that terrorist wont attack because our security system leak big time... so why would they force raising the security since they can actually rest here and get money from the government and plan attacking usa witch would be f***in ez from canada..

what do you think?

frankly, we should go out and kill the masterminds, its not enough that we kill the terrists because they can recruit new ones faster than we can kill them

freankly yes, most moslems arn't terrists, but most terrists are moslem, and thats what makes it difucult, its like vietnam, the farmer you waved to in the morning, could be a vc that shoots you at night, that applies here as well

also, I found it almost laughable when sudi arabia said that it had nothing to do with terrisism, its state sponcered religion is more extreme than any in the world, it dosnt just call for blood of the infeles and jews, but for anyone not in their spcific religion, they are a hot bed of haterid

why do they hate us so much? is it because we have technology, while their fundamentilism has left most of the population still living in mud huts? is it because we worship a different invisible entity (one that is remarkably similer to theirs)

I dont know, but what I do know is that it will never stop, somthing has been driving their hatrid for over 2000 years, and its not going to stop soon, the only short term solution we have is clearing out the immidate threat wich is the people that have the capaability to orcastrate the attacks, yes they can be replaced as well, but its much harder than recruting some kid off the street that hates all civilived life, and giving him a bomb and a truck

these people are out to kill themselves, they have no reguard to their own life, or to the ones theyve killed, they beleave that if they die in jihad, they will have great rewards in the afterlife, that is a very dangerous form of thought

and damn, I forgot where I was going lol

racism is bs.

well its all well thought up and planned well in advance, theres loads of terror groups, so really it was just a matter of time and couldnt be stopped.  even if they tipped the police / mi5 off would anything have been done?


look at 9/11 the governemtn did get tipped off 9the pentagon) but they did nothing with it.

its an unfortuante side effect of "groups" not liking what our country or rather politicians are doing in there country ( i.e. we are f***ing things up for some people in their own countries, whilst we are trying to make things "better", so in return they f*** things up for us.)

a visious hate cycle occurs as innocents are hurt and the innocents "group" hits back and a visious circle occurs.

examples:

Israel, Palestine: they attack each other constantly, whether by army or matyrs (i.e. suicide bombers)

N. Ireland: Protastant/ Catholic they cant even remember what they are fighting for: (IRA for those of you who dont know)

terrorism happens, but it mainly caused by the big countries trying to make things better in other countries.  or big countries trying to screw other "smaller" countris but  the plan backfires.

thats how i see it, anyway.

well they hate everything about the west.
Title: London Bombings
Post by: Betaray on August 08, 2005, 08:30:53 PM
exactly, all they've known for the past 2000 years is hate

before that they used to be the greatest civalation in the world, but their rundamentilist beleavefs squashed that, so now they hate us because of our way of life, when the reasion they live in mud huts is of their own doing, and their using the same religion that justified the stagnation of their culture as the justafacation of their killing of innocant people

we will never be able to change their minds, the only way to stop this is eather to go to a place where they couldnt launch attacks (the closest would be Mars!!) or we kill them

the latter would be almost impossible, and to the public, always undeserible, and it is almost impossible to get to a place where they couldnt attack us

so, what do we do?

Yes but when your country have nothing but dictator after dictator things tend to change.  And also you say to kill the master minds of the terrorist because the troops of them are easyer to replace.  The master minds are easy to replace as well.  There is always some one next in line who will have a different idea in how to f*** the other side.  To kill them would be very hard because its a religon to them.  Very hard to kill a religon.  But if we are at war with them then they have every right to fight back.  Yes yes they kill people but we kill there people as well.  If they hate the west and how things are done in our government then fine most people will agree with them because the US government is a POS untill the right person gets in there and makes changes and not promises but that wont happen.  I have to agree with mezza that the Big countries that think they need to be helping in a country that they dont need to be helping.  Just because it is politically correct to do so.  And yet we have to many problems in the US.  Its a circle that wont stop untill some one backs down and just lets that little part of the world kill itself off.
