Anti-Terrorism

So the bad news is that London increasingly seems to be under seige by Islamic terrorists. The good news is that their latest attempts haven't been successful. Three cheers to the brave London policemen who killed the latest attempted bomber! The story indicates that they shot him at extremely close range - it takes a lot of balls to get that close to a man with explosives strapped to him. Not to mention the good police-work of identifying him in the first place.

UPDATE: So it now appears that the police killed a completely innocent man. That means that pretty much everything I said above is incorrect - they actually did a poor job identifying the man and shot him without any real evidence that he was up to anything illegal.

Here's to hoping that the police take steps to prevent this sort of tragedy from occurring again.
