London Bombings

I'm currently reading all the news posts about the bombings in the London Underground this morning. My heart goes out to the families of all those who were killed and those who are spending this morning waiting to hear word of their loved ones.

What I'm really wondering though, is what the terrorists think that they can accomplish by doing this? Maybe it's my American perspective, but do terrorists really think that they can force people to respect their views or knuckle under to their demands by blowing them up? In the US, if you try to punch someone in the face, you'd better be ready for the return shot. And WWII proved that the Brits are better than anyone at taking you best shot and then turning around and slapping you silly.

So Britain, whatever help you need, you've got it. And you sick freaks who think that blowing up innocent civilians on their way to work is a valid political statement, watch your back!
