Just listening to Blair...he sounds really shaky. Is he linking the terrorist attacks with G8 or have I misinterpreted him?
he said it was particularly barbaric to launch an attack on the day the g8 were going to meet to try and tackle poverty in africa / global warming. i don't think he meant it was necessarily linked.

Good God BBC world is interviewing the most annoying American woman about how her holiday plans are disrupted.
Damn American tourists! I remember reading a story somewhere that one of them was quoted outside Buckingham Palace for saying "Why did they build the Palace so close to the airport...." 😕
BBC radio news (don't ask me which station and all that - this is on our public broadcasting station here in the States) had an interview from some guy who works for BBC's Somali bureau. He was going to get on the bus, but the driver "didn't know where he was going" so he decided not to get on it....it blew up a few hundred meters from him. I bet he's rethinking some of his basic assumptions about life and death right now....
