Just so you know the target of the bombers. This was not a military target.

I honestly believe this sort of this will come to Australia eventually

Both Australia and the United States have been relatively free from terrorism. For people in London however it was (and possibly still is) a fact of life. I missed being the target of three IRA attacks while working in London many years ago (bombs on the London Underground).

There was also the Bader-Meinhof gang, who decided to take their own lives. The IRA have done terrible things in Northern Ireland and indeed within the United Kingdom.

It's interesting to note that the entries for Bader-Meinhof are missing and that the Irish Republican Army are not listed on the page above.

Colonialist powers were also terrorist organisations in my humble opinion.

One of the dead was a Kiwi, and ten other NZ'ers were injured. Their crime -- being Fonterra employees on a training course in Jakarta.

This all sucks, Den. But, sorry to say, I think you're right about where it's going.

Sometimes I just don't understand people.
