Terrorists Attack London

Terrorists attacked London this morning, with four bombs going off in the transportation network, killing at least 33 people, and injuring up to a thousand. As always with breaking news like this, there are a lot of speculation and error being passed off as news. My deepest sympathy to all those affected.

The Mirror has reactions from many world leaders, but I'm going with the mayor of London, Red Ken Livingston:

"I want to say one thing: This was not a terrorist attack against the mighty or the powerful, it is not aimed at presidents or prime ministers, it was aimed at ordinary working-class Londoners, that isn't an ideology, it isn't even a perverted faith, it's mass murder. We know what the objective is. They seek to divide London. Black and white, Muslim and Christian, Hindus and Jews, young and old. It was an indiscriminate attempt to slaughter, irrespective of any considerations for age, class, religion whatever.”
