London Calling

British and London authorities should be ashamed of themselves for the events that occurred the 7/7 05 in London. While 1500 London police are over in Scotland, part of a 15,000-strong policing force, watching people chant and march against the G8, they apparently leave the capital unprotected. Anyway Blair first said " it was reasonably clear the attacks had been timed to coincide with the G8 summit in Gleneagles," and then: "the British people will not be intimidated after blasts hit London's transport network". It seems that the exasperation of control on people is unnecessary, since the big efforts against the alleged terrorist are completely useless. Control against potential terroristic attack is hardening since September 11 all over Europe and the United States. Even on 7/7 in many countries, like Italy, the premier declared being in higher risks than before, while the US raised the alert level for the nation's mass transit systems to orange. This means that the rise of the politics of fear may be grow, instead of lowering the politic of war.

Poor use of Indymedia

As one of the UK server admins, I find the quality of posts on Indymedia UK regarding the London bombing to be rather poor. This site should be about news, and not politically motivated conjecture. Read more >>
