Attacks in London
The biggest story today, of course, is out of London and the terrorist bombings that took place there. Instapundit is gathering links. The Corner at National Review is also doing a good job collecting information from around the web.
UPDATE - I would say more about the political implications of this attack, but I'm with Ace - they're still counting the dead and mourning right now. There will be plenty of time for discussion later.
UPDATE II - That doesn't mean I can't be nauseated by the reaction of MP George Galloway. In part, he says:
The loss of innocent lives, whether in this country or Iraq, is precisely the result of a world that has become a less safe and peaceful place in recent years.I honestly didn't expect the Chamberlain contingent to come out so quickly with their 'cut and run' message.We have worked without rest to remove the causes of such violence from our world. We argued, as did the Security Services in this country, that the attacks on Afghanistan and Iraq would increase the threat of terrorist attack in Britain. Tragically Londoners have now paid the price of the government ignoring such warnings.
We urge the government to remove people in this country from harms way, as the Spanish government acted to remove its people from harm, by ending the occupation of Iraq and by turning its full attention to the development of a real solution to the wider conflicts in the Middle East.
