    London was hit today with 4 bombs. 3 in the subway and 1 on a bus ... very similar to the bombings exactly 2 weeks ago.

    Doesn't appear to have any casualties as they believe some of the bombs didn't explode.

    I think it was a copy cat type of situation by someone unstable but we shall see.

    It doesn't fit the Al Queda profile as these attacks are happening in the afternoon. Probably some nut stirring up trouble.

    Got this from Foxnews.com...

    One Sky News reporter on the ground said officials said the explosive device on the bus appears to be the same type used in the July 7 bombings in London. The material is highly explosive, which is why such a large area around the bus has been cordoned off.

    There's usually lots of conflicting and wrong information shortly after something like this, but if true, this may be another terrorist attack. Fortunately, it doesn't seem as though the bombs exploded when the detonators went off.

    Apparently one of the bombers chucked a bag onto a train and then ran out. They are searching for him in the hospitals around the area.

    That's why I too don't think this is an Al-Q type of deal...Maybe a copy cat.
