| These are purely just extremists using religion as a decoy. I worry about the Muslims in the UK, I fear there could be a racial war or something when its not their fault. |

| This isnt what religion does (and Im higly secular), it is ,however, what extremists turn religion too, what they understand from it with their distorted way of thinking and living |

| I just read this, how sad is this.
MISSING Neetu Jain called relatives to say she had safely evacuated from the Tube — but they fear she then caught the No30 bus.
She told boyfriend Gous Ali, 32, and sister Reetu, 40, she had got out of Euston station all right and told them she was taking a bus.
Neetu has not been seen or heard from since. Gous said: “We’re all beside ourselves with worry not knowing what has happened to Neetu.” |

If the people actually took the religion for what it truly taught, then there would be no problem. Don't attack the religion, attack the people. They're the ones who you need to analyze. |

| Well...it kinda PARTIALLY religion. Some of these suicide bombers are raised to believe that it is their religion to die for God and whatnot. Or that the people they are killing, to them, they believe they are saving them. |

| Thousands of people have been evacuated from Birmingham city centre after police issued a terror warning.
Bomb squad officers reportedly carried out a series of controlled explosions in the Broad Street entertainment district.
West Midlands Police said no vehicles are being allowed past the inner ring road.
Around 200 bars, restaurants and clubs were being emptied and searched
Assistant chief constable Stuart Hyde said police had received an intelligence warning of a "substantial threat".
"I don't believe that the incident that we are dealing with this evening is connected with the events of July 7 in London. I want to make that pretty clear," he said.
"We have evacuated an area of Birmingham city centre and we are asking people who are there at the moment to go home, to have the evening off, this will help us considerably."
Mr Hyde said a controlled explosion was carried out on a bus in Corporation Street following a call from a member of the public.
However, it was thought the item destroyed had not posed a threat.
Allan Sartori, a Birmingham club owner, said police appeared to have the situation under control in the city centre.
He said evacuating the city centre would have cost "a lot of people a lot of money". |

| That was just a hoax and nothing to do with the London attacks, I am glad cos my brother lives in Wolverhampton and was in Birmingham last night, Phew.
Also as expected.. Terrorists born or based in the UK were "almost certainly" behind the London bombs, a former Met police chief says
Suggesting foreign attackers were to blame was "wishful thinking", ex Police Commissioner Lord Stevens told the News of the World.

|  Three men have been arrested at Heathrow Airport under the Prevention of Terrorism Act.
But police say it would be inappropriate to draw any links with the bomb attacks in London. |
