July 2005 London bomb blasts: UPDATES AND NEWS ONLY - NO DISCUSSION

probably because the police now have access to the underground's cameras/records n are able to piece events more accurately...

The bus was much later though, right?

Yep, although they're still not quite sure why and there's a rumour going around that one of the people in hospital could have been the bus bomber. The MET "refused to confirm or deny" that at the press conference.
 
Koran 9:029 Set 38, Count 101 Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.

:rolleyes: Not the right thread, take it somewhere else please.
 
I know the BBC won't announce things until they have been properly confirmed, and this is the first time I've been around for a terrorist attack and it's reports, but is it normal that facts keep changing so much? Or am I being too suspicious?
 
no of course it's normal. things have happened... now everyone is trying to piece the info together. it takes time esp as it's hard to confirm what exactly happened when people arer scared, suspicious n some still hurt.

I think it's bound to happen as more and more information comes to light to be honest. The BBC as a public service broadcaster won't say anything until it's 100% confirmed, some other broadcasters may have what seem more up to date stories, but of course they may end up not being quite accurate or something.

From that link

:: Many victims suffered "extensive trauma".

Disembodied body parts are making identification of victims difficult.

Bloody awful.

one paramedic i spoke to said he had to walk over parts and limbs to get to those still alive in the a tunnel.
 
I dont think facts are changing - the reported times of the explosions would have been just that - reported times of explosions, no-one would have been around watching the clock and noting the time down! Further investigation will give a more accurate estimation as to the times the explosions occured :)

The awful folly of human kind, the barbarism and the hope rolled together. :(

I have utmost respect for those in the Emergency Services, it really is an amazing job that you all do.

Absolutely agreed.
In terms of emerging facts. Think about the tsunami reports this year. Facts kept emerging then, and now new facts on this terrible event will continue to emerge in the coming days. This awful slaughter. These awful days.

No, what Paddick actually said, and this struck me quite clearly, was that they had had no reports of anyone being shot dead. Leaving open the possibility that someone had been shot but was still alive, in which case one would think they would want to interrogate them.

Spot on Rubes, I remember thinking that if they had prevented another attack then it would have been all over the news. They've obviously taken this guy down in Canary Wharf and are probably at this minute doing things that would upset Amnesty International something awful.

Edit: shit shit, not the right thread for it. sorry.

I feel for the people who involve themselves in this awful situation for the good of others. They are truly admirable people and I know I couldn't do it myself.

I hope the Emergency Services are well rewarded, in all senses of the word.

wow! the pic shows a fair few people standing up on the top deck after the blast :eek:

A very similar pic was in the Substandard yesterday, labelled as having been taken within a minute or two of the bus bomb.

I didn't understand all those people still standing either ...

it would fit with the explotion beeing largly at the rear of the bus....the roof would have been ripped off from the upward force of the blast meaning the front end would have been largly uneffected....its a good thing the roof ripped off so released the force of the blast or alot more of those people could have been killed
:(

somebody on another forum has said that a bomb has been found on a bus in Wood Green, anyone in this area please confirm this?

Nah - there's a lot of FUD going around. (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt). Just focus now on the injured and the ones who've passed on, our hearts go out to those affected by this,
 
A question to those with technical knowledge of these things. Would the seemimgly high incidence of the shredding of bodies in these attacks indicate the use of shrapnel in the devices ?.

No. It would be metal and glass. I don't want to think about it.
