Terrorists don't throw rocks: London bombings and the G8
British and London authorities should be ashamed of themselves. 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
leave their home unprotected from real terrorists.

While authorities declare the anti-terrorist "section 60" in Scotland
around the G8 protestor's eco-village in Stirling, real terrorists
rained horror in London.

Anti-terror troops were too busy doing crowd control around people who
at most throw a few rocks, and today's attack makes it clearer than ever
that political repression in the name of anti-terrorism is not making
the world safe from terrorists.

It takes a Scot to say the Truth bluntly.

2. Twit - look at the pictures today - look, lots of police dealing with
what was in fact FOUR "major incidents". And there are reports that the army was deployed in central London this morning.

4. Go, Scotland!
As in the U.S., Britian tries to say that protestors are terrorists, but by this grim example, we can see the utter nonsense of that propagandistic attempt.

Get a clue -- terrorists use bombs and don't gather in public.
