HUGE shoutout!

Well done to the members of the Metropolitan Police, the bomb squad, and all of the people involved in discovering, defusing, and removing the bomb found in Central London.

I don't even want to imagine what would have happened had it gone off...

I haven't had a chance to read the paper this week, do you have a link I could read more about this?

Thank God they found it.

The bomb was found at 1 am this morning:

I haven't seen the news but that is good news....sort of.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yeah... By all reports it was an evil device...

[onlylisa.livejournal.com]

I hope they get whoever is behind it too.

Officers carried out a controlled explosion on the car which was loaded with 60 litres of petrol, gas cylinders and nails

:O

Had it not been for the call to aid someone who was ill, they never would have discovered it.  That would have been devestating if it had gone off.  My hat's off to those who helped avoid a very dire situation, too!

A lot of luck involved... And an eagle eyed paramedic!

It was designed to cause carnage... When will humanity learn?

[the-ravyn.livejournal.com]

Probably never.  Let's just hope they catch the dirty cur who planted this thing...it could lead to more of the group hellbent on doing something crazy.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yeah... Put 'em all away... Bastards...

[the-ravyn.livejournal.com]

Beeb says they're now looking at a second suspect car the area...sheesh...

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I heard about that... Ugh

[evergladesqueen.livejournal.com]

Crazy! I have been watching it all day while at work.
{Reading only headlines of course} I am glad that nothing
occured.
*hugs*

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yeah... we dodged a bullet today...

[evergladesqueen.livejournal.com]

more like several nails. :::shakes head left/right:::
I am truly thankful nothing happened. I know the responsible
parties are eating their livers right now at their failure.
I thought about you though. Wondered how close you may have
been to the area...
*hugs*
