The bombings in England have left my as dumbfounded as when 911 occurred in the US. It doesn't matter where or when terrorism strikes, it is always a shocking and scary realization at how vulnerable we still are to any truly malevolent forces.

Many bloggers will do a much better job than myself summing up the horrible events of today so I am not going to bore you with my interpretation. However, Mattie of Blackfive has a very good article about the attack on England here.

Hat tip to Mattie for finding a way to say "thank-you" to Tony Blair. I am copying this link from him. When you click on the link, you will be directed to a form that you can fill in a personal message to say "thank-you" for all the support he and his country have given the USA. The link says these mssages will be printed on paper and shipped weekly to the Prime Minister's office at 10 Downing Street in London. It only takes a few seconds so go there and let him know we appreciate the man and empathize with what he and England are going through right now.
