conspiracy theories about July 7

[Ardesco]

Do a search on the internet for information on it. Some of it is rubbish but there are a few unaswered questions that really should be answered.

What I find surprising is that these 4 people were so successful, yet nobody else has even come close.

The Irish were pretty successful

[Ardesco]

not sure what the benefit to the Government would be either?

• A new bogeyman to direct our fear an anger at.
• A reason to pass legislation to allow us to hold terrorists wihtout charge for much longer periods of time
• A way to hype ID cards as the only way to defeat evil acts like this

The list goes on....

It doesn't matter if some part of the government was involved/knew about it or not, they still got themselves a new public whipping boy and a reason to pass legislation to reduce our freedom all in the name of "security"

There are still files not released after 50 years. I doubt they'd ever have to release them if they didn't want to.

I don't buy government conspiracy theories simply because I've worked for long enough in the public sector to doubt the government's competence to carry something like this off.

Of course, you would say that

How is the weather down in Vauxhall today?

All very 1984!

Nope.

Some of it might come out after 30 years, 50 years, 75 years and 100 years.

Some of it will never come out ever.

Studies of the real cost of ID cards are being shredded as we speak....

What about the BBC reporter who reported a building had collapsed, when it was clearly still standing behind her, then it did collapse 20 minutes later.

My point exactly.

If there is a big evil group of muslim terrorists plotting to blow us all up why haven't they done it again? Lets face it, it can't be that hard to get hold of something that will injure somebody, walk into a public place and use it...

This message is hidden because angusglover is on your ignore list.

Another racist for my growing list...

[SallyAnne]

Muslims are the least of our worries....looks like the Russians are the most likely to knack us now (if today's Independant is anything to go by!)

I wonder what hurts more - being blown up by a "terrorist", or being nuked?
