Short Note from London

July 9, 2005 By jennifer

This post has absolutely nothing to do with the environment – but everything to do with getting over the bombings of last Thursday. I am of British stock. My mother migrated to Australia from England after WWII, my father’s family way back in 1860. I remember being in London as a teenager in the 1970s when the IRA was setting off bombs.

Anyway, the London News Review ran the following note on the 7 July 2005:

What the f*** do you think you’re doing?

This is London. We’ve dealt with your sort before. You don’t try and pull this on us.

Do you have any idea how many times our city has been attacked? Whatever you’re trying to do, it’s not going to work.

All you’ve done is end some of our lives, and ruin some more. How is that going to help you? You don’t get rewarded for this kind of crap.

And if, as your MO indicates, you’re an al-Qaeda group, then you’re out of your tiny minds.

Because if this is a message to Tony Blair, we’ve got news for you. We don’t much like our government ourselves, or what they do in our name. But, listen very clearly. We’ll deal with that ourselves. We’re London, and we’ve got our own way of doing things, and it doesn’t involve tossing bombs around where innocent people are going about their lives.

And that’s because we’re better than you. Everyone is better than you. Our city works. We rather like it. And we’re going to go about our lives. We’re going to take care of the lives you ruined. And then we’re going to work. And we’re going down the pub.

So you can pack up your bombs, put them in your arseholes, and get the f*** out of our city.

    Jennifer,

    I just wish that the media would stop using the term “Terrorist” for these people.
    They are mindless cowardly murdering cur scum. They are not warriors in any sense and stand for no idealogical, or socially acceptable ( in any culture )idealology.
    Headlines of any newspaper article should read, “Scum of all people on earth skulkingly murder innocents again.”
