London bombed
Yesterday, the subways of London was bombed. Total dead is not yet known.
There are several possible motives for the bombing.
1) To intimidate the G-8 summit taking place in Gerthshire, Scotland. The G-8 summit is the meeting with the leaders of the 8 wealthiest nations on Earth (USA, Great Britain, France, Japan, Canada, Germany, Italy, Russia). The G-8 summit was to discuss topics like Islamic terrorism, poverty in Africa, and environmental pollution.
2) It was only days earlier when it was announced that London was to host the Olympics in 2012. Other cities that were considered for hosting the 2012 Olympics included New York, Paris, Madrid and Moscow. It is possible that whatever city was announced to be a host for the Olympics was to be bombed. Meaning if Moscow won the hosting rights, it would've been bombed. If it was New York, we'd be hearing about another attack on NY.
So why attack the Olympics. The Olympics was supposed to be about bringing people together through athletic competition. Islamic terrorists don't like that. So they could've bombed London for the purpose of intimidation.
3) Al Quaida's retaliation for the USA and the UK for fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. But remember, the USA and the UK are the good guys in the War on Terror. So we shouldn't use the London bombing as an excuse to back down!
Remember all this stuff about the Guantanamo Bay prison. Some wanted it to be shut down. I say this bombing reminds us why we need Guantanamo Bay prison!
