> 
> Police said the small blasts happened at Warren Street, Oval and Shepherd’s Bush stations.
> 
> Transport Police told ITN there was an injury when a device exploded on an Underground train near the Warren Street station, in the center of the capital. There are no other reports of casualties.
> 
> The area around the station has been sealed off and a bomb squad is on the scene to check for any other explosive devices.
> 
> All three stations were evacuated and the three affected Tube lines – Hammersmith & City, Victoria and Northern – have been closed, according to a spokesperson for Transport for London.
> 
> Scotland Yard also responded to a report of a blast on a bus in Hackney, east London. The bus appeared to be intact and a witness said a bomb-sniffing dog was on the scene.
> 
> A bus company spokesman told ITN the driver of the 26 bus heard a “bang” from the top of his bus. The driver said windows were blown out of the bus. No injuries were reported.
> 
> Police said they were not treating the evacuations as a “major incident.”
> 
> Ambulances were called to Oval station at 12:38 p.m. (7:38 a.m. ET), and sent three vehicles. At 12:45 p.m., a call came in from Warren Street. Five vehicles were sent there.

> CNN London producer Katie Turner reported a heavy police presence near the Oval station, including about 30 police vehicles. Roads about 500 meters from the station have been blocked off to vehicular traffic, she said.
> 
> A woman who was on the train at the Oval station when the incident happened said she did not hear a bang, but saw people pushing themselves into her carriage.
> 
> She said there was a general mood of panic, but the train was not packed. The train was moving when the incident happened.
> 
> Other people said they smelled sour smoke.
> 
> Prime Minister Tony Blair postponed a planned photocall with Australian Prime Minister John Howard, on an official visit to Britain and planned to address the nation later Thursday.

> The White House said President George W. Bush has been informed of the incidents, which happened two weeks after the July 7 attacks on the London transit system, killing 52 people and four of the bombers.

I used to work near the Hackney Road tube station… after the last attacks I emailed my old bosses to make sure they were safe, and they were OK. This really pisses me off and scares me… ☹

one of the suspects was shot and killed during some step of this new attack

the previous terroroists spent 1000 dollars on calogne to mast the odor of the chemical explosives they were carrying

this second attack failed because despite attempting to use the same type of homemade explosives as the first attack, they were mixed wrong and didnt detonate, only the blasting caps went off

during one of these attacks, someone could smell the chemical bomb and allerted others, i beleive this iwas at the same location where the suspect was shot and killed

This could have been so much worse, its fortunate that the bombers screwed up so badly. Im pretty sure no one was killed by the actual attack, thankfully.

I don’t, and I’ll tell you why.

Years before you were born and years before we even gave a rats ass about what was happening in Iraq (for example…I’m assuming thats what your talking about), Iraqi’s were the ones fighting Sadam. Speaking in particular about a family I consider my own. One by one families like this were killed off by Loyalists. Some of those people gave their whole life and their own life fighting a good cause.

I don’t feel like typing anymore and there is a customer walking in… But to bomb a whole country over a select group is the most retarded idea ever and I willl argue it untill I turn blue in the face.

It would be like if Catholics (no offense i am one) started killing Candians. Should Canada nuke the whole U.S. if American Catholics started bombing Canada. No.

Thank you, come again.
