Collateral Damage?

There is no one responsible for today's attacks on London except the murderers themselves. But it should be clear to everyone that we are losing the war on terror. It has been mismanaged from the very beginning , and continues to damage the security and financial stability of our nation and our allies....

But just so that we will know that they can hit us whenever and wherever they like, we were treated to today's carnage. Not one strike , but six, right in the middle of the most important conference of world leaders, the day after London is awarded the Olympics. If this is not a sign that we are losing, and that some very bad people are capable of abusing us with impunity, I don't know what is.

All the tanks, all the bombers, all the ships all the hundreds of thousands of soldiers about which the president likes to boast he has deployed in the war on terror did not save a single soul in London today.
