Terror in our midst.
I should think the Police deserve our praise for the quick way in which they have managed to home in on the suspects for the attempted bombings. Considering that they started out without anything to go on other than the cars and their contents they have done a remarkable job. It will have been helped by the capture of two injured bombers at Glasgow airport, but it is still a remarkable job.
It remains to be seen what these idiots hoped to achieve and precisely what their plan was, although I would suspect that it was supposed to be a co-ordinated attack with the cars in London going off at the same time as the attack in Glasgow. It may even have been the intention to recover the London cars and drive them into some target in a suicide attack. All will no doubt come out in the wash eventually.
In the meantime we have to be vigilant, we have to be unafraid and we have to weed out this enemy lurking in our midst and all those that support and conceal them. There is no excuse for this sort of cowardly attack on civilians.

Some days I do ok when I hear about this stuff... other days I wonder about the children I brought into this world and what they are going to have to face.

I share your concern, but studying the collapse of the Roman Empire, I now have a very clear idea of what the citizens must have felt as their stable society disintegrated around them. I just hope that ours is not doing the same thing - there are so many parallels....
