The Skinny on the London Bombing The Tall Skinny Kiwi, Andrew Jones, posts his perspective on the bombings from London. The situation London finds itself in, following Live 8 and G8 and now the bombing, is, in his words (well, his and Charles Dickens's):
... the best of times and the worst of times. An outpouring of justice for the poor, and a spiritual backlash to accompany it. A great victory and a small defeat. A crushing of the head of injustice and a bruising of London's heel. An opportunity for the nation to practice godly compassion and save millions of lives or an excuse to cower to ungodly fear and go back to our prisons of self-contentment
