    The power surge theory certainly holds no water any more

    sorry, the timing just seems very alarming and hard to be coincidental

    True, although with a lot of UK sites slowing down due to the hits, its good to have a lot of different sources.

    Hardly great timing, London will STILL have the olympics. It would have been done last week.

    MY speculation (and thats what it is at this time) is that it has to be G8 related.

    Attack on Infrastructure, not targetting people. During Gleneagles, lower policing levels, financial targets. Mainly the CITY of London - the Money making region. It targets Tourism, Infrastructure, business and public confidence. The whole of the underground shut down with few injuries?

    So, an attack by a fundementalist group seems unlikely too.

    BBC down, Sky News down, Reuters down. I thought these people could handle the traffic of major news!

    Fox is reporting "highly coordinated terrorist attacks" against public/mass transportation system. Not simultaneous, are happening one after another.

    90 casulaties thus far. Do not think it's over. Feed coming through Sky News.

    Yea ST, wonder who's behind it?
