Your strenuous efforts to deny the obvious are impressive, James, but "going postal" is not a satisfactory explanation of the London bombings. There is every reason to believe the prime motivation was political, and I think we can safely assume that Hussain et al. were not, say, IRA sympathizers, Basque separatists or members of the Fuerzas Armadas Liberacion Nacional Puertoriquena. Grievance over Iraq seems the most likely cause for their actions. Here we have George Bush and Tony Blair "democratizing" Iraq in what appears to be an exercise in ritual humiliation of Islamic people. Here, too, we have the electorates of both the US and UK saying, "Way to go, George and Tony!" and returning both war criminals to office. George Bush said that his reelection was a "moment of accountability" for the war on Iraq -- the London bombings look like another.
