Brits To al Qaeda: "Bollocks!"
The most striking thing about the attacks on London yesterday, apart from their sheer barbarity, was the equanimity with which they were absorbed by most Brits. The lack of panic, the lack of hand-wringing -- the lack of terror, in other words, was the most notable reaction.If you realize that the point of the attack (or one of the points, anyway) was to induce terror in the populace -- they're not called terrorists for nothing -- you can see how the reaction of the Brits was the most useful one possible: stoic resilience with more than a bit of the attitude shown to the left.
G'on Brits, yer all anchor spreadable!
