    Like I said it's racist bollocks. Every time something like this happens middle eastern people emerge as the first "suspects". It happened in the Oklahoma Bombing, which was committed by a white American.

    Is it too conspiracy theoryish to suggest that North Korea could have had a serious say in this? They've been threatening attacks and it's April 15th.

    the link dtlw posted is miles better than the BBC's coverage at the moment http://www.livestream.com/necn_live

    Yes. North Korea would not set off a series of small pipebombs. Serves no purpose.

    Apparently the police in that picture are urging civilians to stay away.

    :( What a sad day. I hope that those injured make it through and my thoughts go out to all those caught up in this horrific incident. Really really sad.

    I have to say it's pretty frightening how many people have jumped to conclusions and started pointing the finger at Islam. Not606 is basically the only site I can go to where that's not the case. Good for us, I guess.

    Just checked, and nope. It's mainly just IRA jokes. If anyone plans on going there, be warned, there is a very graphic picture of a man missing his leg below the knee. In high quality. Not for the faint hearted.
