| They got 'em! |
Scotland Yard got it done. Either one or four of the London bus bombers were killed in the bombings, police have recovered personal documents and other material, traced the bombers' route from Yorkshire to the Kings Cross rail station via those ubiquitious London cameras, identified the bus bomber, and arrested one suspect following five raids on homes in Leeds and Yorkshire. It seems that part of what led to the suspects was a call from a family member of one of the bombers reporting him missing shortly after the blasts. It's not confirmed, but CNN Inernational was saying earlier that neighbors of some of the suspects had reported that their neighbors -- a group of possibly Pakistani men -- had gone missing. Scotland Yard still not willing to say the bombers were of the suicide variety. Fucking brilliant, those Brits. Fantastic news.
