"The Israeli Embassy in London was notified in advance, resulting in Finance Minister Binyamin Netanyahu remaining in his hotel room rather than make his way to the hotel adjacent to the site of the first explosion, a Liverpool Street train station, where he was to address an economic summit."

[Reg] Odd isn't it? Of course I'm sure Pat has a perfectly good explanation for this...

[Me] Yeah, I heard this too...that they got a warning "minutes" before it happened. But  what were they supposed to do Reg?  World leaders get threats all the time and have to react in whatever way they see fit.  But tell me, are you implying that the Israelis had something to do with this hideous act of terrorism (and extreme cowardice so common to Al-Queda)?  Scotland Yard got the same warning after all. And why in the hell would Israel go on a terrorist spree on one of their closest allies?  Seriously? What is the point you're trying to make here?
