Today the title of"9.11 reappear"is on the newspaper.
The terrorist attacked London.And several people were died,many people were hurt.After hearing that what do you think of ?

In fact,I don't like those countries which attacked Irap.Sometimes I want some people can give a blow to those countries.But I mean the person who like start the wars,the goverment which like bully other countries.Not the people in those country.People are guiltless,they do nothing.But the terrorist let some guiltless people lost their life,let others lost their friends,relations.It is no reasons to forgive the killer.

The English are not a nation that just rolls over and plays dead.
This attack by Islamic terrorists will merely harden their resolve to defeat the cowards who do this kind of thing.
I am in London right now and life is back to normal already.

London

Although I don't agree with the the terrorists attacks, I think that England is not the most inocent country in the world. Maybe they didn't disurb this kind of attack, but they are doing the same kind of things around the world (Irak). So, if you're doing bad things around the world, you have to accept the consecuences. that's all.[/b]

Yes Manuel - Argentina found out it does not pay to mess with England.
But at least Argentina fought fair and square with military forces.

Why do the terrorists attack London when what they really hate is America? Do they imagine the Brits are as weak and cowardly at the Spanish? If so, they are pathetically mistaken and will find that Brits are made of sterner stuff.

I can�t be more amazed of what you have just written.
England is as guilty as the USA, I mean, not the innocent people, but the people who is in the goverment and killing people around the world, dissurbes it.

Now I understand why in Argertina you suffered ditactors like Videla.Moreover, you Argentinians have always hated England after being defeated in the Faklands War.

By the way, you began that war...

Nearly one year ago, the terrorists made a video, in which they read out a list of all their enemy countries. Now the thierd country on their list has been attacked and they won't stop, until they've had their revance.

It's good to see, that the English don't do what the terrorists expected them to do. Their iron and brave attidude weaks the terrorists power.

I suppose that in China you must play a different kind of football.
Football is not war, although you might make an argument that it is a substitute for it.

Do you have any constructive idea?An argument over a game is better than that over a really happened war.

We play exact foot ball,you may call it soccer Wink

I think, that many people see foot ball as somethink really serios.
For many of my friends, it's not just a game, its getting hornor for the country and maybe its a replacement of war. Maybe.

good guys and bad ones are exist in any nation.i think the first criminal in this terroristic attacks is tony blair who helped his friend in hell club George W.C. in launching a terroristic attack on iraq an d the unfair punishments against IRAQI PEOPLE since gulf war II.
any way ugly attacks,clear reasons,ambiguous doers

I'm going to set in clear that I, as a lot of people in my country (Argentina) don�t hate England (as a matter of fact I adopted English as my second language).But when Argentina declared the war to England, twenty years ago, the country was ruled by a group of military forces that had nothing to do with the interests of the majority fof the people (this military forces had taken the power helped by the USA in a hidden way)
I cannot deny that there were hundreds of people supporting the war,but the cleverer people always knew that we were going to loose it.
And that�s all, I regret of having started this Argentina-England discussion that had nothing to do with the central subject. I will continue in the forum with my opinions that may hurt some people when I say that their leaders are the biggest terrorists in the world.
ps:thanks for teaching me what Tao is.
