We are with You
Today, I am going to post off-topic by choice (I'll make this up another day.) I think it's horrible what's happened in London and hope the people of the UK know that we are with them in this time of national grief.
I have never heard of "The Secret Organization of Al Qaeda in Europe" - I suppose that's why they were a secret. If their goal was to sway opinion about our fight against global terror, they missed their mark. If anything, I think you will see a stronger resolve to maintain our vigilance against terrorism.
Today, the Sons of the Republic blog had the following statement posted from Prime Minister Tony Blair:
"It's important, however, that those engaged in terrorism realize that our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction to innocent people in a desire to impose extremism on the world.
"Whatever they do, it is our determination that they will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear in this country and in other civilized nations throughout the world...
"We shall prevail and they shall not." - Tony Blair, July 7, 2005
You go, Tony. We are with you.

Nice post. I agree that this will strengthen resolve. If you want to stomach some unbelievable, cynical comments about this event, check out Daily Kos.
Thanks! You need to show me how to post pictures on my blog - the cartoons on yours are very funny.
I use Google Image Search (http://images.google.com) and usually incorporate the word "cartoon" in what I'm looking for.
When you go to a new post, there's an icon that looks like a picture in your blog window. Click on that and you have the option of browsing for a file from your hard drive or inserting a link from a website (that's what I do).
You will see a few options to determine where your picture will be placed in your blog. It's explained very well. Let me know if you have any trouble!
I think your post was great and not off topic because this terrorist attack is effecting our daily lives. I wrote about the attacks in London on my blog too. With all the horrible websites out there it is important that our class sites show support for those suffering.
