The bodies of six gods were found after their spaceship crashed just outside London.

Yes...they at first said it was a power surge but with the bus explosions they have stated that they're not ruling out a terrorist attack.

Ok...now they're saying 90 casualties (meaning they were injured), and possably 20 dead...but of course it might rise since this occured at rush hour.

Here's a list of areas hit:
King's Cross
All Street
Tavistock Square
Aldgate Station
Liverpool street
Russell Square.

Update: some 90 casualties and two confirmed deaths. Source CNN

And I wonder who it is, because if it is a terrorist attack someone needs to claim responsibility for the attack.

Nothing has been confirmed yet. Nobody ever said that it's a terrorist attack, but the possibility is there.

Tony Blair has just said in his speach that what occured in London was a terrorist attack.

There are also rumors that moments before the attacks Scotland Yard was warned by Isreali officials. But that's just a rumor as the Chief of Police has stated he is not aware of such a warning.

Does he know more than we do? I don't think so, at least not at this point. And he said "it is reasonably clear that is was a terrorist attack". That doesn't mean, that it was a terrorist attack.

And it could also be someone or some people that wanted the G8 not to happen.

Exactly what AC says. Al-Kaida is not the only terrorist group in the world.

For those worried about relatives, you can email sky news
and they will put a message up at the bottom of the screen asking the
person you're worried about to contact home.

Apperantly an unknown group is claiming responsibility for the attack in the name of Al Quaida.

The letter has not been confirmed as authentic yet. So, we are as clever as before.

I just want people to remain open-minded, not that they go all "We hate Al-Qaida" and blaming them for something they haven't done.
