Fuck Off, Terrorists!
Stu posted a link to this piece -- "A Letter To The Terrorists, From London" -- within Comments on a post, but I thought it deserved a posting of its own:
What the fuck do you think you're doing?This is London. We've dealt with your sort before. You don't try and pull this on us.
Do you have any idea how many times our city has been attacked? Whatever you're trying to do, it's not going to work.
All you've done is end some of our lives, and ruin some more. How is that going to help you? You don't get rewarded for this kind of crap.
And if, as your MO indicates, you're an al-Qaeda group, then you're out of your tiny minds.
Because if this is a message to Tony Blair, we've got news for you. We don't much like our government ourselves, or what they do in our name. But, listen very clearly. We'll deal with that ourselves. We're London, and we've got our own way of doing things, and it doesn't involve tossing bombs around where innocent people are going about their lives.
And that's because we're better than you. Everyone is better than you. Our city works. We rather like it. And we're going to go about our lives. We're going to take care of the lives you ruined. And then we're going to work. And we're going down the pub.
So you can pack up your bombs, put them in your arseholes, and get the fuck out of our city.
Reminds me of the story of the hostage who hired bounty hunters to go after his captors. Likewise, I've got a fantasy of some ordinary people going after Bin Laden and the rest of his murderous clan, à la the hair-curlered, housedress-wearing "The Landlady"/superhero in Kung Fu Hustle.







The fantasy about ordinary Brits going after bin Laden will probably remain one. Not only is a British subject not in the military or police forbidden to possess arms, they are increasingly prosecuted for engaging in self-defense.
Maybe this episode will show someone that in Britain, the layman knows what is right.

To paraphrase a friend from London:
"We've been bombed by a better class of bastards than you. We survived the Blitz AND the IRA! Good luck making a dent in our lives..."
