Sounds like a BS friend-of-a-friend story to me. Do you really think Reuters would sit on it?

Do you really think Reuters would sit on it?

Do I believe Reuters would actually "sit" on a story giving Islam an (additional) black eye, PR-wise?

Is this a trick question, of some sort...? :)

Never, not for five minutes.

My sister said on Thursday that this happened at Canary Wharf!

My sister just moved back to the US 2 weeks ago after living in the UK for 15 years. Her boyfriend in London called her on Thursday after the bombings to say that he was OK and told her that a bomber had been shot at Canary Wharf by police. I didn't really believe her at the time thinking it was probably just panicked rumors.

Perhaps I was wrong.

They might, if the government insisted. I trust the truth will come out somehow.

If I see an a young Arab male with a white undershirt showing who smells like frankincense and who raises his hands and starts to say something like "Allah....". That's as far as he will get before I bust a cap. You see, in Texas, we are legally packin'. I say we start polygraphing every muslim that we even vaguely suspect and if they are sympathetic to terrorists, we deport them. Better yet, we EXPAND GITMO!

YES, YES and YES!

Can't be telling the people that the cops did their job and stopped the wholesale slaughter of innocent people.

And .. it looks like this might have been timed to coincide with the London attacks.
