I susoect the results of the poll reported in the clip in fact understate the case. It may well be that a significant number of those surveyed were unwilling to state their true views for fear of reprisals or whatever.

I have worked closely with Muslims for over 16 years now and can state quite categorically that the vast majority of those with whom I work and share friendship simply don’t accept the official version of 7/7. And these are not terrorists, or extremists, or fundamentalists… simply ordinary folk just trying to live their lives  and provide for their families without interference.

And I, as a non-Muslim, find mysef agreeing with them. Far too many anomalies about the entire 7/7 episode to warrant unquestioning acceptance of the official version.

And when this is put in context of the deceptions that were practised on the British public by the government and the media in the lead-up to the Iraq war, is it any wonder that whatever explanations they produce will lack credibility?

Ludicrous Diversion - 7/7 London Bombings Documentary

Getting sidetracked from what I was originally doing into following a series of links through successive webpages (as one does!) I finally ended up watching this excellent documentary about the London bombings.

The accompanying text describes it as follows:

On the 7th of July 2005 London was hit by a series of explosions. You probably think you know what happened that day. But you don’t.

The police have, from the onset of their investigation, chosen to withold from the public almost every bit of evidence they claim to have and have probably lied about several aspects of the London Bombings.

The mainstream news has wilfully spread false, unsubstantiated and unverifiable information, while choosing to completely ignore the numerous inconsistencies and discrepancies in the official story.

The government has finally, after a year, presented us with their official ‘narrative’ concerning the event. Within hours it was shown to contain numerous errors, a fact since admitted by the Home Secretary John Reid. They have continuously rejected calls for a full, independent public inquiry. Tony Blair himself described such an inquiry as a ‘ludicrous diversion’. What don’t they want us to find out?

But that really doesn’t do it justice.

For not only does it raise important questions about the bombings and the events that followed therefrom, it also addresses some much more profound issues that touch upon all our lives (here in the UK at least).

This is a documentary you absolutely owe it to yourself to see… and sooner rather than later!
