SomethingJewishUK‘s Leslie Bunder reports that Londoners are responding to the terror bombings with their characteristic stiff upper lips:
Incidents like these don’t discriminate. All human beings, whether Jewish or Sikh, Muslim or Christian are targets. As a city that celebrates cultural diversity, Londoners have been united in condemning what has happened. At hospitals across the capital, Muslim doctors and medical staff worked with others to help the wounded and try to save those who were dying. Members of the Jewish community volunteered their time to unite with other Londoners to offer support.
We again offer up our own shock and sadness to our friends across the pond. We hope you find solace in Shabbos, in your family, in the 2012 Olympic bid and the knowledge that there are many more good people than terrorists in this world, even if the latter bogart all the bombs.
