i don’t claim to know all the details about this, as i don’t. but regardless if the police failed to identify themselves, if the man didn’t pull the trigger while on the bus, what made them think he was gonna do it in the tunnel? mysterious.

if the man indeed was a bomber and the police shot him to death, the police wouldn’t have been my hero, either. my questions will still stand. the way they handled this is criminal. that is, failure to stop and question the man early is incompetence and negligence; killing a man who was merely a suspect with 6 shots in the head is barbaric. i have no doubt of the police’s good intent btw.

the only way to stop terrorism is to change the foreign policies and stop the interference to the arab world. as long as this doesn’t change, the terrorists who blow themselves up, the casualties caused by the bombing, the u.s. and brit troops died in the war along with those iraqis, and retrospectively, those who died in 9-11, etc., are all victims of the awfully wrong and imperial foreign policies that have been promoted for decades by the governments of the u.s., brit and others.
