*feels sick*

Oh, my word. A tourist bus? The Underground? And they've only confirmed two casualties as yet, when you know there are bound to be far, far more than that?

For all the Londoners on my f-list and elsewhere on LJ -- for all the citizens of London and the tourists visiting there, whoever and wherever you are -- I am praying right now. I remember visiting London, ten years ago. I remember loving it. I can't imagine the horror of seeing it ripped apart by bombs.

We have to wonder, when, where and to what end, does this violence start proving something other than it proves nothing?

Where do we go from here, World War 3? And who else has to die?

And, of course, it's easier still when you can go to another country and kill other people's children. *rubs forehead* Man.

"And the unvolunteered sacrifice goes unnoticed
Like a plague set upon by bombs
Until we're left alone; just you, and me
With the remenants of World War Three."

Here's to the next generation, and the hope they can do something we weren't able to.
