There is one word for it - Brainwashed
No one should be celebrating or be in agreement to the killings of innocent people
Apart from that, I do see tons of hypocrisy and controversy... I think so many people need to wake up and consider all life is sacred and no one has the right to kill others, to murder or let people die.. We need to redefine the word Terrorism, I think dropping a bomb with the intention to kill anyone is an act of terrorism. I think the people of Iraq and Afghanistan, Gaza and West Bank, Sudan, Congo etc.. have been terrorised and that has been allowed to continue...
Dare I write.. As well as doing some good to the world and their people - I think the US (as well as others) is a country that has committed heinous acts of terrorism. I was watching a BBC programme last night about A bombs that killed tens of thousands of innocent Japanese people, for a cause the US believed in and to this day the man who let the bomb drop, feels no remorse - because it was his mission/job, he was not punished. You would think one day his conscience woulad have gotten to him.
Regarding what is happening in Iraq and has happened in Afghanistan... bombs that have been dropped (did anyone see the Channel 4 clip of the US pilot who dropped a bomb on a crowd of Iraqi demonstrators and said *oh Dude*, like he was playing a computer game?) that can still often cause horrific damage to people, well after they have fallen onto the ground - e.g some children in Afghanistan, are often attracted to the shiny balls, lying in the fields, these things explode in their hands, a result of cluster bombings..
If we do weigh up the actions of the US and UK compared to those which are carried out by suicide bombers, it is the latter whose acts are a drop in the ocean and we mustn't forget about that... and we mustn't forget there is a war going on and innocent people are dying all around the world, not just those 53 people who died in the London bombings, but also those who have been allowed to die via bombs or starvation and curable diseases.. let's get real and refocus where our emotions should be directed.. not just to the few important Westerners, but to all that needlessly suffer and die.
