2005 London bombings
though be advised that the official narrative is particularly suspect.
The 7 July 2005 London bombings, also known as 7/7, were a series of coordinated attacks on London's public transport system during the morning rush hour. The bombings were allegedly carried out by four British Muslim men, three of Pakistani and one of Jamaican descent. At least three bombs exploded within fifty seconds of each other at about 08:50 on three London Underground trains, a fourth exploded an hour later at 09:47 on a double-decker bus in Tavistock Square. Fifty six people including the alleged bombers died in the attacks and about another 700 were injured.
It is important to note that, as at June 2010, nearly 5 years after the events, no judicial proceedings relating to responsibility for the attacks have been concluded. There have been two 'pre-inquest' hearings into procedural matters concerning a pending Coroners Inquest into the deaths. It remains an open question whether or not an Inquest will be held. Other than the police investigation, there has been no official inquiry into the events. A Parliamentary Report by the Intelligence and Security Committee has been published, as has a Government response to the ISC report.
The 'July 7th Truth Campaign' linked below is among the most comprehensive and reliable sources of information and documents on 7/7. It is nevertheless careful, editorially, to stay firmly on the 'official narrative' side of a very sensitive line between "elements of the State/SIS knew much more about plans for the attack than has been revealed" and "those same elements were somewhere between 'deeply complicit' and the orchestrators of the attacks".
The "July 7th - Alternative Hypotheses" document is an impressive exploration of nine possible hypotheses that, in varying degrees, fit the available evidence of what happened on that day. It is another 7th July Truth Campaign document.
The main Wikipedia article linked below is the subject of the WikiSpooks Project article The Problem with Wikipedia. In other words, whilst the article marshalls copious useful facts and information links, it's basic assumption is that the official narrative of the events of 7th July 2005 is broadly accurate.
Note: Per WikiSpooks editorial policy - contributions to this page should take a much more sceptical view of the official narrative.
Note: the ad-hominem attack on Nick Kollerstrom for alleged 'holocaust denial' in the BBC 'Conspiracy Files' video linked below. This is in addition to a similar ad-hominem on Anthony John Hill (aka Muad' dib) over his video 'Ripple-Effect'. It is clear that, 'When the evidence is shaky, attack the man' - or kill the messenger - is alive and well at the BBC.
