The truth remains that a rather unremakable ex US marine marksman killed JFK in the deluded belief that he was furthering his political aims. Diana was killed by a drunk driver.

The remarkable can be killed by the unremarkable,

America still can't come to terms with that consequently they're going to struggle with 9/11.
Yeah - but nobody jumped up and down pointing the finger at UK.Gov or sercurity service...etc.

Yes obviously the amount killed is not on the scale of 9/11 - but to be fair 7/7 could have been far worse and could easily have approached 1000 dead....

It was only poor time management and one failed explosive that prevented a larger loss...

But some of the people that question the American Gov of involvement are not all crackpots...

I am still on the fence - not enough evidence either way to pull me in one direction or the other....so still have an open mind.

But I am also minded of how close the Bush family were to the Bin ladens...and that doesn't sit well with me...

Or the fact that the Taliban was cutting of the supply of Heroin - only to find that they would be routed and ousted from Afgaf so the poppy can be allowed to grow again....War is an ugly business...but what is uglier is the spectre's that sit behind the show
