London Bombings

My heart is with the friends and relatives of those who died in London earlier today. I hope that peace enters their hearts, and the hearts of whoever perpetrated this tragedy. I pray that this attack does not cause hatred and war, as the attackers probably hoped, but only peace and justice. In the end, that is the best revenge on terrorists.
In my history class this year, we discussed early terrorist organizations in tsarist Russia. They wanted to kill those who supported reform especially, because a contented populace won't revolt. Terrorism is an extension of the same line of reasoning. Muslims and non-Muslims in England must remember this, and show their friendship now more than ever.
I fly no flag, but if I did, mine would be at half-mast today. So consider it such.

Edit: On a completely different note, I'm apparently a LG dwarven wizard. The last two...let's just say inherent contradiction, shall we?
