Some random thoughts:
Tony Blair's "immediate response" was pitch perfect. It made GWB's famous "stunned silence" (having been told of 9/11) look even more idiotic. He perhaps could employ some other rhetorical dveices to generate dramatic tension rather than ..... pausing.... quite..... so.... often .....though.
7/7 just has no ring to it. Better than 7/11 obviously. November 9th would have been an especially auspicious date, reading in Queen's English as it does, 9/11. I guess at least 7/7 removes any trans-atlantic day/month/day confusion.
When the world leaders lined up behind Tony, how come only GWB looked like an uncomfortable school child? He kept sneaking glances at Jacques and Vladimir. Also is a brown suit really appropriate for Gleneagles? Wouldn't black, or very dark navy have been more appropriate for deciding that fate of the planet?
