"They will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear ..."

Yesterday London was celebrating.

Today it's bleeding.

I applaud Prime Minister Tony Blair's strong statement:

"It is important that those engaged in terrorism realise that our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction to innocent people in a desire to impose extremism on the world.

"Whatever they do, it is our determination that they will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear in this country and in other civilised nations throughout the world."

My prayers today are with our British cousins.

And my hope is that every one of the murderers responsible is hunted down.
