Well, of course the usual idiots are about gloating over the bombing in London, and using it as evidence that the war on terror is a failure because Islamic whack jobs can still blow up subways and busses.

But Cliff May offers a salient counterpoint:

The attacks of 9/11/01 were highly sophisticated and killed thousands. The attacks of 3/11/04 in Madrid were somewhat less sophisticated and killed hundreds. The attacks of 7/705 appear to have been the work of amateurs and killed dozens.

Anyone see a pattern here?

I think Mr. May makes quick work of those pessimists who think that every bombing is evidence that Bush's approach to terrorism isn't working.
