The old war on terror

Just so you know, this is the kind of thing that we in the UK have had to deal with for decades. Terrorism is not new to us.

A bomb has been defused outside a pub in north Belfast.

It was found in York Road at about 0230 GMT on Thursday after a telephone warning.

Army bomb experts carried out a controlled explosion on the device.

A number of items were taken away for examination.

By the way, any visiting tourists who wonder why there is such a shortage of bins (trash cans) on our London transport system it's because that's where terrorists used to hide their bombs. We thought it best to remove them.
