I heard a soundbute from Tony blair this morning saying something about that the attacks had been timed to coincide with the G8 summit. Personally I think they were timed to go with the announcement of the Olympics and that they may have had a similar set up in Paris waiting for the right word.

I could be mistaken but given that most terrorist group want to cause fear and terror what better time to set off a bomb than the morning after everyone went bananas with happiness.

But then I'd never heard of Jamal Islamia until after the Bali Bombings.
