The police and security services have managed to track down those responsible for the attacks in London and it appears that they were four young men from the Leeds area all of whom died in the resultant explosions.
It is not the result that people were expecting. It was theorized that the attackers may have been outsiders or perhaps Britons that had trained in Afghanistan and it was thought that they had planted the bombs and then left as the Madrid bombers did so that they could attack again in future.
But now we know that it was four seemingly normal young men who had somehow become radicalized in this country to the point of becoming suicide bombers. Questions are sure to be asked about how this came to be. It’s quite likely that there was some outside influence on them, who organised them and supplied them with the explosive material, but perhaps we are deluding ourselves about this just because we cannot understand how these four men could do what they did.
