"The move to lift the ban followed criticism from police, politicians and
tourism officials in the capital. "
Shame they didn't have the balls to suggest it themselves...

"US military London ban under review
A US decision to ban all American servicemen and women from entering
London
following last week's terror attacks is being "urgently reviewed",
Defence
Secretary John Reid said.
Around 10,000 personnel from the US Air Force based at two RAF stations
in
Suffolk were given the order after the bombs brought the capital to a
standstill on Thursday.
The directive was considered by the US authorities to be the most
effective
measure to protect their troops.
But Mr Reid said that decision was being reconsidered and he insisted
the US
government had offered its full support.
"You will not be surprised to know that my people have been in touch
already
with the American embassy," he told GMTV.
"I understand this is being urgently reviewed. It was a local decision
taken
locally.
"It was a temporary measure in the immediate aftermath of last
Thursday's
bombings and this statement was made last Friday."
Mr Reid said that - at that stage - no one knew the size of the attack
or
the potential damage caused.
But in a defence of the US, he said: "From the first moments of this,
the
Americans have been unstinting in their support."
The Defence Secretary said help had been offered from the FBI and
numerous
other security agencies. US defence secretary Donald Rumsfeld rang up
immediately after the attacks to see if the US could assist, he added."

Marburg outbreak claims 253 lives in Angola
What's your point, bitchtits? Do you think it was weaponised Marburg
manufactured by Saddam from his gaol cell?
''gaol cell?''
That is not a typo :)
Nope, it's the correct spelling. As you might have known if your
brainstem
had developed into an actual brain.
