I'm frankly amazed by the calm and poise of Londoners I've seen on television this morning.

We all knew this was coming again -- we just didn't know if it was going to be Auckland, Paris, Berlin, Rome or Chicago.

Turns out this time, the fundamentalists decided to slaughter the cosmopolitans in London.

My thoughts are with the families of those who died, with those who managed to make it out of the tunnels, and with all those in London shaken by the blasts.

Maybe one day, our worst will stop feeding their worst and their worst will stop feeding our worst and us cosmopolitans will no longer feel brave getting on the El, the J line or the Paris Metro.

And just to note, London's thousands of surveillance cameras proved themselves not so helpful in stopping the attacks.

It will, however, be interesting to see what, if any, evidence they provide to investigators.
