    Interesting that you think it might be terrorist related.

    I doubt it is, fires happen all the time

    It's not terrorist related and no reports of any injuries. It's just a big fire.

    That's just a fire, explosions don't really emit much smoke as they tend to dissipate their fuel over a large area.

    Hate to break it to you but jumping to the conclusion that terrorists were involved is more "normal" than "controversial".

    Yeah, I just got an email from my friend about it. She's a trader and because initially they thought it was a terrorist attack they all went running to their desks, thinking the markets were about to go mad. Tis all good though now, they're pretty sure it's just a big fire.

    Stratford you say? ZOMFG, they're hitting the Olympics 5 years early, just when we'd least expect it.

    I just hope whoever gets the 2018 World Cup starts clamping down on security.

    It was probably Iran, or some dodgy African oil rich nation. Time to free them.

    Yep, it was terrorist related, they ran out of cemtex and now they're using zippo lighters instead, now you know why you aren't allowed them on a plane anymore
