In London, England 37(current count) died, and 700 people were injured as a result of an al-Qaida attack on subways and double-decker bus. I'm greatly shaken by this over seas attack, not only because human life is suffering, but because this attack was made on my country. As I watched the news, the event grabed and changed me. I, in a heart beat, would complain about America(Which is my current ressident). I would openly state that I intend to move to England, as my allegance is with them. But I realized that I am immature. I watched, thinking: "Why do I act this way? I will keep my beliefs, but why must I always voice them? Why must I keep drilling into the imperfections of this America?"

No, all countries have had their shamefull events. America pushed away the Native People. The UK took India. Germany invaded Poland. Yet people remain loyal to each. I will remain loyal to the UK, but I refuse to spit on America. I know the UK has had their problems too. My opinion is mine. However, today the way I express it has changed. I pray for those who lost their family memebers, and those who are injured. God Bless the UK.
