Norman Geras in the Guardian and (partly at least) on the Guardian:
Within hours of the bombs going off two weeks ago, the voices that one could have predicted began to make themselves heard with their root-causes explanations for the murder and maiming of a random group of tube and bus passengers in London. It was due to Blair, Iraq, illegal war and the rest of it. The first voices, so far as I know, were those of the SWP and George Galloway, but it wasn’t very long – indeed no time at all, taking into account production schedules – before the stuff was spreading like an infestation across the pages of this newspaper, where it has remained.
