London has been hit with another terror attack, this time on the parsons green subway with a bucket bomb.
The attack left 29 injured and Isis claiming responsibility.
Update 1
President Donald Trump has tweeted out his deepest sympathy.
No suspects yet.
U.K. Has raised threat level to critical, and soldiers are now planned for patrolling key sites.

Even dud bomb is enough to cause whatever it was meant to cause.

It's not a popular opinion, but I'm holding the theory that this was the IRA (Irish Republican Army). A bucket bomb in Britain would fit their M.O.

ISIS has claimed responsibility.

ISIS claims responsibility for everything because they want countries pissed at them. So, for any terror attack, if no one steps forward ISIS nabs the credit.
It's likely to be ISIS. It wouldn't shock me if it was ISIS. It just happens to fit the IRA's style too.

Oh, and by the way, this is a picture of the bomb when the cops found it.

Still, I don't know if it's them. If we knew who the suspect was that may help us.

Well, that's a different problem. That will likely be found out once the Brits manage to arrest some suspects.
A few news sources I follow are now saying an eighteen year old was arrested in Dover in connection to the bombing and that's he'll be sent to South London for questioning. That's pretty much all we have to go on right now.

NEWS UPDATE
British police have raided the home of some foster carers in search of the bomb factory, neighbors doubt that the 88 and 71 year old couple are the terrorists.

They don't even check who lives at the addresses they raid?

I think refusing to investigate based on the occupants isnt a good idea..

Were it to get out that the police wouldnt raid elderly people's homes its likely we'd find terrorists positioning their factories in those homes. Same with young children.
