it is if they have a very real reason to believe he was another suicide bomber. whether they had we will have to see but from what i gather, the guy had been under survielance and they were following him to see who he met up with or where he went (so there's a good chance he's related to the recent attacks in some way - the security services don't put you under survielance just for being asian), unfortunatly he decided to enter the underground wearing a heavy coat on a summers day and when he was told to stop he ran. i would bet he's linked to all this and if so, good riddance. if he's not guilty of anything then it's a shame but there's not a person in europe let alone london who isn't aware of what's currently going on there at the moment. so to run from armed police in london at the moment let alone on the underground is crazy. but just because he wasn't one of the bombers doesn't mean he isn't linked in some way.
btw. i can't believe the irony of an israeli talking about 1 (only possibly) innocent person being shot when 5 year old children and aid workers are shot in israel almost daily.
