I usually find that demos are a bit closer to the police estimate of numbers than the organisers’ estimate. But Saturday’s demo against the attack on Lebanon was really big – I was speaking over an hour into the rally, and I could see the march still pouring in.

If I understand the British system, the police don't put out many details about such cases as the alleged bombers for quite some time. In the US, of course, information flows like a flood, well before serious evidence is accumulated.
Thus, I don't expect many specifics very soon.
I do share the skepticism, given the mistakes the police have made of late, but, will be patient.
One line in the blog was odd. There have been daily stories on Iraq in newspapers, on the radio and television, and on the Web. So, I don't know why Craig wonders why there has been none.
