That there needs to be a public inquiry into the worst bombings in the UK since WW2 strikes me as bloody obvious - we need to know where things went wrong and things went right, why young British Muslims feel alienated enough to plan terrorist outrages against their own countrymen, what the bomber's motivation was (which if you ask me is why we aren't getting one, since everyone except Tony Blair puts Iraq on the list of reasons*) and have a proper look at whether the three anti-terror Acts passed since 2001 have had the slightest effect on the country's ability to stop terrorist attacks or merely given little Hitlers all over the country licence to annoy people.
* We do know that Sidique Khan started getting into radical Islam shortly *after* the invasion of Iraq - before that he seems to have been a highly creditable individual who did a lot for his community. I think we need to know why he changed.

Iraq is not a good enough excuse for what happened, i know you didnt say that though. I do not think it was really the reason either, this people have been brainwashed into killing by evil people. Iraq may have made that brainwashing possible for some but there would still be a lot of people willing to commit these acts.
I do not see the point of a public inquiry into the actual bombings, it happened, the people who did it are mostly dead and we know what happened?
Also this guy said the anger of the family was at the government and not the bombers. If you were a government minister and someone came in and said such stuff to you, you would not be insulted?
