: The Great Eastern Hotel fronts on the Liverpool Station where
: one of the fatal bomb blasts occurred.
The blast occurred in a tunnel, once the tube train had left Liverpool Street station (which is both a tube station and an overground station), going towards Aldgate East. About 100 metres into the tunnel, apparently.
: CNN is now saying that three bombs went off nearly at the same
: moment, namely 8:50 AM British Summertime, while the final
: explosion tore apart the double-decker bus at 9:47 AM.
: It is hard to see how B. Netanyahu could have been the target
: of this planned event, as he was motoring to the Hotel in a
: secure vehicle, not taking the Tube or riding in a
: double-decker bus.
I agree with this, except that it is not completely pinned down that he was motoring to the hotel. It is possible that he was staying there. I have an open mind on this.
: The double-decker bus ( number 30 ), was blown up at Tavistock
: Place ( is this correct ?? ).
No. It occurred at the (northern) corner of Tavistock Square with Upper Woburn Place. It occurred outside Woburn House, which is marked on older maps as London's Jewish Museum because the latter used to be based there, as did the chief rabbi's office; and also outside the headquarters of the British Medical Assocation (a palatial building).
Tavistock Place starts at the other side of Tavistock Square from where the bomb exploded.

The bus was to the right of this when the bomb exploded.
