No they don't.

Congratulations on winning the Olympics eh ?

Civilians all.
Wonder who did it. And if it's to do with the G8 or the Middle East. Probably not the Olympics; something like this would have taken long term planning.

buses exploded about an hour later, so people had time to rush off tube onto buses first...
