British Prime Minister Tony Blair said Thursday the perpetrators of the deadliest peacetime attacks in Britain's history acted "in the name of Islam" and he vowed to "bring the responsible to justice".

"We know that these people act in the name of Islam but we also know that the vast and overwhelming majority of Muslims here and abroad are decent and law abiding people who abhor terrorism every bit as much as we do," Blair said in a televised address to the nation.
