London Bombings overheard comment

This is a straight overheard comment.
I was cruising in a predominantely US passenger {US} liner when the atrocity occurred.
Obviously there were lots of discussions, but one comment on a table behind me was 'Well that'll hopefuly finally get the Brits angry' [or words to that effect].
This one I cant understand- do Brits come across in the States as 'stiff upper lip', 'wimps' or what?
We've been having terrorist atrocities in the UK for years, partly financed by US donations, so what are they getting at ?
Ok- off my soapbox now and back to straight 'reports' from now on
