NO.

Latest news it that it was remote control gas car starters.

Indeed. Very serious persistent fact.

Well, if that's what Eric Holder and the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms claim, then it must be true.

LMBO!

You are partially correct, I heard that the bomb was built using remote control parts, but what I also heard last night on AC360 the method of detonation is still in question and that a cell still could have been used.

No.

From the photos I saw, it looked like common R/C model controllers were used.

Whatever the mechanism, as long as no governemnt employees were hurt, 0bama and the Democrats and the liberal media don’t have a problem with exploiting it to advance their political ends.

Last official word I heard was that toy radio control xmitters and receivers were used. However, I expect this version to be subject to change as have most other “facts” in this case.

Yeah... because all Radio Control Cars and Planes are started by dialing them with your cell phone. (/s)

Even the two damaged circuit boards found are a ruse by the bombers to confuse the investigators.

The ‘fireworks’ these two used are what they called ‘mortar shells’ for an ‘artillery cannon’. They have a LONG FUSE on them, ready to USE. All they had to do was light it, close the pressure cooker, and walk away.

Or use a model rocket spark ignitor hooked to a relay. Only needs about 3v to set ‘em off.

high pucker factor involved in moving a bomb around under those conditions ~ some kid fires up his little plastic race car and KERBOOM.

That could well explain why the perps did that march step ~ not that they were marching in unison, but they had the same highly agitated sphincter region!

Did you catch the photo sequence where the white “chick” in sunglasses and dark coat casually dropped her big purse on top of the trash bag/bomb and then walked away and left it

detonator?

Bomber $3

I was at the gym and it was on tv so I watched it. Actually it wasn’t too bad to be honest. I know he is a liberal but I can stand him enough unlike Piers.

Here is a picture of them so you can see what I mean. I have used these and they are very powerful. Wrap them with nails, bb's and duct tape and you have a dangerous anti-personnel bomb.

The suspects bought TWO of these packages

Include a circuit interrupter for a safety switch. Just like in model rocketry.

mortar fireworks ~ not military grade mortar rounds.

Although they could just light the fuse and walk away, this is not all that easy to get away with in a crowd.

Remote electrical detonation is the way to go.

If they'd used modern electric pressure cookers the timing system would have allowed them to set up about 24 hours in advance of the event!

2.4Ghz RC stuff would have a up to 1/2 mile range and would be cheaper than a phone and un traceable. 2.4gh RX’s are $5, ESC’s to ignite a fuse are $6, TX’s are $15...and this is for GOOD stuff.

These guys would have to be complete idiots to use a cell phone with this small of a bomb. Maybe with an OKC sized bomb.
