A pathetic bomb and pathetic attempt. This may be a warning or a message. Next time may be a real propane bomb with a real trigger such as C4 or dynamite

If this bomb went off Muslims world wide would have been joyous and titillated at liquored up Britons being mass murdered at a decadent nightclub

Inside officers discovered a “significant quantity” of petrol, nails and gas cylinders. They used a remote-controlled device to check the vehicle before bomb squad officers made it safe.

If the bomb had exploded, police said that the shrapnel would have killed or injured anyone within a wide area. The bomb itself could have caused a fireball as big as a house followed by a large shock wave.

Terror groups like al-Qaeda are believed to have been planning attacks on nightclubs, which are considered by Islamic fundamentalists to be symbols of Western decadence.

Tiger Tiger is a combined bar, restaurant and nightclub, part of a wider national chain, that opens from midday until the early hours of the morning. It has several floors, and is believed to have a capacity of over 1,000 - although staff said that only around 650 were in the club at the time of the incident. Last night was scheduled to be ‘ladies’ night’ at the club, complete with female DJ.

We can assume that the Brits are setting up a different Security mode....and the bad guys are watching. That’s what they did with the Kobar (sp) Towers. A week later...kaboom. So a repeat July 7th date is looking good.

I suggest you study up on explosives.

Now, with this outcome, there will be sadness and disappointment in Mosques around the globe.

Sarcasm? pathetic bomb ?

Hardly! also the psychological factor to terrorize added to the mix whether this explosive device went off or not.

Pardon me, your ignorance is showing.

And it one of the people you treasure most in the world had been killed, I doubt you would have found it pathetic at all.

Sorry. Pathetic is not a good description. But the driver was an idiot. His idiocy tipped off the authorities about the bomb. Professional operators don’t do this

The driver practically yelled out : THIS IS A CAR BOMB!!!
