Car bomb would have caused huge fireball

Thanks... the reason why I wanted to know was I still think it odd they would attack Tiger Tiger on a Thursday night, and not a Friday or Sat night when they are usually packed (see my comments in this thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1858162/posts).

The exact circumstances of the calls would give us a clearer picture of the plot - if they screwed up getting multiple assets (some of which may still be out there) into place last night for a more devastating Friday night attack.

Got it.

Not the stuff from the store.

This would have been truly catastrophic had it went off.

Thank goodness for bad phone service ! (Assuming the call didn't get through)

[Shelayne]

Absolutely.

Take a look at the picture on the link. I do not know how to post pictures or graphics, or I would have here. If this is one of the perps, he has that jihadi aura, if you will.

Not that I’m profiling, mind you.

Reportedly, there’s a ‘crystal clear video pic’ of the perp in the Mercedes. Has anyone found it?

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

I would guess a liquid oxidizer like H₂O₂ would work best with a liquid fuel like kerosene, diesel, etc. Flour, of all the things ? I guess the Jihadists have studied the Anarchists Cookbook more thoroughly than anyone else.

This just can’t be. Pelosi, Feinstein, Reid, Kerry, Murtha, Schumer, and the rest of the nutjobs don’t believe there are terrorists in the world.

Yes! Undoubtedly, disgruntled white male Christians and frustrated homeschoolers posing as "Islamic Terrorists", who are in actuality peace-loving messengers of the Will of Allah.

Real students of the ROP would never mistake one for the other! Which, quite obviously, is what those on the list you provided, must be!

CA....

True, Thursday would not be the optimum time for an attack.

That area is extremely congested. They may have positioned the car early to insure their desired location and then something alarmed them they were being discovered, so they tried to set it off earlier than planned.

Or perhaps the report was erroneous. We should know more soon.

Maybe they were worried about missing Friday Prayers!! I’m a bit uneasy about all this,since my son works at the US Embassy!

Once proud England is nothing but an Islamic sh*thole . The few British left are little lap dogs and kiss the feet of their Islamic masters. England is long lost my friend.

[DBrow]

Thanks! But...

Look at #8, OpusatFR has it nailed- the “bomb” may not have been even intended to explode!

The perps (not the bozork driving the car, the planners) may have figured that having the bomb NOT go off would have more serious effect on the target (GB).

Re: This can only mean one thing. Brits and Aussies will have to give up their grills, and Americans will be required (initially) to register them with the State Police in their respective jurisdictions.

Over... my dead body!

I'm 100%... behind ya, Hank!

I knew I shouldn't have gone to the head... You beat me by seconds!
