I want to know how the crew discovered it in London. I’m guessing it was in a sealed container, so how would they know?
Absolutely.

All of the planes had taken off from Yemen according to Fox News.

A UPS spokesperson released a statement saying, “There are two UPS planes with “questionable shipments” at Philadelphia Airport and one plane with a “questionable shipment’ at Newark airport. We are working with authorities in this investigation.”
A UPS truck in Queens was also being swept for a possible device. There was believed to be law enforcement activity in Brooklyn associated with the investigation but it was unclear how it was related.

It will be interesting to see when and how he speaks on this, if it is to have some impact on elections.
Of course, I think he IS due to nauseate us
yet again to speak about some blather today,
so .. perfect opportunity.
UPS & FDX (FedEx) down slightly on the NYSE....
Obviously it entails the election. This doesn't just happen two days before such an extraordinary election that is hampering the globalist agenda.
Do not be fooled into believing this is solely the work of the terror groups.
Hmmmmmmm.....
Fox News confirming that some radiological component was found to one of the bombs.
Heaven help us. This is Obama’s fault. We didn’t have all these close calls while Bush was president and the adults were in charge.
Yesterday was Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s birthday, FYI.
Depending on the radiological isotope, a pilot could have touched the metal device and "burned" him radiologically, only to become violently ill within a couple of hours, unexpectedly. Sure sign of severe >500 rad exposure (2-6 Grey?).
October surprise?
“Maybe, but would a terrorist attack really rally the voting public around the pathetically weak-on-terrorism President and his Democrat party?”
I believe if this would happen the gun cabinets of the public would be opened. This would be be the final straw.
Call Jaun....Should we be a lttle more watchful or not? Naw...don’t worry...Obie said we can take it. B******
FNC:
NO radiological components found.
Now Maine? It sure sounds like... They are ceasing a terrorist attack I mean a “Overseas Contingency Operation”
In Pennsylvania? Gotta be Amish terrorists.
Some official quickly killed that report.
Now FN saying that no radiological component found..unringing the bell. WTH? Someone giving Fox false info to discredit them? I smell a rat riding on a terrorist.
Is O on the golf course or some where talking about a car in a ditch ahhhh ummmmm look here now ahhhhh um.
Hmmmmm....mass confusion...that’s certainly reassuring.(eye roll)
