"...improvised explosive device ..." Eight syllables to say "bomb".

But bomb doesn't evoke images of Muslims and further necessitate protection from Big Sis.

I read the article ... technically, a pipe bomb is an IED.
Technically.
It's hardly in the same category as the nasty devices that the bad guys in jihadistan build.

There’s lots of ‘ordinance’ over there to make these nasty things with. Not so much layin’ around in the US that isn’t accounted.

I recall a recent FR article about the growing threat of IED’s in the U.S... Nothing new about IEDs. They are known as 'car bombs' or simply 'bombs.'
Organized, and also unorganized, crime has been putting them to use for quite a number of decades.

There will be more and more news about domestic IEDs.
There will then be new measures, new devices, and new TSA presences all over the place implemented by Big Sis to keep us safe. With all the IED news, becoming even more of a police state will seem like the prudent thing to do.
The IED news is just more false flag stuff to justify the takeover.

I recall a recent FR article about the growing threat of IED’s in the U.S... ... which is EXHIBIT A in the evidence that this is a false-flag operation, probably done by the ATF. First, they have the lapdog media write an article about the dangers of something, then they carry out an terrorist operation designed to encourage the sentiment of "oh, big government, please, take more power and protect us sheep from the scary thing!"
I think we will see much more of this as we approach the election.
