... although others could have been hurt touching, picking up, or opening a package.

From the pictures I have seen, only by dropping it on their foot and getting a bruise.

“but what explosive was used”

There is no explosives..the one at CNN had nothing but powder in it. Every bomb expert, military or otherwise, that has looked at these so called bombs say they are a joke...no danger to anyone; also, they would never allow the pictures of the items to be shown at this early date. It’s a hoax and they were sent to all the right people, knowing they would hammer President Trump on it.

And if the falseflagger was caught, Pres. Trump could beimpeached by a Democrat congress and the perp later pardoned by a Democrat President ushered in after Mike Pence is impeached.

The only battery shown is the watch battery for the clock

I would wonder if it has the amps to cause the steel wool to glow to ignite the powder

This is an x-ray of one of the devices. I'm not too knowledgeable about these kinds of things, but it looks like the wires just go in and out of the pipe, and are not even connected to the timer. Is it even possible this thing could detonate?

Note the casing and end-caps do not appear to be made of metal. Otherwise the x-ray would show the sides and endcaps as dark as the wires.

If the devise has gunpowder inside, it would be closer to a "flash-bang" than a deadly devise, given the little information available.

When the deep state pulls one of their clown acts like this, they typically give up an operative who does exactly what Ben did. It’s all about momemtum and public opinion. Ben must have a little birdy whispering in his ear.

One of them seems to connect to the timer for sure, the other could be connected, and just the perspective of the x-ray makes it look like it goes back into the device. They certainly seemed to be connected to the “timer” from the photos that were posted.

What is interesting is that inside the device, they are not connected to a blasting cap or anything like that. It just looks like they are connected to either end of a coil of wires. I suppose if those wires were a resister like the tungsten filaments in light bulbs they could possibly generate enough heat to light off a low order explosive like black powder, but I don’t think it would be very reliable.

Which is why many of the crimes for conspiracy must result in executions that forever remove the threat

Even though these fakes may be a false flag, never under estimate what might follow. Yes what we have seen has been a joke, what we don’t know is if there is something that follows after people have let their guard down.

"It was at the Chicago home of [Bill] Ayers and [Bernardine] Dohrn that Obama, then an up-and-coming 'community organizer,' had his political coming out party in 1995. Not content with this rite of passage in Lefty World — where unrepentant terrorists are regarded as progressive luminaries, still working 'only to educate' — both Obamas tended to the relationship with the Ayers."

"As a gesture of solidarity, the Vietnamese who [Bernardine] Dohrn met in Budapest presented her with a ring made from an American aircraft shot down over North Vietnam. Bill Ayers would receive a similar ring while meeting with Vietnamese communists in Toronto. He later recalled being so moved by the gesture that he 'left the room to cry.' "

Hillary Clinton, Eric Holder Still Blocking the Truth [FALN Terrorists]

By Joseph F. Connor
June 4, 2013

excerpt...

On August 11, 1999, President Bill Clinton offered clemency to 16 unrepentant members of the Puerto Rican terrorist group FALN (Armed Forces for National Liberation).

The FALN carried out a reign of terror in America from 1974 through 1983, conducting 114 bombings including the January 24, 1975 lunchtime attack of New York’s historic Fraunces Tavern that killed four innocent people. Among the victims was my 33 year-old father, Frank Connor.

In 1981, the majority of the FALN terrorists were arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced in Chicago Federal Court to 50 to 70 year prison terms for crimes including seditious conspiracy, bomb making, conspiracy to commit armed robbery, and weapons possession.

Prior to the clemency offers, supporters of the release received a reported nine meetings with White House and Justice Department officials, while victims and their families were ignored.

Incredibly, the FALN terrorists never requested clemency themselves. Instead, a “support committee” requested clemency on their behalf.

Inexplicably, the Justice Department conducted the standard investigation, which resulted in Pardon Attorney Margaret Love not recommending the terrorists’ release. However, Eric Holder, then Deputy Attorney General, fired Love and compelled her replacement, Roger Adams, to draft a neutral “options” memo which provided President Clinton the rationale he needed to offer their releases. Fourteen of the sixteen terrorists eventually accepted clemency and left prison on September 10, 1999. ..."

In 1999, Hillary was planning for her 2000 U.S. Senate run. Offering clemency to these individuals was designed to help her gain footing with New York’s Puerto Rican population of 3.5 million people. ..."

Why have they not put that info out? Because they are partisan hacks, that's why.

Or they are still investigating and will report when they are done. I have no idea if the FBI can be trusted on this. I do know that for Clinton and Trump they were corrupt to the core, with no objective professionals at all. But perhaps they can improve under Trump.

BOTH OBAMA AND OSAMA HAD
FRIENDS WHO BOMBED THE PENTAGON

_________________________________________________________

From HumanEvents.com, April 29, 2008:
"By all accounts, he [Obama friend and associate, Bill Ayers] was a ferocious, violent, revolutionary Marxist in his halcyon days as a Weatherman leader. He and his Weatherman bombers were enamored of Ho Chi Minh, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Mao Tse-tung -- indeed, all the murderous heroes on the Left. Referring to the Weatherman members in August 1969, he said (according to the FBI): 'We're revolutionary Communists.'

He got off on the group's multiple explosions, too, and discusses them rather lovingly in his memoir.

Ideal Bombing Weather:
'Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon,' he writes (although he concedes it was really a group effort). 'The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.' (p. 256 in the 2003 edition.)

BOTH OBAMA AND OSAMA HAD
FRIENDS WHO WANTED TO BOMB FORT DIX

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
March 6, 1970: "three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse while attempting to build a powerful bomb they had intended to plant at a social dance in Fort Dix, New Jersey -- an event that was to be attended by U.S. Army soldiers. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plot been successfully executed."
http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=6808
_____________________________________

"The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer's dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
The bomb was packed with nails to inflict maximum casualties upon detonation."

"The bomb preparations have been pointed out by critics of the claim that the Weatherman group did not try to take lives with its bombings.

Harvey Klehr, the Andrew W. Mellon professor of politics and history at Emory University in Atlanta, said in 2003:

"The only reason they were not guilty of mass murder is mere incompetence. I don't know what sort of defense that is."[2]"

2007 Fort Dix attack plot

A group of six radical Islamist[1] men, allegedly plotting to stage an attack on the Fort Dix military base in New Jersey, United States, were arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on May 7, 2007. They were subsequently charged with planning an attack against U.S. soldiers. The alleged aim of the six men was said to be to "kill as many soldiers as possible".[2] Their trial began on October 20, 2008. [3]

Opening arguments were presented on October 20, 2008.
Assistant U.S. Attorney William Fitzpatrick said the defendants were inspired by jihad saying "Their motive was to defend Islam. Their inspiration was Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.
