Multiple threads reporting, hard to get hard numbers. First heads-up from
TVC News Nigeria Live, an interesting source in itself... but not anything as entertaining as
INDIA TODAY, now reporting on a "bomb scare at the Olympics."

When I lived in Istanbul in the 50s I remember that whenever there was an earth tremor a couple of apartment buildings would collapse somewhere in the city. My daddy explained that there was no steel in the concrete. They just poured it into the molds with no reinforcement at all.

Heck of a lot of coincidence going on. If I were a cynic, I’d wonder if for ISIS their Olympic event is “terrorist bombings that seem like something else”.

LOL, I saw that as well.
But maybe they’re planning to publish a study in six months or so about where possible victims might be located?
