July 7, 2005 — U.S. authorities tell ABC News that British police have recovered two unexploded bombs from the scene of the terror attacks in London.

In addition, British investigators say that parts of timing devices have been recovered from the blast scene that would have been used to detonate an explosive device. This could provide evidence that would help determine who was behind the attacks, sources told ABC News.

This very thing happened with our cell phones when we had the Yucaipa earthquake a few weeks ago. Cell service just quit. Expect this to happen when emergencies occur. The emergency personnel commandeer the phone lines for emergency use. Mr. C4E and I carry good old CB radios. With short distance they work great.

Maybe "suicide bomber"?

Suicide bomber is no longer politically correct comrade.

If a homicide bomber kills only himself but destroys a building is he a failed homicide bomber or is it ok to call him a suicide bomber at that point. I've wondered if a bomber who kills both himself and somebody else isn't a "homicide/suicide bomber". And what if he kills some animals with his bomb? What if he injures people but doesn't kill them, would he be an "assault and battery bomber"? I just don't know any more.

The attacks were really staggered: 8.51-8.56-9.17-9.47. I almost wonder if the first guy wasn't given a time, and then the others were told to pick out the best target and go.

The bus bombing seems odd, like the terrorist was thwarted somehow in detonating on a train, so the bus became a secondary target.

This bombing shows a greatly weakened AlQ. It's quite a drop from commandeering airline planes and crashing them into the WTC and the Pentagon. One wonders what they are planning for the US next.

BTW does anyone know if the BBC used their new policy of delaying "disturbing images" in case of a 9-11 attack? This was announced fairly recently.
Wonder if they used that today?

Politically correct?? LOL! My use of the word 'homicide' had to do with reality, not anything PC. As a matter of fact, it is PC to call them suicides, just like it is PC to call terrorists 'insurgents.'

If a man strapped with bombs killed innocent people on that bus, it was not just a suicide. It was murder. Spade = Spade

I have a feeling if you checked the times of the planes on 9-11, you'll find similar timing.

I`m just getting caught up on this now, I didn`t have time at work to listen to it all. Was it a suicide bomber on the bus or just bombs planted? I tell you, to be honest, the first thing that popped into my head when I heard about these bombings was the G8 protesters did it, not Al-Qaeda. It`s just in my mind, they`ve reached a point that they`re just as radical. If they find some connection to them, or Al-Qaeda acting in concert with these liberals mutts, they are through. They`ll be protesting in the sea from now on. I never forgot that liberal protest in Washington a few years back where they found Al-Qaeda recruiters protesting right along side the likes of people like Martin Sheen and Susan Sarandon. Screw these bastards. They protest everything except Al-Qaeda which to me says it all.

Gee, have not heard a word from the liberal left.

I hope that eventually the ignorant folks on the left will finally wake up and understand that these savage assholes really do want to kill us, all of us.

Cool, thanks! I thought Amazon's price was a bit steep and it was keeping me from getting it. Now maybe I will. Cheers.

Planes on 9/11, sure, but that's incredibly complex. I think Madrid is the more apt. comparison for this attack--in Madrid the bombs were for all intents and purposes simultaneous.

Perhaps it is better to let them chatter on known, easily accessible sites. :^)
