If the explosives were mixed in one batch, the batch could have been bad. Detonators are typically like blanks used in starter pistols to provide concussion that sets off the big explosive.

If the batch was bad, none of the explosives would go off, or would be weak at best (strictly from a technical standpoint, you understand).

Could this "amateur" work be that of the anarchists? I can't believe that AQ would screw up their bombmaking like this.


I can believe that groups of young muslims would attempt copy-cat attacks without the benefit of skilled bomb making ability...maybe that's what happened. I also don't believe any other non-muslim group would do anything that would associate themselves with the type of attack perpetrated on 7/7.

The specialists carry guns but the regular cops aren't issued with them.

Just curious, what's the difference between a regular cop and a specialist?

I read on another thread that a lot of them do, but it's not public knowledge.

Looks like the terrorists are botching their bombs.

BBC: Detonators found on three packages, but no real explosions.

Very valuable forensic information on the construction etc will be revealed.

THis sounds awfully amateur....4 explosions, no injuries?

Yeah, am wondering if it might be a copycat attack, such as by skinheads trying to stir up more rage against muslims. Nailbombs aren't sophisticated. OTOH, 4 at near once takes a bit of coordination, and the Palestinian terror filth is quite fond of nail bombs. Could be anybody, but of course odds would suggest Islamifascist terrorists.

My condolences. Well, so much for improved security. Please thank Livingstone, his voters, and his cohorts in your government and SCHOOLS who have disarmed you, made multi culturalism the law of the land, while destroying the pride and dignity of your heritage, and welcomed this muslim trash into your country.

I'm waiting for it to start here, but we have a place for such people and the common people have the means to deliver.

"The man who was holding the rucksack looked extremely dismayed.

I hope someone had the presence of mind to grab him for the cops.

If they get the explosives intact that would be a big win for tracing to the source.
