Not necessarily. As one freeper pointed out earlier--if one thing was wrong with a batch of explosives made at the same time then they would all be bad. The eyewitness said the man wearing the backpack looked real distraught(no virgins appearing). I think it was extremely fortunate for the Brits that the explosive might have been defective--but of course we are all guessing at this point...

it is either:

1. bad explosives
2. poor design
3. explosives "tampered"with by good guys to track bad guys

in any case, there will be at least one more fatality from this incident

the bomb maker!
