German police have ruled out blackmail as the reason why two bombs were left on trains on 31 July - and now believe it was a failed terror attack. The bombs were in identical black cases on trains in Dortmund and Koblenz. 
They had been timed to explode 10 minutes before the trains arrived, said federal crime chief Joerg Ziercke. 
"We are now working on the basis that this was the work of a terrorist group... and was an attempt to kill a large number of people," he said. 
Police want to trace two men seen on CCTV wheeling cases at Cologne station. 
Initial suggestions that the bombs may have been an attempt to blackmail a train company had been ruled out, Mr Ziercke said.

    After the Israeli boondoggle, methinks the whole world's muslims are going to want to crank up their cells.

    Bush had the CIA plant the faulty bombs so as to keep the world gripped in "fear" and divert world attention from his quagmire in Iraq.

    I bet you a million zillion eleventy-trillion dollars it wasn't an Islamic.No dice. The bank only showed you having Nine-hundred-ninety-nine thousand zillion and eleventy-trillion in your account. You think I am so stupid as to get rooked out of a thousand zillion trillion dollars? But it could be a conspiracy by the German Jewish bankers to make people mad at the islamic bombing animals.....

    Hummm, Authorities said "They warn that the man could still be at large"
  
 Is that opposed to having been captured, but they are not aware of whether he has been or not. Inspector Clouseau on the case.
