I can’t image whoever it was will be on the loose long. They probably already have photos of the guy and are passing them out to law enforcement.
” 60 Liters of gas in the bomb. SIXTY “
About 15 gallons, or three jerry-cans...
That’s quite a bit, certainly, but more of a big fire than a ‘massive explosion’...
If there were indeed propane cannisters there, I’d imagine they were the primary device.....
“once they remove the car why keep the area closed?”
They’ll be searching the scene for evidence.
Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but the timing is interesting. I wonder if the purpose of the bomb was to see what this new guy (Brown) is made of?
The weapons would have been the nails in the car. Israel has had to deal with too many of them.
I agree.
Either the suspect owned the car, borrowed the car, stole the car or rented the car.
Whatever it is, info should have been forthcoming pretty darn quick at least on the car ownership.
Of course, that is, if the plates and the VIN match...
A whole lot of America has been ostrichized.
The “War is not the answer” bumperstickers are ubiquitous.
15 gallons- obviously not intended to blow up London- but loaded with nails it would have killed and maimed many people.
It’s just off Picaddilly, on Haymarket. As far as I recall, most other premises immediately around it (within that block) are closed at that hour.
Tiger Tiger has a huge glass wall on the side that faces the main street. The main bar would have been closest, but it has 3 levels (one with a dancefloor in the basement) and the most crowded area is on the main floor on the far end away from the street.
Welcome to the real world, Gordon Brown. All your talk of education and health care last Sunday seems so long ago.
Trying to watch FNC and they go to Geraldo “The Fake”, to ask his thoughts. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are trying their best to promte him. Not a chance on my tv.
Switch to PMSNBC.... No sound. CNN, keeps getting better.
I wonder if the driver wanted to do a Bali Bombin or drive the car into the glass plate window , and accidentially hit the garbage bins. The ambulance driver said that the car was smoking from the inside.
Thank you for all your work on this thread. I can’t read it all now, but will catch up when I can. Frightening, truly.
You’re very welcome cgk.
looks like the target was a popular nightclub
Yep, it’s looking that way.
No. Here in America, politicians and the media are afraid to call the enemy by its name...
Sugar 'n' Spice...
