The phones were meant to set off blasts when they were called, but the devices failed...."Akhmed, did you charge the phones?!! It was your job to charge the phones!!"

What were they thinking? The picked from the pictures I saw and S class Mercedes, a car built like a tank. I know because I have basically the two door version (SL) and it still weighs in excess of over two tons.
The should have used a Mini. Anyone remember that controversial VW commercial where the suicide bomber sets off the bomb the and VW contains it; it was hilarious and guess who objected?

My bet is they forgot to take the regulator valves off the propane tanks and then with the one that did catch fire they just opened it up which would be equivalent to setting the high flame on a BBQ grill.

I guess this puts the complaints about “dropped calls” and cellular unreliability into proper perspective, eh?

What I would like know, is what time the calls were made to the cellphones they recovered - if they were before or after the vehicles were ditched.
A simple 2 missed calls etc on the displays can be misinterpreted... they could have, and should have, tested the receiving phones before their triggering devices went live, and may not have bothered to clear the test calls.

THE attempted London car bombings were meant to be detonated by calls to mobile phones in the two vehicles, but failed for technical reasons, the Evening Standard reported today. The calls made on the phones allowed police to trace those behind the failed attacks last FridayFAIL

Those cheap cell phones bought at a distress sale didn’t work.
Thank God.
Now that hospital in Scotland needs to be searched to see if any phone triggered bombs are hidden in the hospital.

I fully expect some leftie to write an article in which he tells the terrorists what went wrong and what they have to do next time to make sure that the bombs work.

It was allah's will.
It is also allah's will that the bombers suffer a terrifying plunge head first off Big Ben's tower.
So let it be written, so let it be done.

The phones were meant to set off blasts when they were called, but the devices failed to detonate the mixture of gas canisters and nails in the two Mercedes cars parked in London's entertainment district. Technical reasons like: The bombs had been disconnected from the phones *before* the calls were made?
It was my understanding that the first bomb was discovered because vapor was seen coming from the vehicle, and the "detonator", ie the phone, was pulled before the call came in. The second car was located by it's connection to the first, and had been towed for being illegally parked. Unless the facts have changed since I read all that yesterday.
