“Explosion in Islamic school basement ruled accidental”

The vest went off prematurely?

I am NOT going to say “a faulty detonator”— buildings have been know to go “boom” for other reasons, including natural gas.

More than a week after and all we have was that it was “faulty equipment”. And they still haven’t talked to a maintenance worker, so he can scrub all the chemical explosive out of his hair and hands and clean out his home chemical cache before hand?

How stupid can they get? Was this a bomb making factory or not?

*************************************

The FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were contacted by investigators looking into the explosion because the West Onondaga Street school is considered a place of worship.

But now investigators believe a piece of faulty equipment triggered the explosion. Forensic tests are being performed on items from the basement. Investigators are trying to interview the building’s maintenance worker, Heffernan said.

The students resumed school Wednesday at a mosque near Onondaga Community College, said Ashraf Attia, a business professor at the State University of Oswego who serves on Ihsan’s board of directors.

Attia said the school is working with its insurance company to repair the building in Syracuse. The explosion caused asbestos to get into the air, Heffernan said.

“We don’t have a clear picture yet,” Attia said. “We’re working to bring it back to where it was.”

Of course it was accidental.

It was intended to go off in the synagogue down the street.

They were hoping it was an ANTI Islam attack, but it was just a fundamental flaw in a “worship mat”.

The bomb making supplies brought in for next week's class must have spontaneously combusted.

There’s hardly a school anywhere that that hasn’t happened to. What’s the big deal?

I wonder why people hear “explosion” and “death cult” and immediately think “terrorism.”

They could have been doing a science project: “Make Bomb Vest - Watch Jews and Christians Fly in the Air” and there was an accident.

“A device in the basement”?

Wouldn’t they say “furnace,” or “hot water heater,” if it was something simple like that? This isn’t rocket science—I don’t think.

Not that reporters these days can get the 5 W’s correct even in perfectly innocent stories.

Duh! Of course it was accidental. They intended for it to go off in the Carrier Dome.

This happened in our country. Will public schools with large numbers of Islamic students & staff (it could happen in a few) have explosives hidden in their basements?
