If I ever doubted there was some sort of nationwide control over media coverage, those doubts have vanished in light of what I am witnessing in this case.

Playing Devil's Advocate....

Might it be that for once in their dismal lives the MSM is acting responsibly and cooperating with the FBI to allow time for them to catch co-conspirators?

Ok, Ok, silly idea. Howbout this: They haven't figured how they can hang this on Bush yet?

"He may not have intended to kill himself, radio waves could have set off his devise before he could get it into place"

How does that work? Or can you say.

I was thinking hmmmm, if those bombs can be detonated by radio waves, wouldn't it be prudent to make anyone with a backpack walk through a radio wave filled chamber before entering a public place? That way if they have a bomb, they can blow up alone. Is that rude?

You might want to hit abuse on yourself regarding that post to keep this thread from being deleted and/or to keep in good graces with the Mods.....(we're not supposed to link to that site either).

Ramadan is commencing very soon. All males grow beards during this month.

I know because my two sons sadly (to me anyway) converted to Islam a few years ago.

Apparently The Northeast Intelligence Network is not trusted around here.

There's a reason for this. If one of us made stuff up in our basement, it wouldn't be trusted here either. We leave that sort of thing to CBS News.

Why did they pull it? Are we not supposed to link to WND stories?

Sure makes you wonder....

I'm in upstate NY. Most of the headlines lately have been about a local guy who abducted his daughter, dropped her off, stole some cars, and held a couple people hostage. Sunday's haedline was about- I'm NOT kidding- manure lagoons. What planet has the editor been on in the last couple of days?

Whatever the reason for spiking this story, whether for "good" motives or "bad", the very fact that this is happening is significant.

What's amazing is that we're seeing this here, but don't see it in many other cases where it would seem at least as well justified.

Whatever the explanation, the very fact that this is taking place has profound implications for those who are concerned about global control of commercial media.

If news can be blacked out for something like this, it can be done for anything.

That's much bigger news than the bombing itself.

[hispanarepublicana]

not favoritism on the part of the mods.

So I baked them those cookies and took them on that pheasant hunt for nothing?

Somebody joked yesterday... a 'phone-call'.

Finally, if Hinrichs was just a disturbed guy who decided to kill himself with a bomb 100 yards from a crowd of 84,000 people instead of simply putting a bullet through his temple, slashing his wrists or some other traditional way of doing away with oneself, why is the FBI and the Joint Terrorism Task Force now the lead agency in the investigation?

It's crystal clear to me that this guy wasn't planning to blow himself up, but to kill thousands and plant more bombs later. Thank God, his plot failed and he didn't kill anyone but himself.

The Mods always liked you better anyway. "why can't you be more like hispanarepublicana" they would say. No wonder I have a complex!

LOL

WorldNetDaily has its own agenda. Take this article with more than a grain of

I know, it was just a joke.

How does that work? Or can you say.

One possibility (not claiming this is how it worked...) Buys cheap throw away cell phone, wires to bomb. Goes in Stadium and leaves vest, backpack, etc.

Goes outside and calls it.

But before he gets in, while arming it, the cell phone gets a call, or he pushes a button accidently on it, causing the speaker to sound (the easiest circuit to tap for trigger pulse is the cellphone ringer and/or speaker).

Tinfoil hats say that there are cell phone blockers in stadiums, but if there are they sure don't block outbound calls. Although I've had my cellphone take a message instead of ring while sitting in a ballpark, I assumed it was just cuz of excess circuit use in the ballpark. You sure see enough people on cell phones in ballparks.

Ok, I'll get back on my meds now...

I don't know how true the Islamic materials part is - it was posted on NEIN, which is sort of like Debka - sometimes right on target and ahead of the pack, and sometimes raving. However, someone else said that the Islamic materials may have come from his search for a way to build a suicide vest, which is apparently a common feature of Muslim websites...

The bomb making stuff has been reported elsewhere, so it seems legit. Go to the NEIN website to see a picture of the special armored bomb cannister being taken away from his apartment, according to NEIN, laden with explosives.

OU President David Boren said Hinrichs was a student "who had very, serious personal problems that led to this tragic death."

Yes, he did. Mental ilness caused by Islam.

As with most stories, I found it here first on FR.
