Authorities investigate ‘large amount’ of chemicals found in N.Y. home
NEW YORK (CNN) — Several blocks have been evacuated in Staten Island, N.Y., as police are investigating a “large amount” of chemicals discovered at a home, police said.

Agents from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are on the scene questioning an individual who had ordered “what appears to be potassium nitrate,” from a chemical dealer in Ohio, according to an ATF official.

The dealer notified local ATF when the individual placed a second order for delivery in August. ATF notified New York police it was planning to question the person, and NYPD followed up by mobilizing full-force with their bomb squad and hazmat teams, according to the ATF official.

Officials from local police and fire, the state Department of Environmental Protection and ATF were on scene trying to determine exactly what kind of chemicals were inside, police say.

Police were seen removing items from the home.

Counterterror expert: London bomb probably Al-Qaeda’s greeting for Gordon Brown

Probably not Irish. From SkyNews (thanks to Jeffrey Imm):

Shane Brighton, a counter-terrorism expert, told Sky the device may be linked to Al Qaeda in the wake of Gordon Brown becoming Prime Minister.
He said: “This is highly unlikely to be an Irish device, given the current state of politics there. Al Qaeda tend to go for symbolic timing.”

In a surprise move, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal by Guantanamo detainees of their terrorism-era confinement behind bars.

The only way Britain will be safe in the end is to close down every mosque, DEPORT every Muslim, and prohibit any more Muslims from entering the country.

Until that happens, they are in constant danger.

All the $billions spent by the British and American governments on ‘security’. Yet two potentially major attacks are foiled by vigilant citizens.

As cynical as I am about the security efforts, it is still a fallacy to point out these two particular incidents as somehow indicators of failure of said security. I.e., we have no idea how many attacks those security measures really have prevented.

The reporter who wrote this article quoted an official who doesn’t have a clue. He called the Paks who carried out the 2005 suicide bombings “unremarkable British youths” who became suicide bombers. They were NOT “British youths”—they were muslims!!!! How long before we have “ordinary American youths”who are really muslims engaging in the same behavior?

If one of the leading Democrats whom I saw on the debate last night becomes President, it will happen sooner rather than later. What a lineup of Serbophobes and sycophants to the muslims—Hillary Khomeini, Biden, Dodd, and Baraka Hussein Obama. (The latter is a stealth Serbophobe, whose mentor is Lieberman.) With one of them as President, we’ll have communities run by sharia law, strict enforcement of “hate crime” laws, and unlimited islamic immigration. And sooner rather than later, we’ll have another 9/11 or something even worse!!!!

That’s quite a bit, certainly, but more of a big fire than a ‘massive explosion’...

Uhm no ... 15 gallons of gas can make a HUGE Fuel Air Bomb.
