Bomb Disposal Officer: Today’s Pipe Bombs – Appear to be “Hoax Devices”...
Gateway Pundit ^ | 10/24/18 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/24/2018 5:02:55 PM PDT by markomalley

Several bombs were sent out to Democrat leaders Wednesday – none of which detonated.

The Secret Service announced that suspicious packages were sent to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

George Soros, NY Governor Cuomo, former AG Eric Holder, Rep. Maxine Waters were also sent mail bombs.

The return address name on the suspicious packages sent to Clinton, Obama, Holder and Maxine Waters belonged to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

One of the bombs appeared to have the ISIS flag taped on it.

Former Bomb disposal officer Tom Sauer posted a thread on Twitter today discussing the incidents.

1.) Proper pipe bombs don’t have wires connected to both ends. That’s dumb.

2.) You can find timers / remote control receivers WAY smaller than whatever that white box is. A proper timer would best be stored inside the pipe, making it fully encapsulated. That thing is just silly looking.

3.) Bottom Line: Whoever made that wanted it to be painfully obvious to anyone and everyone that it’s a “bomb.”

This is nearly the same as a bundle of road flares wrapped together with an old-timey alarm clock ticking away.

4.) Hoax Devices” are FAR more common than real ones. In which case, we should ask ourselves what the motives of the “bomber” are and “who benefits?”

Go ahead. Think deeply and critically.

More from Tom…

And why is there a picture, in the FIRST place? Law enforcement would never allow pictures to be taken and disseminated.

The reason the stamps were not cancelled is that it never got past the Postal Sorting Center.

Anything going to someone with Secret Service protection has their mail diverted to a special facility that can screen for just these things.

Then how did CNN get one if it never left the postal service?

Is the CNN package clearly not cancelled?

If so, it could have been dropped off in-person, which means there will probably be surveillance video.

Just looked up how mail is processed. Mail is postmarked and the stamps cancelled BEFORE the addresses are noted and sorted.

Photos were done at CNN and interesting that as said earlier no body was running away, rather taking photos from various positions......It began at CNN....then Hillary speaks....followed by Como (CNN)....

Interesting also....Shulmer, Pelosi and Feinstein Did not get one..

This was a Hillary/Obama, Como CNN stunt with likely the usual Demorat leadership nodding in agreement. ALL who have a 'personal' bone to pick with Trump..not just political.

Interesting. Clinton was in Florida today, as was DWS. The fact that they were all found on the same day, in different parts of the country, certainly means conspiracy.

Gotta love the product review on Amazon by Dave B. here -

TOOGOO(R) Ultra-thin LCD Digital Display Vehicle Car Dashboard Clock with Calendar Cool

Dave B.

5.0 out of 5 stars

Great for terrorism

I hear this clock is great for attaching to PVC pipe with black electrical tape but doesn't withstand shipping in just an envelope well. Published 9 hours ago

If they have no surveillance of it being delivered, it very well could have originated at CNN. But apparently, all the fake bombs were similar. And found the same day in New York, Florida and los Angeles. None of it adds up, does it?

It adds up completely if the recipients knew the fake bombs were coming, expected them to be “discovered,” and had their SHOCK and OUTRAGE stories ready to go.

They weren’t necessarily “found” on the same day. The recipients could have had them on hand well beforehand, just waiting for the pre-arranged time to announce that they were “found.”

But I thought most of them were found at sorting locations where mail addressed to government higher ups mail is screened. And some of them apparently were actually delivered then redirected.

None of the so called targets were even at the places these bombs were found.....so they all appeared to be ‘out of the office’ so to speak.
