16 Unexploded Bombs Found In London Bomber's Trunk

Police speculate that maybe they got to the car too quickly for other bombers to take the devices.

Which doesn't really make sense, because one would expect that all twenty would be detonated at the same time, if they were all in the same car. Obviously the system is going to be shut down for the rest of the day after the first bombing; so why bring them out of the safe-house at all, if not to be used simultaneously with the others?

So, I think it's more likely that 20 psychopathic murder-cultists (hmmm... 20? ring any bells?) agreed to do this but only four showed up on Virgins' Suicide day.

If so... at least it's somewhat comforting to know that, religious lunacy and death-cultism aside, only 20% of hard-core jihadis are willing to actually die for... who knows. Establishing the Universal Caliphate or whatever.

20% Not 25%: Happy now, math-heads?

Geeks.

Twenty, Ace, 20%. Sorry, had to say it.

Posted by: TheDude on July 27, 2005 05:54 PM

I agree with TheDude. 4 of 20 is 20%. Typical republican rigorous fact checking! You probably hate mathematicians, don't you? Hate monger! Hate monger!

Posted by: Chuck on July 27, 2005 05:59 PM

hah... got mixed up. First I was thinking of the five suspects, forgetting that one of them wasn't an actual bomber.

Posted by: ace on July 27, 2005 06:08 PM

Is the 16 extra bombs confirmed, or not?

And I see that everyone else can do math, too. I'm impressed! Now, can we all nit-pick our own grammar and spelling, as well? I'd appreciate it.

So would my mother.

grrrrrrr...

Journalism is the first draft of history, they say.

Blogging is the sloppy, just-throw-words-up-and-hope-they-stick pre-draft of journalism.

Either 16 didn't show, or the "suicide" bombers thought they would place the first bombs, then come back to the car, get some more, etc, etc. Since the second set of bombers didn't seem to be planning suicide, maybe the first set of bombers weren't either. Michael Ledeen is highly skeptical of the suicide theory. The 16 extra bombs would tend to support that (I think).

What a clever bastard you are ACE OF SPADES!

Given the success (or lack thereof) of the last batch, maybe they simply NEEDED this many as backups?

Maybe they're using Lucas triggering systems?

It's quite obvious that Halliburton left the bombs in the car to frame the innocent terrorists, er, Muslims.
