Car Bomb in Times Square

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/02/nyregion/02timessquare.html

Scary stuff. A sign of the times or something we'll have to deal with long term?

:shock:

Hey 30A,

Martini bet says it ends up being an Angry Fat White Male behind this......

Unbelievable that it didn't detonate! It is scary and we are probably faced with this forever, unfortunately. I hope they find persons responsible for this!

I'm just glad they were too stupid to build a bomb that worked.

Probably doesn't need to be re-stated - poverty and lack of education often drive radical behavior. I am interested to know who's behind it.

Arkie might win a martini - white male, 40's. Not sure yet if male is fat; can assume he is angry.

That is not the way this is shaping up my friend. I'm sure this will come as a shock, but guess what, they still hate us...

Are you referring to the Islamic Extremist or Angry White Males hating "us"?

Time will tell.....tick,tick,tick......

BTW....did you not expect the Taliban to take credit for this? Are you hearing anything else but their claim?

Here is how this will play out:

The Pakistani Taliban allegedly posted a one minute, 11 second video, saying the attack is revenge for the death of its leader, Baitullah Mehsud, and the recent slayings of the top leaders of Al Qaeda in Iraq -- Abu Omar al-Baghdadi and Abu Ayyub al-Masri -- who were killed by U.S. and Iraqi troops last month north of Baghdad.

Conclusion: It's Obama's fault because we aren't as secure in America now because of his liberal socialistic agenda.


Kelly said during a press conference Sunday that the NYPD is analyzing a surveillance video showing a unidentified white male in his 40's fleeing the scene. Kelly said the man is seen in the footage shedding a dark-colored shirt in an alley and putting it in a bag, revealing a red one underneath.

Conclusion: It's Obama's fault because the economic collapse is causing poor unemployed folks to extreme actions.

OR

It's Obama's fault and government cover-up. It really was an Islamic Extremist Group, but the government is trying to blame it on poor hard working white males....

Or the Taliban is recruiting desperate white males to do their dirty work.

who knows? but, it is beginning to sound more like an older Timothy McVeigh wannabe...TG it did not explode.

NYPD just released a picture taken near the scene of the person of question.....

oh, so the perp was a perv...

Federal authorities are closing in on the man they say is a person of interest in the Times Square car bomb attempt this weekend, who is described as a naturalized American citizen who hails from Pakistan and just returned after spending five months there.

Police release video of possible suspect seen near site of failed attack.There is growing evidence the bomber did not act alone and had ties to radical elements overseas, with one senior official telling ABC News there are several individuals believed to be connected with the bombing and that at least one of them is a Pakistani-American.

Apparently some big wig Talaban leader was killed the prior week, and this may have been a hastily put together reprisal by some sort of sleeper cell. Sounds like we'll get the whole story in time.

What I'm wondering is, where the heck was homeland security in all of this?

They're White, they're brown, they're christian radical, they're muslim radical, payback cause Obama isn't American, payback for South Park's portrayal of Mu>>>>>>mad, payback for killing Tally leaders.....all over the media board for the past 48 hours....;-)

Patients ole "tini one....time will tell....methinks that we will have to go dutch before this is over....

White male islamic radicals......or Pee Wee Herman..

Homeland Security is in the Gulf because the rig, which was built by the South Koreans, was hit by a missile deployed by the North Koreans, thereby hurting their two biggest enemies at once.

The latest Conspiracy Theory.

Right. What's the farthest missile North Korea has ever launched before? where did they launch this one from? Cuba? From the book depository? High upon a grassy knoll??

Mayor Bloomberg's, too. He went on record in an interview with Katie Couric as saying it was ?somebody with a political agenda who doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.?

He got the political agenda part right, but couldn't stop there. That would have covered all the bases.

Way to show your hand, there, Slick!
