You know, I don't want to jump to conclusions here, because that would make me too much like Matt Drudge. But if the car bomber was indeed a white guy in his 40s who didn't know the difference between ammonium nitrate and plain old fertilizer, I'm thinking it's gotta be a Beck Patriot who was trying to water the tree of liberty with... the blood of random Times Square tourists.

I mean, it's just their kind of logic:

Law enforcement officials offered a more detailed description of the makeup of the failed car bomb found in Times Square on Saturday night, and said they were reviewing surveillance footage that showed a white man who appeared to be in his 40s walking away from the area as he looked over his shoulder and removed a layer of clothing.

Raymond W. Kelly, the police commissioner, said the materials found in the Nissan Pathfinder — gasoline, propane, firecrackers and simple alarm clocks — also included eight bags of a granular substance, later determined to be nonexplosive grade of fertilizer, inside a 55-inch-tall metal gun locker.

The bomb, Mr. Kelly said, “would have caused casualties, a significant fireball.” He added, “I don’t think we can label it at this time crude or not.”

Let's see: wrong kind of fertilizer. Shut-off propane tanks. Someone who's not all that bright, or good with details? Someone who apparently modeled his bomb on those of infamous bombmaker Wile E. Coyote?

Ah, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's a Limbaugh listener.

Nachum at Free Republic thinks otherwise:

To me, it sounds like a liberal charade to take the heat off Barack and put it on the tea partiers.

Brilliant thinks someone's being framed:

They are going to hang this failed bomb on some fat, white guy who was allegedly seen at a Tea Party rally. The construction of the device was so botched it seems almost like a set up and some sad nutter was talked into driving it to Times Square. I know, you think I wear a tin foil hat to bed, but I really don’t trust our present government.

Yes, the rest of the freepers are insisting the perpetrator must be a white man who's a convert to Islam.

I swear to God, I do not Make. This. Stuff. Up. I don't have to.

Brilliant seems greatly confused here. He thinks "some sad nutter" and teabagger are mutually exclusive categories, when it is obvious that they are the same.

They are getting more like the Taliban by the day. Know the American Taliban leaders by their dark suit uniforms, the lapel pin, the hair, the part out of the side of their heads [how do they do that?], the shoes [apparently very important cult symbol].

Tribal members are a bit harder to identify, but it gets easier with practice. It's real easy if you use racial profiling simply because they are almost all white, not that i'm advising this is any way!
It's real easy if you use age profiling simply because they are middle age or older [plus a few of their offspring]. There are a lot of members that thought they were going to be rich by following Bush down his rabbit hole, and they're crazy that they were thwarted.

Nothing makes the narcissist crazier than getting busted.

The story coming from Times Square could have been horrendous.

Maybe it was peckerhead Beck himself.

bonsai pajamas's picture

That silhouette in the vid looks a lot, I mean a LOT, like Beck. And he hasn't denied it's him. So, must be, right?

bad_robbie's picture

Was it Beck who planted the "bomb"? I don't know, I'm just asking questions like you. I'm not important here, it's you people. You people asking if Glenn Beck attempted to bomb Times Square. We deserve -- you deserve -- answers to these questions.

bonsai pajamas's picture

I'm not saying it IS Beck, just asking, How do we know it's NOT Beck?

Beck's show is shot in New York, isn't it? That seems like it COULD be suspicious to me.

who pulled the plug on him? Maybe he was trying to make a statement to them?

bonsai pajamas's picture

Of course, even if Nissan has never advertised with Beck, he probably isn't happy about that. Nissan is a big, prestigious company. Does Beck feel that they've snubbed him?

I think it's worth mentioning here that Beck has never denied raping, murdering, and eating the heart of that young girl in Connecticut. Not that he was ever officially a suspect or that the crime was ever committed, but still...

bad_robbie's picture

So he had opportunity. Someone saw him at Home Depot once, there's your means. And from his show, we've got motive. Certainly doesn't mean he did it. Just that there's a good chance that he did. I don't know. It's just one possibility. It's almost mathematically impossible that these are coincidences. "Beck" has four letters; "Bomb" has four letters. Connect the dots.

It sure is suspicious. I've been searching the internet looking for anything that might exonerate Beck, but, sadly, I've found nothing. To the contrary, I've found one source, a fairly reputable one, that suggests that, if not Beck himself, it was at least one of his fans who committed this crime.

This other one didn't appear to have that much planning ability and didn't get his part of the job done. Maybe this one decided against the plan at the last minute. Who knows?

Though I wouldn't belittle the act, I'm wondering if they've checked the film footage from their toll booths yet?

to speculate until more is known.

For instance, I heard a rumor this was in response to South Park and the Muhammad depiction recently aired.

This supposed bomb sounds, to me, like someone went shopping at Home Depot in preparation for the spring and summer. I am still calling shenanigans.

I read someplace the tags were from CT and that the individual claimed to have sent them to the salvage-yard?

Why they would send them to the junk-yard instead of the DMV, seems odd?

It's not that unusual for a car to be junked with the tags still on it. A couple of years ago my son-in-law was in a bad accident far from home. He was taken to the hospital and the car was hauled off by a city wrecking crew (Chicago). It took a couple of days to sort out where the car had gone and when we located it the tags were gone along with all the CDs and loose change from the car.

We had a particularly bad case here with the guy who shot the cops; some guy took credit for it and diverted resources from the real criminal.

besides Arizona's gestapo and the gulf oil spill. But nobody should notice or point out these things lest it upset people who can't figure out the emoticon for rolling eyes. There's just too much sense in the observation. It must be a conspiracy!

How about this for a bit of wild speculation?

This is yet another "bomb that isn't actually a bomb", not unlike the crazy jihadist wannabes shoe-bomber and underwear-bomber. The major difference this time was a "bomb" without the "suicide bomber". And this time it's on the ground in NYC, instead of in the air in a commercial aircraft. Also, this incident is just before a visit by the President of Iran to the UN on Monday. The vehicle was located about 6 blocks from the UN, but only a block or so away from Viacom -- so it looks like we have a conflicted bomber without firm (suicidal) resolve.

Ergo, we have yet another black-ops false flag operation by rouge elements of our intelligence apparatus (perhaps Blackwater/Xe or Mossad?) who is trying to generate actionable justification for a new military adventure, now in Iran. This, as opposed to actionable justification against Iraq/Afghanistan (shoe-bomber), or actionable justification against Yemen (underwear-bomber). But the underlying theme remains the same -- an unsuccessful bombing attempt that is designed to reinforce the fear-factor among the general population (and reverberated in the echo-chamber MSM) for new military adventures. The MICC beast has a voracious appetite, and demands to be fed anew, and with the US military coming to the aid of poor defenseless Israel.

Makes perfect sense to me, in an alternate universe kind of way, where the Reich-winger PNAC document passes as an official US Government policy paper. A new "Pearl Harbor", anyone? Google "Operation Northwoods" for an eye-opener ... I don't just pull these ideas out of thin air.

Real terrorists, whether domestic or foreign, don't seem to have any particular problem building bombs that actually work. The knowledge-base is readily available, whether it's from the internet, military training manuals, some organic chemistry textbook, or anarchist cookbook. Truthfully, one doesn't need to be particularly bright to build a working bomb, only ambitious.

But if the perpetrators are more interested in generating fear and panic, to be utilized for some other arcane purpose (political theatre), an actual working bomb is unnecessary perhaps even undesirable. Especially if the desired result, like new military actions or even justification for an organization's continued existence, increased funding, or more egregious suppression of basic human rights were the real objective.

It seems that every government, especially democracies, feel perfectly justified in mounting covert false flag operations in order to bend the will of their people to a particular endeavor, no matter how otherwise unpopular or irrational.

No, of course it would not be irresponsible to question if the Times Square bomber is a Glenn Beck fan following dear leaders orders to begin the violence. As we've learned from Fox News, if you put a question mark after the statement it makes it okay. I've also heard that "some say" the bomber is a follower of hate radio people like Rush Limpbaugh. It's not me saying it mind you.....it's "some" who said it.

Afterall, what some people say may or may not be news depending on who is listening and whether or not they want it to be news. In fact, were it not for hearsay and wild speculation, our news programs in America would probably be limited to a half hour of local and a half hour of national news per day, like in the 1950's. That'd put a tremendous burden upon the networks to produce programming for the remaining 23 hours which would just be awful now that Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez are dead.
