Fake Bombs?

The fact that none of the alleged bombs that were apparently mailed to prominent Democrats raises suspicions about the authenticity of the threat and hence the identity and motivations of the perp.

Just like Lou Dobbs, you provide no evidence to back your assertion. He was forced to delete the tweet about it after the backlash he received. Will you learn from him?

Just to remind everyone who some of Obama's friends are.

Learn What?

Learn to retract a reasonable question in response to a series of alleged bombings when no explosions occurred and there is no evidence that the suspicious packages even contained real explosives? As someone who has been involved in the mining industry which uses concrete mixer trucks to pour Ammonium Nitrate and fuel oil explosives in 20 ton lots and also participated in the detonation of a 700 ton ANFO charge for a nuclear simulation, my opinion is far more informed than yours. The probability that these packages were functional bombs with real explosives is very nearly zero.

Lou Dobbs didn't ask a question. He stated that the bombs were "Fake News". And you didn't ask a question either, you have a sentence with an incomplete thought (the fact reference by the "fact that" portion portion of the thought is missing) about the bombs and threat being fake.

So your experience with commercial mining demolition and a few media pictures is your evidence?

I'm not claiming to be an expert. I'm choosing to trust the FBI, Secret Service, and NYPD. You're making blithe assumptions based on experience of limited applicability.

And the link you posted is for a site that's at least 75% ads which to me indicates that it is not a credible source.

Here's a list of the packages and how they were found:

Barack Obama: Routine mail screening, announced by the Secret Service

Bill and Hillary Clinton: Routine main inspection, Secret Service credited with interception

Eric Holder: Addressed to Eric Holder, sent to the Florida office of Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Maxine Waters: 1 package sent to her Washington office, intercepted at a congressional mail-screening facility; 1 package found in LA post office

John Brennan: a "live explosive device" (quotation marks are on CNN's article too) delivered by courier to CNN offices at the Time Warner Center in NYC. NYPD stated that there was white powder in the package as well.

George Soros: Suspicious package found and appeared to be an explosive device. An unidentified law enforcement source told CNN that it was "rendered safe"

Robert De Niro: Suspicious package found at a nonresidential building in NYC according to NYPD Lt. Thomas Antonetti. Package was addressed to Robert De Niro.

All of the above packages had similar packaging, markings, and had Debbie Wasserman Schultz as the return address.

CNN wrote:The devices sent to Soros, Brennan and the Democratic officials appeared to be pipe bombs, said Bryan Paarmann, FBI special agent in charge of the counterterrorism division in New York.

An initial examination shows they are rudimentary but functional, and have similar construction. At least one contained projectiles, including shards of glass, a law enforcement official told CNN.

This is your regular reminder that political terrorism in the US is mostly committed by conservatives and right-wing actors against liberals or immigrants.

But you have to look underneath the underneath!
It's obviously a Republican double-flag operation intended to make people think that the Democrats sent the bombs to their own in order to blame the Republicans, thus ensuring that the public will therefore blame the Democrats and feel proud at not having been taken in, just as the Republicans planned!

Or it could be a Trump-supporting loony who doesn't understand how letter bombs are supposed to work...

You're just getting more pathetic by the day... will you ever tire of basing your worldview on unsubstantiated conspiracy theories?

Oooooohkayy....
Either you completely missed that I was making fun of the random theories going around or you need to learn to aim your ire better...

You really, really are a profoundly ignorant, hate mongering bigot as well as a troll.

Explain your theorie to the Republican Congressmen who were attacked by a leftwing lunatic while at baseball practice.
