damn, wonder what party this will help
None, I imagine...probably just somebody taking the opportunity to attack the UK (and NYC at the same time) and get it on the headlines, cause a bit of a stir in the UK, try and worry people into thinking therell be more attacks in the actual UK
maybe.

Gee whatya know... it's on FOX...
Are there any other news links to confirm this? Or is it just another scare tactic? I need more proof than Fox. I've never trusted their news.
Gotta trust the good old beeb ;)

Thanks my fair maiden. Now I believe. But of course, I still don't care. Terrorism does not scare me. They're just a bunch of pathetic losers, only making the Polititians seem better, and making idiots get into power by promising to deal with them - and then doing nothing, of course. :mad:
I wonder if there is any possiblility that the IRA is involved?

more then likely some one will come out and say "they knew for months it was going to happen" they always do after every single attack they try and put the blame directly on someone. theres always a conspiracy theory. which is what it is a theory! im waiting for the lunitic that says he has proof that they could have stopped it or knew about it. then there will be a big rumor, with no proof, and everyone will believe it. They will put it on the front page of the paper and everyone will get mad at the government. then it will be found as a big hoax and they will try and correct the story by putting it in the very back of the paper that no one reads in very small print, with no big subtitle saying they were wrong of course. so it will go down in peoples minds that the government does care about explosions. and the people will go on forever paranoid about explosions that are going to happen, that the government knows and doesn't care for, then all will go on as usual.
The bombs were small and did very minimal damage, only blowing out window. So I doubt terrorists are involved, probably just some lone nut having a bit of fun.
The BBC only gave it a few seconds in their last bulletin.

Very interesting. I wonder if it was muslim extremists trying to change the outcome of this election.
Doesn't matter anyway! Blair is expected to win.

Lil bit paranoid are we? :) It is probably just someone trying to influence the vote over here in the UK. But if they're trying to influence the vote over here....why not plant the bomb over here? From the scale of the devices and the suposed things used, this can't be a propper terrorist act. Real T's don't do things by halves...

Naw. Wouldn't they have used a truckbomb or something? They'd at least have waited for there to be more than one person in the building.
Maybe there's more explosions to come. Hope not. But you never know.

I live in NYC.
What 1010Wins News is saying is some bright boy got two novelty grenades, packed them with black powder, lit them and ran.
I doubt it's anything more than your average NY idiot.

I agree, this has the markings of mindless prank rather than terrorism.

The underlying concern is how? I understand these were crude and small. How did they get there? What if they were more effective? It exposes vulnerabilty. Someone is now watching how its dealt with while they asses a more useful target.

quite true, this is an issue with the security of that building, I personaly give thanks to that cement planter and window for sacrificing themselves for the sake of the revamping of the safety of another NY building. :) :P
