MORE (STRANGE) EXPLOSIONS IN LONDON ...

Apparently more "explosions" have gone off again in London. Three in "the tube" and one on the Number 26 double-decker bus.

But these are strange - very strange.

The modus-operandi appears to be the same as last weeks London bombings - which so far have killed 56 people. Four men were observed this time carrying backpacks that "exploded". And virtually the same target menu as before - three in the tube - one a double-decker bus.

But this time - no one was killed. And perhaps the injuries may be as low as .... ONE???

These four new "explosions" were very minimal - not like last week's.

When I first heard this - I was fearful. Lo-explosive detonations usually mean one thing - chemical, biological, or radiological (dirty bomb) agents.

However, the reports I've read from the BBC indicate that Police have tested for CBR and have found nothing. Now I'm seeing reports that the bombs were "dummies" - they were detonator explosions only - no high explosives involved.

That's weird.

Some reports also that these backpacks were actually "observed" exploding by some witnesses. I've seen one report where a witness observed a guy's backpack "explode" - then watched the guy swear at the backpack - as if it had somehow malfunctioned - then he apparently threw it down and ran off!

These reports are either incorrect - or they are indicative of some strange weirdness going on in Al Quaida central. Or, the explosions could have been nothing more than a very bad "practical joke" played by someone other than Al Quaida.

Keep an eye on this - something weird is going on over there I believe. And not just with this new round of very bizarre explosions - but also last week's too.

For instance, in the first explosions - some very strange things were found ...

• The terrorists responsible for the bombings all had purchased return tickets on the tube.
  
• They were observed on video cameras later to have been very calm, jovial, even joking before the bombings.
  
• Reports from some of the relatives indicate that the terrorist's behavior leading up to the blast were not at all in keeping with what you'd expect from a bunch of guy's going off to their deaths.
  
• One of the terrorists who committed suicide apparently had a new eight month old daughter and his wife was pregnant again???
  
• And probably the most telling thing to me - none of the terrorists screamed "Allahu Akbar!" -- God is Greatest -- before they blew themselves up?
  

So did these guys even know they were going off to their deaths?

It's going to take awhile to figure out all of this folks - but the story is going to be very, very interesting.

ADDENDUM: Now the BBC is reporting that perhaps explosives WERE found in the backpacks and are very similar to devices used in the last round of bombings. These explosives didn't go off this time though! If true - THIS IS A HUGE BREAK FOR SCOTLAND YARD! There are now 4 very much alive suicide bombers out there and Scotland Yard can use much of the same methodology they used to identify the first waive of terrorists to figure out who they are. When caught - these failed bombers will enable us to gain invaluable intelligence on how suicide bombers are recruited and trained as well as information on the logistics and planning and CHAIN OF COMAND behind them. My bet is - these guys are scrambling to get out of Britain as we speak - hopefully Scotland Yard can figure it all out before they do!
