4 London Copycat Bombers on the Run!

4 failed bombers in London are on the run from police – ‘failed’ because the bombs in their backpacks either didn’t go off as planned or more probably, to just create chaos, as one analyst, Professor Hans Michels of the pretigious Imperial College, pointed out that it was extremely unlikely that all four devices would have failed to explode.

London newspapers called them suicide bombers, which I think may be a bit premature – they haven’t shown any suicidal characteristics as yet.

Meanwhile in Pakistan, police claimed they might have nabbed the mastermind of the bombings. But of the 228 “suspects” the Pakis denied they hold the one British police wants, namely 30-year old Haroon Rashid Aswat, a former aide to one of Britain's most militant Islamic clerics, Abu Hamza al-Masri, the blind, one-armed militant cleric who preached jihad, but was arrested last year.
