7/7: What kind of explosives have been used? Endless contradictions.
I posted this a couple of hours in the GD section and it might interest you.
I closely followed Skinner's advice of how to write the thread so I hope that it will stay where it should belong.

1. And now this ....
After they declared it was military stuff, C4, TNT, then home-made stuff, then even perfume was used until they finally admitted they had no clue and don't even have a clue when they will have a clue what kind of explosives have been used on 7/7. (and this although they found explosives in the van at Luton and even nine bombs in Lindsay's car in Luton. If it is the same material it should have made the analysis considerably easier. If it was different material this raises many serious questions).

But now they come up with this:
Police sources said they did not know yet whether the fifth device was dumped by one of the four or whether there was a fifth potential bomber.
They said there were "chemical similarities" between last week's explosive mix and the home-made explosive that killed 52 people, plus the four bombers, on July 7.

Hm, how can you make such a judgement if you still don't know what kind of explosives were used on 7/7???

2. Now they are saying hair dye was used in the bombs!
This is crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4744211.stm

"The July 7 attackers used hair bleach and citric acid to prepare the explosives that killed 52 innocent people in London four weeks ago and set off their bombs with mobile phones, according to the New York Police Department.

Precise details about the composition of the bombs and their method of detonation were made public yesterday at a conference in New York for business leaders and transport police at Police Plaza in Lower Manhattan.

Ray Kelly, the New York Police Commissioner, told a mixed audience of police and private security officials from New York's banks, hotels and storage facilities that the explosives used on July 7 were not military grade, as was originally thought, but were made of products that can be bought on any high street.

"Initially it was thought that perhaps the materials were high-end military explosives that were smuggled, but it turns out not to be the case," said Commissioner Kelly. "It’s more like these terrorists went to a hardware store or some beauty supply store.""

They also say big refrigerators are signs of terrorists, since these ingredients must be stored cool!

3. Don't forget the nailbombs

and the other nice bombies shown by ABC.

They left them back in one of the cars at Luton station. Only the Lord knows why.

Apparently, these bombers were really versatile, yet they were so dumb that they committed involuntary suicide.

6. Hair bleach?
And I thought it was perfume? Did I miss something?
Or did Lindsay by hair bleach from Armani for £700 ........???

Jesus, Scotland Yard, please help me out: I still have high hopes that you're doing better than the FBI! Four weeks for determing the compounds of the bombs used should be enough, shouldn't it?

5. What about the witnesses who said the bombs were under trains?

7. Yeah, and it was probably military explosives with timers
As reported by some of the earliest explosives experts involved in the investigation.

Military explosives under the carriages would also be likely to cause short circuiting of the electrified third rail, and transformer failure as orginally reported on 7/7. Also, one witness said she felt like she was being electrocuted...she was the dance partner of the witness who first was quoted revealing that the bombs were underneath the floor of the trains. No suicide bombers at all.

It all adds up. But the official propaganda sources are just spewing one off the wall lie after another now.
