“Car Bomb” comes to Broadway

For those whose memory doesn’t go back to the early 1950’s, “Metesky was better known as the Mad Bomber [and] terrorized New York City for 16 years in the 1940s and 1950s with explosives that he planted in theaters, terminals, libraries and offices.

Bombs were left in phone booths, storage lockers and restrooms in public buildings, including Grand Central Terminal, Pennsylvania Station, Radio City Music Hall, the New York Public Library, the Port Authority Bus Terminal and the RCA Building, as well as in the New York City Subway. Perhaps most notably, Metesky bombed movie theaters, where he cut into seat upholstery and slipped his explosive devices inside.[1]” You might call him the father of urban terror.

In fact, “Angry and resentful about events surrounding a workplace injury suffered years earlier, Metesky planted at least 33 bombs, of which 22 exploded, injuring 15 people.[2] He was apprehended based on an early use of offender profiling and clues given in letters he wrote to a newspaper. He was found legally insane and committed to a state mental hospital [3][4].”

In short, George was a major fruitcake, pioneer of Street Theater of the Real, i.e. terror, with no ideology but being wronged by his former employer, Con Ed, for lack of proper recompense for a job injury. He didn’t have a beard. He was affiliated with no one, simply playing on the fears of an overcrowded New York City, post WW II, en route to Korea. Though 22 of his 33 bombs exploded, no one was killed, but 15 people were hurt. He was caught by profiling clues he gave of himself writing letters to the newspapers. Obviously, he had a writer’s instinct. His electrical background came from the US Marines. He served as specialist electrician at the US Consulate in Shanghai, following WW I.

Yet, our “Broadway Bomber” of today managed to get the City and the world’s attention, including the Mayor, Police Commissioner, City Council Speaker and Governor, with a failed op. No blowback but maximum effect.

But the Mayor and Commissioner were returning early from a White House correspondents’ dinner in Washington D.C., the New York Times reported. They still had their tuxes on and nice red bow ties, ready to serve us at 2 A.M. like head waiters in one of the nearby hotels.

The Mayor said “we were very lucky. We avoided what could have been a very deadly event.” Commissioner Kelly said the bomb “would have caused casualties, a significant fireball,” had it ignited. Paul J. Brown, the NYPD’s chief spokesman said, “It would have been, in all likelihood, a good possibility of people being killed, windows shattered, but not resulting in a building collapse.” Well, that’s good news, not another building collapse like Tower Seven into its footprint in 6.5 seconds. And hit by no hijacked airliner. Notice Brown’s subtle escalation technique.

Meanwhile Midtown was shut down from 43rd Street to 48th Street, from Sixth to Eighth Avenues. Excitement filled the air tinged with fear, panic, and relief that the Broadway Bomber eventually fizzled. Yet Times Square was evac’d, the South Tower of the Marriott Marquis Hotel as well. And gee whiz, this could have been the best, most believable, exciting show in town, and free.

Only days after a warning of an Israeli ‘false flag’ bombing against the US ‘in the works’ a massive car bomb is discovered in Time Square! Better yet, though no intelligence organization in the world could discover anyone claiming responsibility for this embarrassing failure, SITE Intelligence, a group rumored as the ‘voice of the Mossad’ has placed the blame on the Pakistani Taliban.” Is this before or after the Taliban disavowed credit for the crime, minor detail.

Nevertheless, “This is the same group that has come up with numerous bin Laden ‘audio’ tapes, seemingly, though tiny and nearly totally unstaffed, whenever it is convenient for Israel to point a finger at someone, magically Site Intelligence, run by former IDF soldier Rita Katz, whose father was executed as a spy by Saddam Hussein, makes another ‘unbelievable’ intelligence find.” Read the whole bloody mess for yourself and cancel your B’nai B’rith theater party.

Times Square Eyewitness: “Either the terrorists were running a drill, or the cops were…it sure seemed like it could have been a drill.”

An additional detail that suggests police bomb drills may have been taking place in and around the incident is the fact that Lee County Sheriff Michael Scott told WINK News that he was in New York during the weekend training with the New York bomb squad. While it’s unclear whether or not the drills were related to the bomb scare, Scott said that he was at the scene of the incident working with New York police.

“Somebody asked me why I didn’t start taking pictures of the car, I was not in tourist mode at that time I was in cop mode, and you just sort of sense the danger,” said Scott.

According to the news anchor, Scott had been training with the bomb squad before he was called to work the car bomb case just hours later.

Why are drills and exercises surrounding real attacks important? While it remains to be seen whether potential drills surrounding the Times Square incident were of any significance, false flag terror attacks are habitually accompanied by almost identical exercises which provide plausible deniability if any evidence comes to light of inside involvement.

Both 9/11 and the 7/7 London bombings were accompanied by drills, which in the case of 7/7 were virtually identical to the times and locations at which the real bombings took place, a statistically impossible coincidence.

The Joe Stack kamikaze attack also took place at the precise moment a Hazmat team was stationed next to the IRS building in Austin Texas conducting an exercise.

The fact that authorities in New York have almost instantly exploited the incident to push for an expansion of invasive surveillance cameras across the city provokes questions as to how much police knew about the vehicle before they commenced with a baffling evacuation process which seemed to focus around certain buildings and not the area as a whole, as would be expected if authorities really feared that a car bomb was about to go off.

CIA MI6 employee with future secret agent

Car bomb suspect who slipped under radar is son of air force chief

What is beyond doubt is that he first came to the US in 1998 as 19-year-old student, the son of an air vice-marshal of the Pakistani Air Force, Baharul Haq, who remains well known as the founder of the Sherdils, the country’s leading military aerobatics team. He acquired two degrees, in computer science and business administration, from small private colleges in Washington and Bridgeport, Connecticut.

As a student he was “unremarkable” but diligent when it came to retaking his exams. As an office worker he was competent. As a US visa applicant he passed all the FBI’s security checks with “no derogatory information”.

He showed no outward sign of being radicalised as a student or since. No mosques contacted since he allegedly left a smoking SUV in Times Square on Saturday have acknowledged any contact with a Faisal Shahzad. He shopped at a halal grocery in Bridgeport before his final trip to Pakistan last year, but he and his family also ate at the Red Lobster chain and Burger King.

On February 3 Mr Shahzad returned from Pakistan after nine months in Waziristan, but slipped beneath the FBI’s radar because, since April last year, he has been a US citizen and was therefore subject only to cursory immigration checks. His entitlement to citizenship came courtesy of his wife, Huma Mian, the daughter of a successful oil executive.

e was remembered clearly yesterday in the village of Mohib Banda outside Peshawar, where friends of his family expressed great surprise at his arrest. “He came from a respectable family and was not even a religious person,” Kayfayatullah Khan said.
