Police In Standoff With Man Threatening To Blow Himself Up In London's Terminal 5

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Update: it appears the suicide bomber has been arrested.

Earlier, Heathrow's Terminal 5 was shut down earlier on rumors of a package. According to Sky News, however, the package is about 5'10", is packing a bomb and is now in a standoff with armed police. Unclear if extra baggage fees are the culprit. The one thing so far missing from the latest geopolitical escalation was terrorism. Hopefully this incident does not usher that in.

Sorry to spoil your all your fun folks but it was a hoax call tipping off the police to a suspect passenger who was held, searched then released.

Really nothing to see here, more interesting stuff elsewhere, e.g. look at the Japanese earthquake & tsunami.

Suicide bomber? He's not very good. Obviously, he never graduated his final exam.

And remember, Building 7 just fell down - welll....because.

 

Rumsfeld tells Mancow yesterday that he never heard of Building 7 falling on 9/11


Some news travels slow in D.C., especially when it comes to a 47 story building in NYC, on 9/11, falling into its own footprint, at free-fall speed, for little-to-no apparent reason.

Being Secretary of Defense at that time, he obviously had a lot on his mind, beings that he was on the ground at the Pentagon within minutes after the event, giving on-the-scene orchestration, err, I mean assistance after whatever hit that building had occurred.

Never mind that the vast majority of offices in WTC Building 7 where directly related to his job, serving many different federal, and even NY state intelligence agencies. I'm sure there are some perfectly plausible excuses for not knowing nearly ten years later of the event that caused some of those serving under him to die, and caused high-level intelligence data therein to be destroyed.

CPAC event organizers wouldn't have given Rumsfeld their "Defender of the Constitution" award if something that important was overlooked by him, would they?

Here is video of that unprecedented 9/11 event which Donald Rumsfeld claims he still hasn't seen, nor even heard of:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6QV6LK8j1Q

 

 

WTC7.net the hidden story of Building 7: What Was In Building 7?

Building 7 was one of New York City's larger buildings. A sleek bronze-colored skyscraper with a trapezoidal footprint, it occupied an entire city block and rose over 600 feet above street level.

Built in 1985, it was formerly the headquarters of the junk-bond firm Drexel Burnham Lambert, which contributed to the Savings and Loans collapse, prompting the $500-billion taxpayer-underwritten bailout of the latter 1980s. At the time of its destruction, it exclusively housed government agencies and financial institutions. It contained offices of the IRS, Secret Service, and SEC.

Tenant Square Feet Floor Industry Salomon Smith Barney 1,202,900 GRND,1-6,13,18-46 Financial Institution IRS Regional Council 90,430 24, 25 Government U.S. Secret Service 85,343 9,10 Government C.I.A. N/A N/A Government American Express Bank International 106,117 7,8,13 Financial Institution Standard Chartered Bank 111,398 10,13,26,27 Financial Institution Provident Financial Management 9,000 7,13 Financial Institution ITT Hartford Insurance Group 122,590 19-21 [Insurance] First State Management Group, Inc 4,000 21 Insurance Federal Home Loan Bank 47,490 22 Financial Institution NAIC Securities 22,500 19 Insurance Securities & Exchange Commission 106,117 11,12,13 Government Mayor's Office of Emergency Mgmt 45,815 23 Government

This list is based on a table published by CNN.com, which did not include CIA, whose tenancy was disclosed after the attack in the New York Times article. 1  

One of the most interesting tenants was then-Mayor Giuliani's Office of Emergency Management, and its emergency command center on the 23rd floor. This floor received 15 million dollars worth of renovations, including independent and secure air and water supplies, and bullet and bomb resistant windows designed to withstand 200 MPH winds. 2   The 1993 bombing must have been part of the rationale for the command center, which overlooked the Twin Towers, a prime terrorist target.

How curious that on the day of the attack, Guiliani and his entourage set up shop in a different headquarters, abandoning the special bunker designed precisely for such an event. 3

Well, the man was in the Pentagon that day (and documented to be outside carrying victims to medical help), so maybe he had other things on his mind at the time.

There is no such thing as terror ism. Terror is a tool of achieving the goals of your ism.

Nobody terrorizes for the fun of it.

 

Or what do you think about votingism, strikeism? I know the words terrorism and terrorists are commonly used in US media to refer any kind (suspected) enemies of the US, but I trust you ZeroHedge readers are so sophisticated that brainwashing you into fear of terrorism is impossible.

People who are afraid of something become controllable, too. If I create an illusion that I can guarantee your safety, I control you.

Anyone want to bet where this failures "connections" will be?

 

If you said, "Libya," ding-ding-ding.

 

Obvious reason of the day award!

 

If this guy does turn out to have connections to Libya, bet your butts we'll be helping the UK out with that "No-Fly Zone" and find ourselves in yet another non-declared war where our kids will die and Halliburton (now a Dubai company) will steal billions of our tax dollars while NOT PAYING A DIME IN FEDERAL CORPORATE INCOME TAX.

Nah, I'm sure it's just a random incident of some disgruntled soccer fan.
