Second Massive Bomb Explosion Rocks Chinese City, Day After 17 Parcel Bomb Attacks Kill Seven
Yesterday, in the aftermath of the stunning report that 17 "massive" bomb explosions rocked Chinese city of Liuzhou, killing at least 7 and wounding at least 51, we asked if as a result of China's economic hard-landing and the surge in layoffs, the widespread popular unrest - which we suggested over the weekend is due for a comeback - has finally landed in China with tragic consequences, especially since the incident is clearly being treated as a criminal act.
We further noted that "if there is one thing China's politburo simply can not afford right now, is to layer public unrest and civil violence on top of an economy which is already in "hard-landing" move. Forget black - this would be the bloody swan that nobody could "possibly have seen coming."
Yesterday we got the first confirmation of this civil violence "bloody swan."
Less than 24 hours later, we got a second one, when earlier today another blast struck a sleepy area in the southern Chinese city of Liucheng, destroying a residential building.
According to the WSJ, it was unclear whether there were any casualties from Thursday’s explosion, but judging by the photos of the devastation which shows dramatic damage to a six-story building in Liucheng, it would be a miracle if nobody was injured.

Liucheng is a small county seat and is administratively part of the larger, nearby city of Liuzhou. In the wake of the explosions, post offices throughout Liuzhou are suspending delivery of packages until Oct. 3, Xinhua said. Authorities have also warned residents via text message against opening any suspicious parcels.
There was little more immediately available news:
A man answering the phone at a local courier-service company said that they had been temporarily ordered to cease operations and not told when they could resume. He said that police had warned locals not to trust strangers and hung up the phone.
Employees answering at the phone at the Liuzhou post office declined to comment. Phone calls to the local government’s information office rang unanswered.
The timing of the bomb attacks is hardly coincidental: "they come at a sensitive time as China kicks off its weeklong National Day holiday, with millions of people traveling. In the past, officials have sometimes played down or censored coverage of disasters, large accidents and other news over holidays, in part to damp a sense of public panic, according to media-monitoring groups."
Curiously, unlike on comparable previous occasions, China is not censoring the news of the two attacks in 24 hours, at least not on websites - it is intervening on social networks like Weibo:
Official news media largely featured coverage of the holiday, though most still placed news of the bombings prominently on websites. Social media, however, appeared to be attracting more scrutiny from authorities. Some posts on Weibo Corp. ’s Twitter-like service that questioned the authorities’ explanation of events and their decision to rule out terrorism were expunged, according to Free Weibo, a site that collects posts removed from Weibo."
Just as curioous, is that today's explosion takes place even as the authorities claim to have apprehended the person responsible for yesterday's bombings: police already apprehended a suspect, identified only as a 33-year-old man named Wei, a native of Liucheng county, according to Xinhua. Nothing was revealed about the possible motives for the attack..

Yesterday we concluded by asking "will today's deadly bombing be the end of it, or is it just starting?" For now the answer appears to be the latter.

Let's see how this one plays out!
In India this is described as propane tanks exploding next to mining detonaters.
We blew up some folks..
I smell Mossad/Rothschild...
Lavon Affair
Had to look it up. Interesting search results. http://www.jewwatch.com/jew-atrocities-the-lavon-affair-folder-overview.html
no one gives a fuck what you think. grow up, conscious cunt
Or could just be factional infighting in the CCP, namely Jiang Zemin trying to cause problems to Xi Jingpin. There are several very informative videos in the the China Uncensored channel on youtube.
But hey, look, squirrel!
Kinda guessing it was a Chinese meth lab.
Bleaking Bad.
...Chinese meth lab...

Most people in China feel the system is extremely corrupt and unfair. Chinese cities are crawling with decadent, rich communist bureaucrats and their disgustingly spoiled, snotty kids who drive around in expensive German cars, and both go way out of their way to treat common people like pure trash at every opportunity. One thing you can notice--in a society with so much boiling angst beneath the surface with no channel to vent frustration, people can completely flip out and lose it at any time--you can see it happen every day. Also, since they are not allowed to own guns, bombs have become a way of expressing violence, of getting back, and everyone knows how to make them--making bombs is really easy, anyone can do it. This is just the start, you will see a lot more of this as the economy frays further, and now the Uyghurs, Tibetans and others will catch on too.
One man's "separatist" is another man's "freedom fighter".
Your CIA heroine dollars at work?
More Uyghurs.
Ice ice baby
War in Syria heats up, Chinese naval vessels headed for Syria providing support for Russia, and explosions wrack China. Is it all a coincidence?
I just wonder where our MIC's next nest of evil bullies will be located. The ME is fading fast with Russia and China thwarting that game. Asia is out due to China. South America would put a bad light on the elites pet Hispanics. No one would believe Canada or Australia. Ideas anyone?
Indonesia.
West Africa
I suggest at home, politicially undesirable elements such as nationalists or free market libertarians are a good group to round up for the FEMA camps, plus this would both free up jobs for others, and create 1000's of jobs as prison guards.
Maybe the next major terrorist activity will be economic? Such as terrorists actively trying to destabilizing the economy by attacking the value of the currency? With actions such as unpatriotically buying, or just profiteering over the majority by holding gold thus causing the dollar to lose value, these kind of greedy selfish subversives need to be punished, and face the full force of the law....
The US.
Great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.
It would flush out a lot of the 2nd Amendment Constitutionalists and they could eliminate the Constitution and US sovereignty and usher in the NAU.
A new civil war to kill off the "bitter clingers" and finally eliminate the so called Constitutional Republic that they despise with every fiber of their being.
Yes...
I think Xi is a psychopath.
It's required to be one nowadays before they'll let you head a government.
Someone is trying to start WW3.
Archons
Blessed be those that see them.
im sure the cia was behind this..................
Pray do tell Tyler...
Is it
A) The fact that China is sending a military armada to Syria to help out it's two friends?...
Or is it
B) The Chinese have made the verbal comittment to the worst "nuclear option" possible at the UN dinner table which means another 600 to 800 billion worth of USTs are about to get dumped en masse on Brussels, London and Washington with the best game of "hot potato" to hide that fact before 2015 officially "closes the current" on the final act of the year!
A letter bomb did all that damage?
It was long overdue.
Letter fire, no need for bombs.
ISLAM == TERROR
I'm no fan of Islam, but when a Christian countries secretary of state thinks it's OK to murder 500,000 children through immoral sanctions it only confirms all you religious nuts are as bad as each other.
As though the U.S. is a "Christian" country (if such a thing can even exist, the two terms being mutually exclusive in this life).
But you are right. The Zionists use the cover of "Christianity" in the West in the same way that they use the cover of Wahabbist "Islam" in the Middle East and "Communism" in China.
And yes, they are all as bad as each other.
You mean the PROGESSIVE Secretary of State in the PROGRESSIVE administration? Aren't progressives "state worshipers"? And don't they persecute Christians and elevate Muslims?
Let me just ask, is it christians that are frothing at the mouth screaming to be able to murder unborn babies or is it progressives?
Progressives are a death cult, always have been always will be.
Grimaldus
I know what i mean't, Christians don't hold the moral high ground especially considering their actions in recent conflicts, they are the inventors of industrial scale murder through warfare.
A Christian Theocracy is just as bad as a Muslim or Jewish Theocracy.
As opposed to the Statist Atheists that killed over 100 million in the 20th Century like Stalin, Mao, and Hitler?
As for sheer numbers, the Statist Progressive Atheists are winning.
Just because you killed a few million less doesn't mean your team is any better.
Name a current Christian or Jewish Theocracy.
I can name current Muslim Theocracies.
Lol, try getting elected in the US or Isreal as an known atheist.
That secretary of state wasn't following the teachings of their religion. Murdering Islamists are.
Christian religious "nuts" who follow the teachings are pacifists.
"but when a Christian countries secretary of state"
There are only formerly Christian countries. Today's "Crusades" are strictly secular, and we are all in the path of them. The Middle East is a harbiger of the globe's future. But it's OK, there will be a "savior" who will clear this up - for a Faustian price.
@Rob Crash -- do you think that the complete destruction of Libya was Islamic terror? Or the complete destruction of Afghanistan? Or Iraq? Those are Islamic countries and the inhabitants don't appreciate being attacked from the air followed by Western fed killers attacking them in the streets. You wouln't like it either. None of us would, Islamic or anything else.
The Islamic country of Syria has been targeted for destruction but now they have allies with punch. Also the Europeans are getting annoyed with picking up the tab when DC decides to do some hard partying in other countries, so they are starting to say "no" when they get invited for some fun and games while trashing yet another society.
Rally cry to war with West!
currency wars will not be fought with just money bombs
We warned them in Tianjin, and twice in Shandong. They just wouldn't listen.

Nothing but shit piled higher and deeper at that site. VT a psyop against those trying to wake up.
How does one 'try' to wake up?
And no, you're wrong. Same shit as here, only more anti-zion. That doesn't mean they don't have good intel.
Case in point:
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2015/09/30/justice-minister-syria-will-try-...
Besides, I regularly check dozens of very different sites every day and hundreds every week. They vary in tone and content, but one thing is true: 95%+ of most of them are crap stories. You have to be discriminating enough to pick the gems from the trash. If you just check the same sites every day, you're not getting the full spectrum.
There aren't too many sites like globalresearch or strategic-culture around, so you gotta' dig.
You talk about waking up, but that can only be accomplished with an open mind.
Are you kidding?
Who wants to wake up to this Luciferian nightmare?
Touché.
Damn. Those UST must really be Explosive !!
The US did it.
I hope Jackie Chan is alright...
I doubt that all of those pictures are correct.....a package does not contain that much punch to do that kind of damage..that is more earthquake damge to me...but it seems to me they had the wrong address on todays package....and it was delivered late..they need Amazon Prime
Today is National Day in China and a couple of years ago I went out to a nightclub to see how they celebrate. It was a pretty big club and there were probably north of 1500 people there all getting wasted. Noisy, exciting and hot as fuck and I think a lot of drunken chinese people told me they loved me like a brother. But no trouble and it was one of the best nights I've ever had. Plus I woke up next to a really hot and hungover chick. I wish I was there again now.
Note for the US: don't fuck your citizens over more than you already are because you're at the prespice of shit going boom yourselves.
What do you expect, an absolute horrible communist fkhead gov't and gazillions of poor what could go wrong??
7 dead? LOL!!! Typical Chinese lie! The guy they arrested probably doesn't know how to do anything but look for food and work, let alone build bombs.
As far as i'm concerned, it's a long time coming. I just wish they'd target those at the top, or things those at the top hold dear. I could probably rethink all of this, but there is just no way to have a peaceful society by killing people left and right to keep them in line because you FUCKING SUCK. This is bound to happen.
If we start to see Chinese corporate suites, or now-shackled factories bombed, I'll begin to consider domestic unrest.
Until then...

Lived in china 6 years. Dont believe its a local. Someone is sending a message. Trying to stir up insurrection
TFJ's. As usual.
Isn't the gov't sending in thousands of Han chinese to help dilute the mostly Ughur population there? I smell a rat...like the ones that funded the Chechnyan terrorists when they inflammed the region back in the 90's. This time its the (muslim radical) Ughurs.
Not much rebar in that concrete it appears.
The world needs better security - chip all the citizens. It's for the children!
That's one way to get the Chinese population to move into the ghost cities they built up around the countryside..
Lets see, 51, there's your hidden 69, 17 where have we seen that number before associated with China, 7 for another cycle, and 33. Nope, no one could possibly know who did this, they didn't leave their mandatory signature all over it again. The numbers never lie, but the story sure blows.
Someone has started a war with China for not conforming to the rules of the current master. They disobeyed Washington.
China will blame it all on religious elements and start killing the weakest members of their society.
Insurance claims for their 'ghost towns.'
Come on gentlemen, this has alCIADuh, written all over it.
debt dumpers beware .. CIA gonna rock da house
did they get the patsy yet ... check
i see the ruskies bit in on syria ... lovely, now another war on terror that they can win ... oh ya, that war against terror alway produces a win .... NOT !!! ( idiots )
drug money from fafkergamistan fund terrorists and tah dah, another quagmire thats unwinable as long as you have fanatical idiots wanting to die ( check )
well, not a total loss for russia... they have a testing ground for killer AI robots ... R n D for the military complex .... GO !
Planet Sucko
The "official" government line is that they already caught the people responsible (but won't say who it was), and that it was a mental problem and someone taking revenge on society.
in other words, they are clueless, have caught noone, and can't even begin to comprehend the reason it happened.
'Lone gunman with mental problems', indeed.
It wouild not surprise me in the least if this is mostly real estate debt related. I have seen some bizarre things in China done in the name of financial failure disguised as somehting else.
This is not Ughur country. Up northwest of this province is...also on the border. Chinese are acutely aware of the several thousand Ughurs fighting with ISIS (and sponsored by the Turks, who have kinship with them). That is why China has ships calling on the port in Tartus, and why rumors of "Chinese military advisors" are surfacing. China and Russia both need to nip the terrorists at the root before they come home to spread mayhem (Russia is concerned about the several thousand Chechnyans/stan-ians who are fighting with ISIS who could come home and start fires in the republics that border Russia. )
Now how could the chinese have pissed anyone off? They seem such nice folks.
ZH
Everyone knows that a bomb won't explode if the bomber who made it is in the slammer.
Nobel's First Law of Explosives
Question:
What sort of mass bombing campaign does the Chinese government NOT censor the shit out of?
Answer:
One that they want you to know about.
Conclusion:
A widespread bombing campaign on "National Day" can only serve to strengthen the link between Party and the people in a time that is otherwise filled with signs of dissatisfaction with the way things are going.
All the Chinese masses who are home for the holidays now have something to talk about other than losing their jobs or watching their life savings fly out the window in one way or another.
I'm sure laid off workers turned into giant bomb making crazed motherfuckers did this...
Zero Hedge is a flea market for news.
Buyer beware.
Just wait until Assad gasses some Rooskies and Chinks....That's when the fun starts.
Perhaps either someone left a gate open at the FoxConn plant or it's foreign assets engaged in "cleative destluction"
