Its not just the tin foil hat - yesterday morning between 11 a.m. and 12.30 - there were police helicopters tracking the Long Island Railroad tracks from Queens County straight out to Long Island. My son has soccer games Saturday morning and I am a helicopter aviation buff. Without known anything about pipe bombs or any problem, I commented to myself that it was unusual, to the point that I never saw it before, that a police helicopter flying fairly low, tracked the LIRR train tracks from where we were playing soccer at about the Queens/Nassau line and then 45 minutes later came back along the tracks and into NYC when I was driving home. You can tell its a LEO chopper by the pitch and noise of the engine and the rotors and you can tell iit was actually doing something because there is some type of FLIR or radar device on the front which lights strong strobe lights which blink off the front of the chopper. Those are only turned on if the chopper is actively doing something. Years ago there was a law enforcement shooting by the Courts in Westchester County NY and I saw three helicopters with these strobes turned on. What flew over Long Island was blinking the same thing. Also, for the past 2 weeks - there has been massive police presence in Long Island Railroad main terminals, in the City Hall and downtown Manhattan Court areas and such and that Homeland Security had a dozen officers with dogs and fully armed at the Staten Island ferry terminal last Monday. I've never seen so much security and again, remarked to myself that something was going on.

"The cause of the blast late on Saturday in Chelsea remains unclear. Mayor Bill de Blasio described it as "intentional" but said that there were no known links to terror."

Uh? So someone set off a pressure cooker bomb just for a laugh?
Of course it's terrorism, but they just don't want to admit it because it would play into Trump's hands.

[Praetor Lupus]

It's just been announced as a bomb by Gov. Andrew Cuomo. I'm on my phone so can't link but was on the BBC.

Took the long enough to realise that dumpsters and pressure cookers don't spontaneously explode.

Addressing reporters on Sunday near the site of the explosion, Mr Cuomo said: "A bomb exploding in New York is obviously an act of terrorism."

But he said that, as yet, no international organisation such as so-called Islamic State had claimed they were behind it.

Paul Joseph Watson/Info Wars video on the incidents.

If I put on my tinfoil hat:
The German news outlets did not report the stabbing, NJ and the other incident until the Berlin local vote booths were closed at 6 pm UTC+1. The stabbing was reported 10 minutes before 6 pm. It happend at the same time as the New York bombing, didn't it?
They did report the "explosions" of New York in the afternoon though. AfD currently is at 11-12%, and Berlin will get a left wing coalition.

A 911 caller warned of further explosions right after the blast that rocked Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood and injured 29 people, The Post has learned.

“I’m looking at the explosion down the block. There will be more,” the unidentified male said, claiming to be standing at 23rd Street and Seventh Avenue in the aftermath of the terrifying incident, according to law-enforcement sources Sunday.

Investigators believe the blast was the result of a home-made, pressure-cooker bomb similar to an unexploded device found later on 27th Street, sources said.

In another new wrinkle, a hand-written letter, a portion of which is in Arabic, was found inside a plastic bag that held the second device, sources said.

Cops were interviewing two men who claim to have spotted a potential person of interest in the case, sources said.

The witnesses were dining at the Krush bar and grill on 32nd Street about a half-hour before the 8:30 p.m. Saturday explosion when they saw an Arab-looking man who was carrying a suitcase and appeared out of place, sources said.

The men called 911 around 11 a.m. Sunday to report what they had seen and were brought to Manhattan for questioning, sources said.

Investigators have obtained surveillance video of a person placing the unexploded device, sources said.

It was found by an older woman who was phoned by a friend checking on her in the wake of the explosion, sources said.

The woman went outside her home and noticed the bomb, then called 911.

Given that they have surveillance video, it sounds like there is a good chance they'll be able to identify him relatively soon, and hopefully catch him soon afterwards.

For all RVF guys in NYC, stay alert and watch your back.

Once again, carrying gun(s) saves lives... One of these "2d-amendment people" the Left always mocks - and wants to disarm-, shot the terrorist:

http://heavy.com/news/2016/09/jason-falc...ook-photo/

"Jason Falconer was identified as the off-duty police officer who shot and killed the St. Cloud mall stabber.

"Falconer was hailed as a hero in a news conference by St. Cloud police chief Blair Anderson. The police chief identified Falconer in a press conference on the afternoon of September 18.

Anderson said nine people were stabbed at Crossroads mall on September 17. Previously, authorities had said there were eight stabbing victims; all are expected to survive. Falconer, who was off duty and is still a police officer, then shot and killed the suspect, who was identified on Sunday as Dahir Adan. "

"The mall assault ended when the attacker was shot and killed by Jason Falconer, an off-duty cop from another jurisdiction, St. Cloud Police Chief William Blair Anderson said. Falconer shot the assailant as the man lunged at him with a knife. Mayor David Kleis said the attacker got up and was shot again three times before finally expiring."


(Coincidentally, falconers often name their female hawks, Isis, because: "Isis is depicted as the mother of Horus, the falcon-headed deity")

[HighSpeed_LowDrag]

Apparently ISIS has claimed responsibility for the Minnesota mall mass stabbing, but not the NYC or NJ bombings.

Speculative, but for those who know the city, note that that the block where the Arab looking guy was spotted walking south (32nd Street and 7th Ave) is about 1 block away from Penn Station.

Earlier that morning, there was a pipe bomb placed in a trash can that exploded in Seaside Park, NJ (luckily no one was hurt). It strains credulity to believe that these two incidents are not related (yes, the bombs were of a different type but so what? Is there a law that prevents a self-styled bomber from making and trying out different types of devices?)

If it's the same guy, it would make sense that he traveled from New Jersey to NYC, disembarked at Penn Station, and then walked south for a few blocks to place the other two devices, one of them also in a dumpster. I assume NYPD cops would be able to reach the same obvious conclusions.

[RIslander]

I see a number of possibilities from these two bombings:

1. Bomber is an amateur Muslim terrorist
2. Bombs were a test to evaluate the police response
3. The bombings were political in nature. They were placed in such a way to cause fear but not death. This could lead to two options:
3a. Placed by someone from the Left with the intent to blame Right Wing Extremists
3b. Placed by someone on the right to blame Muslims, cause fear and bring votes to the RNC.

CHELSEA, Manhattan (WPVI) --
NEW DEVELOPMENT: Law enforcement officials tell ABC News the News Jersey device and the one that exploded in New York both were set off with cell phones. The unexploded possible device in New York, on 27th Street, also had a cell phone connected to it.

However, the FBI and officials in both New York and New Jersey insist the blasts are being treated as "separate investigations." One official told ABC News: "Just because you have one thing in common, doesn't mean the devices are similar."

In fact, the devices look very different: The New Jersey device was pipe bombs, and New York was obviously not.

Right, two devices placed in trash cans and detonated by cell phones on the same day in two places within an hour and a half train ride of each other cannot possibly be related, because one was a pipe bomb and the others were based on pressure cookers. No bomber has ever used more than one kind of device, so we can safely establish that there is no connection.

One can only hope that these "officials" don't believe their own bullshit and that the two investigations are not, in fact, being treated separately. Certain kinds of stupidity are beyond what can be tolerated even for one moment.

And we also have a machete attack on a cop in Calgary at Marlborough Mall.

Quote:

Calgary police officer remains in hospital after machete attack at Marlborough Mall

A member of the Calgary Police Service remained in hospital Sunday in serious but stable condition after he was severely injured in a machete attack at Marlborough Mall Saturday afternoon.

The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team has since taken over the investigation into the officer’s role in the incident, which unfolded early Saturday afternoon.

The incident started at around 2:10 p.m. MT when police were called to a complaint of a man causing a disturbance near the Marlborough LRT Station. The suspect, a 20-year-old man, was found hiding behind a dumpster. When he was approached by police, the suspect ran into the Marlborough Mall Sears store.

“I was coming off the bus to go on the train and I saw an altercation and all of a sudden a guy was chasing some people with a knife and he ran into the mall and a bunch of cops showed up,” Kayla Perrin, who witnessed part of the ordeal, said Saturday.

Officers followed the suspect into the mall where officers said the man pulled out a machete. Susan D. Hughson, the executive director of ASIRT, said the police officer used his Taser on the suspect but “it appeared to have no observable effect on the man.”

When the officer pulled out his gun, the suspect struck him with a machete, Hughson said Sunday.

The suspect was then shot by the officer. He was taken to hospital and underwent emergency surgery. He remained in hospital Sunday in serious but stable condition.

The officer was taken to hospital with what Hughson called “significant and severe” injuries.

Hughson said ASIRT has good surveillance video of the events that unfolded inside the Sears store.

“Some witnesses have referenced a machete earlier,” she said. “When he’s in the store, however, you can see him pull a machete from a sheath. That’s part of the unfolding events in the Sears store. It wasn’t visible, obviously visible, when he entered the store.

No name or description of machete-wielding attacker given. I wonder why.

Cool machete though.



Wonder if he wants to bring it to the White House.

Looks like authorities are already retreating from that assessment:



On a sidenote, I would suggest that the thread be retitled to cover all three of the attacks in NYC, NJ, and Minnesota.
