Seconds apart? What happened to the other timeframes that were posted all over the world earlier, one of which -- the temporary official one, I guess -- emphatically declared that the blasts were 26 minutes apart?
Excuse me, but doesn't this change beg for an explanation respecting the difference in change here? Sans deep conspiracy talk. Sans the Netanyahu connection.

And don't we have to ask whether or not we want to have much to do with so-called activists who aren't asking such questions? Educated, concerned fellow-citizens. What is this lack of inquiry? Duh deluded domain dubbed investigative reporting is one thing. No curiosity from the Peanut Gallery is another. "The explosions were so destructive that authorities haven't been able to identify a single body
and were depending on fingerprints, dental records and DNA analysis, detectives said Saturday." Another excerpt from the same report, circulated worldwide, which is apparently escaping scrutiny. Now we're also to buy the notion that the explosives were "high" ones, not the homemade ones previously...labeled as such. Why exactly did The Powers decide to change the script? Certainly no one believes two such fundamental elements in
an investigation can be fudged so...legitimately. So quickly. So safely, free from prodding minds. Or do they? They do. Without so much as an ungroggy interrogative. Good boys and girls. We have a clean table. WHO TABLED THE INITIAL TIMEFRAME!?!?!? I'm afraid I'm worlds apart from anyone who reads this and doesn't contact me about the above, the why. |

London Bawling:
Six Things to Consider Immediately
by Richard Oxman, July 7, 2005
1. Why was there no "closing" of mass transit following the first blast? Look at the time differential between the first and third/fourth explosions. This is particularly curious, considering that Israelis, apparently ( ), had prior warnings of imminent attacks (plural).
2. Should Bono put on a London Underground Concert -- the largest ever -- with or without Geldorf?
3. What exactly would "the public" (or anyone else, for that matter) DO...if it could be proved -- as definitively as some of the sensitive WMD revelations -- that someone other than "the enemy" was responsible for the blasts?
4. Does anyone need any more "proof" than watching Homeland Security Head Chertoff's immediate response to the horror...to know that we are totally insecure, and will remain so, as long as something fundamental is not addressed? Mike talked...colors.
5. Is it true that The Powers are talking about switching the Olympics to Paris now, now that London seems so insecure?
6. What might have been the difference...in the response...if Moscow, New York, Rome, Cairo and Los Gatos, California had been hit simultaneously?

But mostly I'm afraid that a lot of people --do I have that many readers?-- will throw out the question: "Why does all this make you feel worlds apart?" Special note for your kind consideration: Look at how Paisley Dodds of the Associated Press put it: "Transit officials originally said the blasts occurred over a 26-minute span, but computer software that tracked train locations and
electric circuits subsequently determined the first blast shattered the rush-hour commute at 8:50 a.m in Aldgate station, east London, with the next two erupting within 50 seconds." Oh, officials got it wrong initially, whilst the computers were somehow...what(?)...not functioning...at a time when it was crucial to establish a timeline? Then...what(?)...the software kicked in...after mucho hours? Like, a day late? Hey, I'll bet that if the officials could claim that the bus was hooked up to the
same computers, they'd be selling us on that explosion also occurring within seconds of the others. For...it's not a pretty picture that the officials didn't notify ALL those in transit to...change plans. Mode of transportation? I mean, why aren't we hearing about which subway and/or bus and/or train officials were notified...when? Let me know if you find something on any of that. By following this link, you'll see the lengths to which the UK officials went -- nothing comparable needed in the U.S., I guess -- to convince the public that all is present and accounted for under their watchful gaze. "Timing is everything," as they say in comedy.
Richard Oxman is contemplating a tweak in direction, perhaps a number of degrees away from dueleft@yahoo.com ...wherever that might lead. There is a locus of much less fear. His recent writing is at www.oxtogrind.org.
