so who owns the mercedes?

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

seems to me that would be the first thing that would be known.

(the car involved in london "plot")

1. It's still on fire

Longest car fire in history. And until they put that fire out, they can't see who it belongs to.

Gives us all more time to worry about terrorists.

8. Been on fire all AM & into the PM, a very long fire, same intensity OR same footage, over & over

No mention that it is footage shot earlier - they're playing this one up. And notice all the talking points: "Resembles Al Qaeda" & "Al Qaeda inspired" are 2 descriptors used by the "experts"

7. Blackwater?

[Bucky]

11. My God, of course! Someone call Scotland Yard and suggest this to them!

My first assumption when I heard about this was that it was stolen and almost certainly wiped down for fingerprints. It's an amateur job, and thus not the work of an Iraq-trained terrorist. It's a local yokel job. But as with Iraq, every screw up is a learning experience... every year in this madness makes a real, competant, and devastating attack a little more likely.

Welcome to your new job, Mr Brown.
