Fertilizer-bomb fears spur search for man with missing fingers

Well this won't make any of the world leaders coming here worried in the least.

they used the fertilizer scare to spread fear before the Olympics to.......It justifies their high security cost and justifies a police state atmosphere..........

Meaning you think that its a government agent who made the purchase to stoke the fires or they are blowing a legit purchase out of proportion?

use your own imagination any thing is possible with governments these days

........or somebody's imagination.

I have no doubt the security forces are up to all sorts of dirty tricks. But I think it's particularly heinous of them to cut off two fingers of their agent's hand and shoot him in the leg just so the description of him would be more memorable.

lol

While it needs checking into naturally lets look at what 50 year old white guys would be buying fertilizer? Um, farmers maybe? And the injuries and limp could be consistent with a farming accident.

Or if you're incline to believe digger's line of thinking..........it was RCMP agent Dudley Do-Right who's had a couple of misfires with his revolver.

The missing fingers is sign of someone who has screwed around with HME (home made explosives), mainly a VERY sensitve compound called TATP(triacetone triperoxide). TATP can be used to initiate a large amounts of less sensitve explosives.

And it's a sure sign of someone getting their hand caught in a EGA ( elevated grain auger ) or a glove in a PTO. ( power take off )

How the hell he succeeded to buy 1,500 KG of ammonium nitrate WITHOUT anyone wondering that it could be for a bomb. That's a big failure of our anti-terrorist agency.

He bought 1500 kg of . In the old days, farmers used that to grow food. Anti Terror agencies aren't concerned about the militant farmer suicide bomber organizations. The failure is we suspect anyone buying fertilizer to be terrorists.

So, they win.

Funny as hell. A 50 yr old white guy in farm country buys some fertilizer and holy shit, it's a friggin potential armageddon.
Yet, when I called the RCMP about some Arabic dude with around 750 kgs of fertilizer for a lawn the size of a postage stamp, smack dab in the middle of a city, no one did shit.
