| Work Accident GAS MAIN BOMBING - DALLAS SUBURB |
| 2012-06-18 |
| Plano police believe the suspect was carrying an explosive device that blew up, causing minor damage to the gas main and leaving him critically injured. “We don’t know any of the whys,” police spokesman David Tilley said. “We don’t know why he was back there, what type of device he had. That’s what we’re trying to figure out.” That may have to wait until the suspect has recovered from the life-threatening injuries he suffered in the explosion. The man, who has yet to be identified, first told authorities that he was jogging and was struck by a hit-and-run driver, but that story quickly unraveled, Tilley said. “His injuries to his body are all on the front of his body,” he said. “If you get hit by a car, you’re going to have scratches, you’re going have road rash, you’re going to have something all over your body.” He remains hospitalized at Medical Center of Plano. Meanwhile, the Plano police bomb squad and FBI agents are scouring the area, and Parker Road has yet to reopen. Tilley said gas service in the area has not been affected because the utility company quickly switched to another regulatory system. |

| #11 FYI MEMRI.ORG > HIZB AL-TAHRIR AMERICA: SET TO HOLD JUNE 17 CONFERENCE IN ILLINOIS, ADVOCATES JIHAD, SAYS IRAN + SAUDI ARABIA ARE "MODERN, NON-EXPANSIONIST NATION-STATES", + HAVE THUS ABANDONED "THE DEFINITIVE [ISLAMIC] OBJECTIVE OF JIHAD" AS STIPULATED IN THE KORAN. IIUC, by inference an "Islamic/Islamist America" under the auspice of the Hizb al-Tahrir would be PRO-EXPANSIONIST VEE NON-ISLAMIC NATIONS??? ARTIC = HIZB AL-TAHRIR BANGLADESH, PAKISTAN have called for Military-led coups in their home countries. versus * TOPIX > AMERICA'S MARXIST [Marxist-Communist] PICNIC: WHY GOVERNMENT NO LONGER WORRIES ABOUT COMMUNISTS. Cold War = POTUS Reagan-era views, e.g. subjective profiling for real-or-potential Commie allegiances; versus the alleged Commie-born-n-raised "Obamunist" in the White House [dedicated Marxist-Commie family background + upbringing, education, influences]. COMMIES HAVE CHANGED THEIR DESCRIPTIVE LABELS, BUT NOT THEIR IDEOLOGY. Lest we fergit, 1990's CLINTONISM > RIGHTISM IS THE NEW LEFTISM, GOP-RIGHT IS THE NEW DEMOLEFT, FASCISM IS THE NEW COMMUNISM. |

| #3 If it didn't kill him, then I put my money on "incompetent". An Islamist would have carried it to the mall. This is mere sabotage...it's what WE would do, but we're not Islamists so the thought process is different. |

| #2 Most of the situations like this that I have read about is some dumb schmuck, pissed off at something and wants a little revenge but it too stupid to do it well. My bet is this dolt was mad at the gas company/town for raising rates/unemployment and wanted to send a message but blown himself up in the process. |
