The 7 July 2005 bombings on London transport used triacetone triperoxide<\/a> (TATP), a crude, unstable explosive made from hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid and acetone. TATP doesn’t actually burn; it rapidly decomposes, releasing massive amounts of oxygen, creating an explosive effect. You’ll note that the double-decker bus bombed on 7 July 2005 didn’t have any fire damage.<\/p>\n

TATP is certainly explosive enough to blow a hole in the side of an airplane, but the handling limits on TATP would make it nearly impossible to get aboard in precursor component liquid form. TATP is a crystalline solid when correctly made. One would not be practically able to make TATP from liquid acetone, sulfuric acid and H2O2 aboard an aircraft, making the ban on passengers carrying liquids a bit silly. Watch out for the guy with several bottles of lquids, an Esky<\/a> and a few bags of ice, though.<\/p>\n

When mixing TATP, the temperature of the solution must be kept below 10C at all times. If the temperature is not controlled correctly, the mixture either will not explode (as in the failed 21 July 2005 bombing attempts in London) or may explode prematurely.<\/p>\n

The Register makes a convincing case<\/a> for the recently exposed trans-Atlantic aircraft bombing plot<\/a> being a complete furphy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So, just who<\/em> is actually waging a terror war on the peoples of the US and UK? Is it Al Qaeda or the US and UK governments?<\/p>\n

UPDATE:<\/font><\/strong> Read Craig Murray’s take on the timing of the terror plot<\/a> and who stood to gain. Most of the alleged bombers didn’t have passports- none had bought airline tickets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
