Authorities see no evidence to support Taliban's claim of responsibility; focus shifts to 'homegrown' terrorism; DHS says no sign of broader plot

New York police said Sunday they were hunting a man filmed leaving the scene of the attempted car bombing of Times Square as President Barack Obama vowed to track the perpetrators down.

Police announced several strong leads in their attempt to find out who left a Nissan Pathfinder SUV with a spluttering homemade bomb in the middle of the teeming entertainment and theater district.

A claim of responsibility by a Pakistani group Tehreek-e-Taliban was quickly dismissed as speculation mounted that a US-based or "homegrown" terrorist might have been responsible for the scare late Saturday.

"Although a Taliban bomb maker has claimed on the Internet... we have no evidence to support this claim," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.

Shocked that they would so quickly turn to "homegrown terrorism"

I don't think so.

240, c'mon man, you of all people are always so skeptical about anything that looks so hokey......wasn't the vehicle filled with fertilizer but "not the kind used in explosives...." Something smells rather fishy here.....

If they are commiting a crime or being investigated for commiting a crime,WHICH IS WHAT THE ARIZONA LAW SAYS,then it would be ok.

of course this shit looks shady as heck... and quite convenient for ignoring an oil spill now the size of puerto rico.

however, unless you posted how shady it was every time Bush invented a crisis when he needed one politically, you don't have room to bitch when obama does it.

and I got eye rolls when I said it's easy for the president to steer events to match what he needs politically...

The DC snipers were supposed to be white army guys with PTSD at first too remember? Look how that turned out? Two black muslims one being an illegal alien who should have been skinned alive.

well, this isn't just getbiggers wondering 'what if'.

This is Bloomberg and the police, detailing what they're seeing on video.

It appears to be some seriously amateurish shit.

Yes, but you were always quick to post anything about Bush, yet now you begrudginly admit it looks shady after you are called on it. See the difference? And although I think the 9/11 CT is garbage, there are many other things that have taken place under ALL our recent presidents that is very questionable at best.

That dude could be any of a million Iraqi's or Afghani's Ive seen...so angry white guy.....I wouldn't jump yet.

Because 240 is infected with the bs of watching too much TV, especially idiotic msnbc. He does not ev en realize he is doing it anymore.

Idiocy is now on auto-pilot for him.

Not to mention the fact that is was also the COMMUNIST holiday of May Day.

But I wont wait for 240 or any of the other left wing jerk offs on this site to at least consider the possibility that even of the guy was white, which doesnt matter, that he more likely than not was some far left communist pofs like those ELF people.

If it were cool to support a gay hispanic president with down syndrome...240 would jump that bandwagon as well. I think 240 suffers from a bit of misplaced white guilt...hence Barry support.

i've called the obama birth cert shady. I've called the timing of the oil spill (earth day?) shady. I call this one shady.

And the police haven't released the high quality tourist video of the dude running from the truck yet.

And, since I'm quoting the police and you're saying "what if...", well, you can't just accuse me of spewing BS. FOX & Friends morning are quoting bloomberg and police saying it's a white guy in his mid 40s. If you think it's an arab, please, by all means, call them up and give them your opinion.

Soul Crusher · « **Reply #16 on:** May 03, 2010, 06:54:44 AM »

No, Bloomberg said that there is a strong possibility that the guy in the video has nothing to do with it.

Stop lying.

where do you get the bullshit comment about white males being forced to show ID's?

you deserve an eye roll for that idiocy...

Lets say it turns out to be a white guy who is a right winger.Lets compare EXACTLY the fairness MSNBC will report on it as opposed to say the college professor who was an Obama fanatic and shot up her school.My bet is,if its a right winger tools like Ed Shultz will blame Rush,but never connected the professor with MSNBC.You wait and see.If its a lib,they will excuse him as a kook,if its a conservative they wilkl blame Rush.

Reports are the former owner of the SUV sold it a guy that looked either hispanic or middle eastern.

"240 is on the failsville express lately. "

Yes, I am obviously insane. I took the word of the NYPD and Bloomberg over the supposition of message board posters.

It's really you arguing with Bloomy and friends about whether or not it's a white guy in his 40s. You must have better video surveiliance than they do, that's cool.

They never said the 40 yo guy was a suspect, only that he was in the video and even bloomberg said he might have nothing to do with it at all.
