Bombing in Downtown Nashville

[james bond]

EMP attacks are a REAL possibility --

"It’s not something many Americans think about: an Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP) attack on the nation’s electric grid. However, both peer competitors (Russia and China), and emerging threat countries, like North Korea and Iran, are perfecting this strategic weapon.

The White House is taking this potential threat seriously. On March 26, President Trump issued “Executive Order on Coordinating National Resilience to Electromagnetic Pulses” in an effort to assess the risks of such an attack to critical U.S. infrastructure. Preliminary studies indicate that a catastrophic EMP event could cripple the U.S. economy and its military.

EMPs are pulses of energy that can be emitted from the blast of a nuclear weapon, portable devices like high power microwave weapons (HPMWs), or even certain natural phenomenon. These powerful pulses – when interacting with the Earth’s magnetic field – have the ability to damage electronic and electrical equipment such as computers, cell phones, transformers and transmission lines, as well as critical communications infrastructure. Even worse, the design of America’s electric grid means that damage to certain critical substations could cause cascading failures across the entire country.

While the threat of an electromagnetic pulse has been around since the first nuclear bomb (all nuclear denotations generate an EMP field), our heavy reliance on technology and the interconnectedness is unprecedented. The Commission to Assess the Threat from Electromagnetic Pulse Attack has warned since 2001 that essential U.S. infrastructure is at risk to an EMP event, stating that a high-altitude EMP (HEMP) attack would be “an existential threat to the survival of the United States and its allies.” An HEMP would likely involve the detonation of a nuclear weapon miles above the United States, where kinetic damage would be relatively harmless but the EMP effects would be at their most potent."

An electromagnetic pulse (EMP) event - either through natural occurrence or deliberate attack - could cripple the U.S. electric grid and bring the economy to a halt. The White House is taking necessary steps to mitigate this threat.

Hmmmm, so first there is the explosion, and then as a result of that you get an EMP generated from the explosion ??? Isn't that sort of present in all explosions to some degree or does it have to be created that way ??? Yes we had the bomb explosion, but was the detonation enough to create a EMP as a result of the explosion ??

Did you miss the noticeable flash and missile trail before the explosion?

EMP aint shit !

Lol, you don't have any idea if they are looking for anyone else or not.

Apparently, everyone but you knows. Per usual.

 

[james bond]

Another message box similar to RV bombing. WTF?

 

[james bond]

Here's the story.

Road Near Nashville Closed Over Suspicious Truck - Breitbart

Authorities in Tennessee have shut down a road east of Nashville after stopping a box truck that they said had been playing audio “similar to what was heard” before a recreational vehicle exploded in downtown Nashville on Christmas Day.

www.breitbart.com

 

[skye]

Now apparently they think it was a suicide bomber.

....................................................................................................

That's what the fake news, the mainstream media, wants us to believe.

But it wasn't a suicide bomber, or an angry person or mentally ill, etc.... Rest assured of that.

 

[james bond]

What was the motive tho?

For those who doubt it was an EMP:

'Deputies said they had also evacuated residents in the area as they continued to investigate.

Before the RV blew up, it blared a recorded warning calling for people to evacuate, and then the 1964 song “Downtown” by Petula Clark. Sheriff’s officials did not specify what the box truck was playing.

1:15 p.m.

Nashville Police say a Tennessee man named Anthony Quinn Warner is under investigation in connection with the Christmas Day bombing that rocked downtown Nashville.

Metro Nashville Police Department Spokesman Don Aaron confirmed Warner’s identity Sunday. Federal and state investigators are trying to determine who set off a bomb inside a recreational vehicle Friday morning, injuring three people and damaging more than 40 businesses. They are also working to identify human remains found at the scene.

Separately, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press that federal investigators have started examining Warner’s digital footprint and financial history. They are also examining a recent deed transfer of a home in suburban Nashville.

The official could not discuss the case publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

The official said forensic analysts are reviewing evidence collected from the blast site to try to identify the components of the explosives and are also reviewing information from the U.S. Bomb Data Center for intelligence and investigative leads.

Federal agents are examining a number of potential leads and pursuing several theories, including the possibility that an AT&T building was targeted. The bomb caused damage that affected communications in several states.

9:30 a.m.

AT&T says it has been rerouting service to other facilities as the company works to restore a building that sustained heavy damage after a bomb exploded in downtown Nashville on Christmas Day.

The company said in a statement Sunday morning that mobile service has been restored to many areas that were affected by the blast. The company says it is bringing in resources to help recover affected wireline voice and data services and expects to have 24 additional trailers of disaster recovery equipment at the site by the end of the day.

The building’s commercial power connections were damaged and forced offline after a bomb planted in a recreational vehicle parked nearby detonated Friday morning. Customers lost communications not only in Tennessee but in states including Kentucky, Alabama and Georgia.

The company says power has been has been restored to four of the building’s floors. While three feet of water was pumped out of the building’s basement on Saturday, access to the lower floors is still limited. Elevators, beams and columns and the building’s facade were also damaged.

CNN also reports: “Investigators looking into the Christmas morning explosion in Nashville now believe the blast was likely the result of a suicide bombing, according to two law enforcement sources with direct knowledge of the investigation.”

WKRN adds: “The mid-1960s classic “Downtown” by Petula Clark played from the RV parked in downtown Nashville prior to the explosion that damaged more than 40 buildings and injured at least three people Christmas morning.”'

As far as i have read, the only real "damage" he did the the AT&T equipment was to damage its power and communication lines leaving the building. They were back up and running in hours.

Saw that. No explosives found.

 

[skye]

I don't know what happened, I have no idea....this is just another posibility...

I quote:

"White hats located the bomb before it was placed in it's target detonation. Firefight ensued, bad actors killed. Bomb unsafe to handle in normal means. Controlled detonation with countdown and warning to minimize harm to populace."

In other words, it was a terror attack that was intercepted.


Then again, who knows what happened.

That was NOT a controlled detonation.

Nobody was killed....there WAS a warning.

When do you get warnings in terrorists attacks? again what do i know.

It was still a terrorist attack. Lots of people out of work, and lost businesses.

Agree, terrorist attacks aren't defined by loss of life - targeting property or infrastructure can still be a terrorist attack. A lot depends on motive.

Its NOT terrorism if the motive is unknown and nobody makes a claim. Look up the definition.

I agree.
