The facts about the Christmas morning bomb in Nashville are not complicated. What is complicated is understanding who set off the bomb and why. That’s because this bombing does not match any other bombs that have exploded in the Western world. (snip) I cannot think of a single act of Muslim terrorism that did not have as its primary goal killing as many people as possible.
Unlike the Oklahoma City bombing, this bomb did not target a government building. (snip) What’s not enjoyable is realizing how seemingly easy it was for someone to do this – and again, I wonder if that wasn’t the message: Americans are vulnerable.
The author of this article thinks the message might be "Americans are vulnerable."
If that is the case, could this be an effort to keep people from going to D.C. to support the president on Jan. 6th?

Well, start with the obvious...who owned that RV? RV's aren't exactly the IED of choice for Muslim terrorists, or Antifa for that matter. They also don't warn their intended victims. And downtown Nashville isn't exactly a strategic target.
So that narrows the logical choice down to:
1) Suicide by someone tired of living in a van down by the river.
2) Out of work fireworks manufacturer angered by COVID shutdown of 4th of July show and getting rid of unsellable inventory.
3) Losing country singing contestant on "The Voice".

Reminds me of the Unabomber case. This bomb was sophisticated, like his. But the 'message' being sent doesn't make any sense.

If you believe the Intercept, AT&T does a lot of "government work". Also, what about disrupting the voting in GA? As far as Jan 6 in DC goes #1, I don't think the left cares about that. Their media pals will be hard at work either ignoring it or maligning the effort.

I'll accept the "vulnerable" premise. Look what the flu did to our country.

Antifa and BLM have run rampant for years with very little opposition. But those on the right who really know how to inflict violence, such as former special forces, have stayed out of the fight. Maybe until now. The site, the timing, the broadcast warning were all designed to avoid killing or maiming anyone. But the blast itself is tremendous. Whoever put this together knew what they were doing. It was clearly a message, and the message might have been to Biden/Harris and all their thug enforcers saying, "Don't tread on me!"

This explosion was a warning shot. The explosion wasn't intended to harm anyone. I believe its intent is to remind the American people of things to come. And I don't believe the FBI has the will to solve this crime. They are a waste of taxpayer dollars.

Not sure what to believe or who to trust. Sadly, I do not trust the FBI or any other arm of our compromised government. We may never know what really happened.

I think I agree this was a warning shot.
If its one of the usual suspects, we should hear more almost immediately, as they are all media hogs.
If this is a patriot -and I use that term as someone outraged by the recent election and willing to act - we won't hear anything more till Biden is confirmed Jan 6th.
Then, we may hear a lot more.
The next Revolution is coming. I'm not sure if anything will stop it, any more. God bless and save, America.

Don’t worry Biden has a plan, he just can’t remember where he tucked it away.

I think we are at the poi t where the folks that didn’t want to be bothered have reached point where they want to blow up what they see as a problem. I am thinking Media infrastructure will be targeted because of the false news they push. I think mobs will form and blue state executives and Soros funded bureaucrats will get a “citizen’s arrest” and face what many feel is their due justice.
Pray. I think Civil War 2.0 will be imminent if US Congress doesn’t reject swing state fraud. Just saying.

Saw a tweet about the Nashville stuff. Very interesting. I had already seen some stuff about Joe Biden’s brother-in-law and Staple Street.
The Nashville Rabbit Hole goes deep!
-AT&T got a contract to do forensic audit on Dominion voting machines and those machines were being moved to Nashville.
-The former owner of the ATT building in Nashville was Cerberus Capital Management.
-Dominion voting is owned by Cerberus. Cerberus is run by Staple Street Execs.
-Joe Biden's Bro in Law is the cofounder of Staple Street
-Staple street is run by former Cerberus Execs but also former Carlyle Group execs.
-Cerberus and Carlyle need no intro here on GLP.
-Remember who benefited from MH370 disappearance? Freescale Semiconductor got the patent as a result of the 4 Chinese dudes dying.
Freescale is owned by Cerberus.

As I read this article my first thought was that this bomb was set off by someone upset about Joe Biden stealing the election. In particular, someone trying to communicate to those in authority that there WILL be violence if they continue down this path. Unfortunately, if that was the case those to whom this message was directed will not take it seriously.

OK, let's go with this as a "message" demo for the moment. That has some interesting possibilities.
For one, the mundane and snarky-comedian-ridiculed vehicle of choice for deplorables, the RV, becomes a revolutionary symbol. Don't believe me? Organize a "Park-In" of a hundred RVs around Nancy Pelosi's palatial, walled-in compound in San Francisco. For that matter, when Congress returns to DC organize a "Thousand RV Parade" around the Capitol. Not illegal. But just imagine all the wet Depends in Congress and SCOTUS wondering which RVs (or how many) are ones filled with something other than bad chili recipes and Willie Nelson CDs.

A possible test drive of what is to come if the election is overturned?

It's a warning directed at the Biden fraud victory. If non-justice Roberts feared ANTIFA then he better be thinking of the 70+ million patriots taking to the streets if this scam is not dealt with. Past January 6 if Biden is sworn in there won't be a country or any use for a Supreme Court. Choose wisely.

On the surface it appears there was no official target. But there's ALWAYS a target and this one could easily have been the ATT "Data Center" which is a hub for NSA communication surveillance, among other things. A cursory internet search will confirm that. The recorded RV evacuation warning indicates that the intent of the bomb was NOT to claim as many lives as possible, but rather the opposite. So one can reasonably consider that a possible motive for a terrorist or fanatical organization might be to bring attention to and condemn the NSA's use of the ATT Data Center for communication surveillance.

How about a domestic terrorist group that did not want to risk killing people of their own race? The publicity would crush them.

There is something very strange about this. The person or persons who did this were trying not to kill people. So it wasn’t ISIS. This would be hard to pull off alone unless the bomber had special training. There are pretty obvious places to start looking (as soon as the FBI finish their holiday break).

Interesting points, #13. But, why would anyone name a legitimate company after a monstrous beast from myth? Just something to ponder. I would not think company's founders were to be trusted, unless they needed to guard something hellacious? In myth, Cerberus guarded hades, i.e., prevented anyone from escaping.
Do you sometimes feel as though we are trapped with a aperture slowly closing, and the monsters of Hades shriek with satisfaction? (speaking metaphorically. I see myth as a Greek lit. prof. said, as a culture or society telling a truth about itself to itself.)
I'm inclined to agree with those thinking this is some kind of dry run.
We still do no know why Paddock, shooter in Las Vegas a mere 3 years ago, planned and carried out a dreadful mass casualty shooting, how he was able to arrange the feat "on his own."
Sad truth, there are insane people on the loose who get great satisfaction plotting and scheming the most dastardly things, mass scale, or individual murders and mayhem.
No one should let their guard down, should this be a test run, and next time there is no time to escape.
See something, say something, and get to safety.
Creepy, though. A creepy voice.

Major disruption of emergency communications across a huge area here.
ATT hub in a building rated to withstand a bomb blast. What else was or still is in there?
Deaths were obviously not the goal. That is a busy downtown tourism center. Restaurants, bars, shops, apartments. Deliveries in and out constantly. But picking probably the least busy day and time of the year and then blaring a warning to leave the area, something in or under that building was the goal.
Access or disruption is my guess. And I expect no answers from the treasonous FBI. And nary a tweet from President Trump about it, which I find odd as well. I think we are in for another Las Vegas shooter investigation. The "answers" the public will get will be laughable.

Some form of government outfit might be responsible if the AT&T building was involved in any way with the voting machines used in the Pres. election. Seems far fetched, but so was the thought of government involvement in John F. Kennedy's death. Now, not so much. Both Trump and to some extent Kennedy were upsetting the apple cart that is Washington D.C. Hiding and destroying evidence is a powerful motive for bad deeds.

Given the cities that are currently having an AT&T outage, Atlanta is top of the list right now. Given the politics still being decided, I am beginning to think this was not about killing people, but screwing around some more with the votes/electors. But OTOH, if it had killed people, like the remains they found, they will just blame it on some radical thinking extremist of some kind.

#2, he RV could also have been stolen. That is a typical M.O. of the European terrorists when they conduct their crimes.
The RV is a luxury symbol to Americans. What better vehicle with which to protest western decadence?
Loading it up with propane tanks is unique, and will no doubt cause ATF to restrict their sale to citizens.

Even really crazy people don't go to all the time, expense, and personal hazard of blowing up a random building in a small town like Nashville without some kind of reason. Terrorists prefer to kill lots of people and that kind of rules them out in this case. Unless somebody had a real problem with their phone bill it seems odd that they would pick a large AT&T switch facility. What was real was the tweet that was sent out four days before the blast indicating that AT&T was going to receive the Dominion Voting machines in Nashville to do forensic analysis on them. Since AT&T doesn't generally do this kind of work there must be more to the story. Then we find out that the building was owned by Cerebus Capital and the owners of Dominion Systems were former board members of this company. What else was in that building that required the FBI to have the FAA issue a NOTAM around the facility making the airspace from surface to 3000ft a National Defense Restricted Zone?
I don't believe in conspiracies but there are no coincidences either.

What's so unique about it? The bomb was in a large vehicle and it went BOOM! The warning message points to domestic terrorism, which the democrats have been supporting openly for almost a year. We won't hear a word about it for months and then Donald Trump's right wing conspirators will be blamed.

For all you posters that think this was no specific target. The placement of that RV beside beside THE major ATT communications HUB for the SE US is no coincidence. I am sitting in a Resturant on their WiFi because my internet and cell service is down. This is a test run folks.

The bombing was meant to take out the AT&T building which holds the Dominion voting machines.
