Regarding the recent alleged mail bombs, Why would the FBI share a photo of a bomb publically during an "active investigation???" --here is quote I am sharing from a comment on a thread I was following.
"Having worked at Homeland Security I concur with the following comments:
Peggy Traeger Tierney A few observations from a former bomb disposal officer, me:
Proper pipe bombs don't have wires connected to both ends. That's dumb.
You can find timers/remote control receivers WAY smaller than whatever that white box is. A proper timer would best be stored inside the pipe, making it fully encapsulated. That thing is just silly looking.
"Hoax Devices" are FAR more common than real ones. In which case, we should ask ourselves what the motives of the "bomber" are and "who benefits?" Go ahead. Think deeply and critically.
Bottom Line: Whoever made that wanted it to be painfully obvious to anyone and everyone that it's a "bomb." This is nearly the same as a bundle of road flares wrapped together with an old-timey alarm clock ticking away.
The photo doesn’t appear to be taken by a bomb tech or crime scene investigator. Bad angle, poor lighting, etc. So if it’s being taken by a journalist... Why would they let them near a “live” pipe bomb???
As a former law enforcement officer, we would NEVER release images or ANY information about an alleged explosive device(s), details about how they arrived or anything like that...this would be a full black out, wide open investigation. This is propaganda folks.
The only people who would release these details are interested in making headlines and stealing narratives."
