Fat Haggis Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Actually, the Thai press has been reporting consistently that the government says it was a pipe bomb (homemade) containing TNT (not C4). Try to inform yourself better before posting. Pipe bomb big enough to make a blast like that would be the size of the sewage mains. That's military grade explosives. TNT is a military explosive... It's more commonly used in the commercial world, rather than the military, although it's used inside shells and handgrenades but with a combination of other explosives.

Carmine6 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Suspect photo. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/thailand/11807583/Explosion-rocks-Bangkok-close-to-Erawan-shrine-with-reports-of-casualties-live.html Not just a photo. Watch the 9.22 video. He sits down with the backpack on, takes the straps off, then seems to drop it behind the bench or under the bench right next to one of the concrete fence posts. Seems like then acts like he's taking a photo. Then leaves and heads to the sidewalk. Edit: Since a different camera picks up his leaving, there may have been some period of time in between the first section of video and his leaving. The 8.31 post shows him further up Ratchadamri, which would be after that video was taken.

BoristheBlade Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 This has muslim extremist written all over it. The Muslim situation is a worldwide problem and MUST be illuminated immediately for the sake of mankind. u wanna nuke them all? IF this is a muslim bomb, it's another sign of a problem that is sweeping the world, in my opinion the mulsim extrimeiest problem MUST be dealt with.....extriemest muslems are at war and anyone who says they are not is burying their heads in the sand.

Jingthing Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Well, it seems unlikely it is Islamic extremist related but it's possible. For Islamic Jihad groups like ISIS Thailand isn't exactly a prime target and Southern Thai Muslim separatists have not in the past bombed Bangkok (which doesn't mean they haven't here or never will but it's a clue). I suppose the Chinese Uighar issue could be a third Islam related possibility but I don't think it fits their pattern.

BoristheBlade Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Well if the recent attacks all over the world including France, Sweden, Egypt, India, UK, Turkey, Tunisia etc etc arn't a warning to the whole world, I don't know what is. The rational and decent Muslim nations are now realising it is a problem, hence the Actions of Turkey, Iraq, Egypt and Syria. I just hope the western nations would get involved a lot more.
