Trailer with 350 lbs of exposives stolen....
I almost posted on LBN, because the story was posted today on "Whatreallyhappened.com" but the actual story came out two days ago...http://www.thenewmexicochannel.com/news/2667309/detail.html

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Federal and local authorities are investigating the theft of 350 pounds of explosives from a company west of Albuquerque.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Department said seven 50-pound bags of ammonium nitrate fuel oil and blasting agent were stolen from Titan Energy.

snip:


Authorities warn the stolen items can be dangerous and are clearly marked as explosives. It is the same type of explosive material that was used in the Oklahoma City bombing.


snip:

This is the kind of stuff that makes me really nervous.... BTW, has that stolen airliner ever been found

1. Not long after 9/11 there was a wherehouse in Texas that lost
something like 700 pounds of explosives as well. Remember that?

3. Did they ever find the bomb from that A-10 warthog with the crazy pilot..?
the one that crashed it into a mountain in Colorado- IIRC, they never recovered the 500lb. bomb it was carrying.

5. OMG I was just there I got back Tuesday.
I flew into Albuquerque and drove to Santa Fe to stay for several days but I didn't watch the news or read the paper. I was too busy having a good time. I guy on the plane told me that there are a lot of government agents in Albuquerque.

6. The old fertilizer and furnace oil bomb......
farmers in the midwest have to keep a close watch on their stores of anhyrdrous ammonia, because it's used in meth manufacture - the drug of choice in farming communities throughout the midwest.

7. ANFO is a really poor...
Explosive, but it gained notoriety from the Murrah bombing. Now, what is generally left unsaid, but has not been left unsaid is what else was in that bomb:

Nitromethane. Hydrazine. With some propane gas, in the mix, to add a certain piquancy and body.

Google up Nitromethane. Do the same with Hydrazine. Read about it. The fact that they were used *together*, in that bomb, is either an utterly weird coincidence or a very telling clue about who designed that bomb. Think "Drag Racing in The late 60s, early 70s".

I find that there are few coincidences in this life.

A very telling bit of information. I am surprised some smart grunt investigator did not come up with that connection.

8. It's like the Bermuda triangle...
New Mexico, that is!

I remember a story about six months ago about paperwork from an energy company (unocal or shell?) being unearthed in SE New Mexico that tied-in with Titan Energy because it was speculated that it might contain evidence that would alter bankruptcy proceedings favourably for Titan Energy.

Then a van with boxes of files was stopped to the west of that area and the drivers were Israeli citizens without legitimate American visas. I had no luck googling to get the right information but I remember this.

hmmm...does Titan just have bad luck? and what really goes-on at Roswell, anyway?
