True but i would have thought it you were going to blow things up the last thing you would do is have brightly coloured animated LEDs catching everyones attention?  If you were serious surely you would want them out of site?

Assume nothing is one of the first things the teach people dealing with explosives.

Well, if you can make a pen into a bomb, you can pretty much turn any man made object into a bomb.

Chapter 3: The current position: 1998-2002

1. This chapter sets out what we know of Saddam's chemical, biological, nuclear and ballistic missile programmes, drawing on all the available evidence. While it takes account of the results from UN inspections and other publicly available information, it also draws heavily on the latest intelligence about Iraqi efforts to develop their programmes and capabilities since 1998. The main conclusions are that:

    *
      Iraq has a useable chemical and biological weapons capability, in breach of UNSCR 687, which has included recent production of chemical and biological agents;
    *
      Saddam continues to attach great importance to the possession of weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missiles, which he regards as being the basis for Iraq's regional power. He is determined to retain these capabilities;
    *
      Iraq can deliver chemical and biological agents using an extensive range of artillery shells, free-fall bombs, sprayers and ballistic missiles;
    *
      Iraq continues to work on developing nuclear weapons, in breach of its obligations under the Non-Proliferation Treaty, and in breach of UNSCR 687. Uranium has been sought from Africa that has no civil nuclear application in Iraq;
    *
      Iraq possesses extended-range versions of the SCUD ballistic missile in breach of UNSCR 687, which are capable of reaching Cyprus, Eastern Turkey, Tehran and Israel. It is also developing longer range ballistic missiles;
    *
      Iraq's current military planning specifically envisages the use of chemical and biological weapons;
    *
      Iraq's military forces are able to use chemical and biological weapons, with command, control and logistical arrangements in place. The Iraqi military are able to deploy these weapons within forty five minutes of a decision to do so;
    *
      Iraq has learnt lessons from previous UN weapons inspections and is already taking steps to conceal and disperse sensitive equipment and documentation in advance of the return of inspectors;
    *
      Iraq's chemical, biological, nuclear and ballistic missiles programmes are well-funded.

Try not to be an asshole for a change.

All i saw was well edited video and listened to a wanky pokey soundtrack.  Show me a unedited video from conception to finished product.  Not that don't realise home made bombs are a reality.  I don't buy the James Bond pen bomb.

BTW I mocked your source, not you.  Seriously did you expect anything less with THAT sentence.

If you do not think it is possible and plausible, then so be it.  I dealt with explosives for a few years, and I can tell you there is damn near nothing man made that cannot be turned into a bomb.  Believe what you want.

BTW, I am pretty sure a vid from "conception" to finished product would get you in trouble.

As much as i would like to investigate your claims further, i must stress i am from an ethnic background and newly gained knowledge; how to make a bomb from a pair of tights and some moisturiser would be me into her majesty's pleasure faster than i can blink.

My list of dumbest states would go something like this.

1.California, ( until LA and Frisco fall into the ocean)

2. Massachusetts.

3. The rest of the blue states.
