[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] The recent Finnish bombing of a mall was another of those "lone loonie builds bomb at garage and wants to test" things, apparently. The bastard got killed in the blast himself. Five other dead, one a young girl. About thirty seriously wounded. No political or other exterior motivation to the deed has been uncovered so far. Another blast, a car bomb, was given more international coverage because it happened near a synagoga in our capital. What the international press failed to realize was that in our capital, no matter where exactly something takes place, it's *always* near the synagoga, or the parliament building, or the presidential palace, or the US embassy. Helsinki just isn't that big a city. That car bomb was an organized crime revenge. The first of its kind in Finland, although some motorcycle gangs have played with hand grenades before, and there have been disgruntled citizens placing TNT in front of police stations or the local equivalent of IRS headquarters. Like in the mall bombing, the car bomber nailed himself as well - he had a remote detonation system which lacked in range, so he had to drive past his victim, and the blast threw his own car onto the sidewalk. Can you really call that sort of crime "organized"? Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
