Explosion Jolts Mexican Consulate

It's that damn Mexican food I'm telling ya.

Police and bomb squad units were called to the Mexican Consulate in Manhattan early Friday morning after two explosive devices were thrown at the building, causing a small explosion, WCBSTV.com first reported.

I'm guessing there were two bomb-throwers cause if there was only one and he had time to reach into his bag and throw a second bomb someone should be fired.

NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly said the two devices were replica grenades packed with explosive powder, eerily similar to an incident at the British Consulate two years ago. "There was a person seen on a bicycle today. Two years ago there were videos that showed an individual on a bicycle. We're still looking at it now," Kelly said.

A person on a bike in Manhattan? That can't be a coincidence. Maybe this is what al-qaeda's been planning in the tribal belt of Pakistan for the last six years? If so they've lost their pizazz.

I'm assuming they chose to use a bike as 1/2 an hour after the attack a car would be less than 2 blocks away . . . . . .

Just a guess.
