The FBI guy is quoted as saying it wasn't bomb stuff, so I don't think we should make assumptions until the FBI lab report is made public. I don't understand why folks here are so ready to convict these guys on the basis of scant evidence.

>>never heard of pipe bomb not being metal? is there such a thing<< What if they are just really stupid terrorists who didn't know they needed metal pipe? The FBI seized PVC pipe during the latest search in this case... ;) Ahmed Bedier, executive director of the Tampa chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, says says the FBI did take a suitcase that belonged to Mohamed-- but also grabbed other items that weren't his. “They seized the gas can they said was used for the lawn mower. They took some PVC pipes they said were used to repair the sprinkler system to the house,” he said the homeowner told him. Message 23789995
