Elon: “Evil Knuckleheads Picked The Wrong Vehicle For A Terrorist Attack”
Responding to the deliberate detonation of what appears to be rudimentary explosive devices in a Cybertruck outside a Trump hotel in Las Vegas Wednesday, Tesla owner Elon Musk noted that the vehicle effectively contained the brunt of the blast and that the attacker couldn’t have picked a worse vehicle if inflicting maximum damage was the intention.
Las Vegas Sheriff Kevin McMahill announed during a press conference, “I also would like you to pay attention to, on that video, as you see that it looks like the exterior of that truck is completely intact as it sits there.”
“The fact that this was a Cybertruck really limited the damage that occurred inside of the valet because it had most of the blast go up through the truck and out,” he added.
The Sheriff further noted that “the front glass doors at the Trump Hotel were not even broken by that blast, which they were parked directly in front of.”
Musk asserted that “The evil knuckleheads picked the wrong vehicle for a terrorist attack. Cybertruck actually contained the explosion and directed the blast upwards. Not even the glass doors of the lobby were broken.”

The Cybertruck has a 3mm-thick stainless steel exoskeleton, and tests have demonstrated that the body panels can withstand impacts from 9mm and .45 ACP caliber bullets, without penetration.
So then, the question is why did the perpetrator, reportedly a Special Forces non-commissioned officer, make such choices?
Something doesn't fit. If he was SF with that experience, wouldn't you think he would know a solid steel cyber truck wasn't going to become shrapnel? What would be the point of blowing yourself up if it didn't cause maximum damage?

This one smells super fishy, to start–an SF NCO would build a better bomb and not use a cybertruck. Family all Trump supporters, father to newborn, fund raised for Catholic charities. Not radicalized, likely kidnapped/stolen identity, blackmailed/compromised, or worse…..

There are also questions surrounding the choice of ‘explosives’, given that preliminary findings suggest that the vehicle was carrying a combination of fireworks, gas tanks, and camping fuel in its bed.
With all of this experience, it’s odd that he chose to do things this way. Was he registered as a guest at the hotel? If he wanted maximum damage why would he use fireworks ? Why would he just park in front and not drive it straight through the glass front of the building?

Norwich grad? Smells like a CIA op that went bad.

Something's not right here. Has anyone actually interviewed people in Colorado Springs or this military base where these two were from? Family members, friends, other servicemen who worked alongside them? The Feds are up to something.

The FBI are now claiming that the New Orleans terrorist acted alone, and that the attack wasn’t part of a broader plot.
JUST IN: New Orleans terror attack suspect Shamsud-Din Jabbar intended to kill his family but was concerned media attention wouldn't be focused on the "war between believers & disbelievers."

The FBI says Jabbar posted multiple videos online.

They just can't report the truth of events. They can't simply just publish what happened. Not even once. https://t.co/91RXqN299m
