Tanker Terrorism ? * USA - Connect the dots...

Tanker truck explosions have occured within days of each other at major highway intersections in San Francisco/Oakland, Houston, New Jersey, and Tampa-St. Petersburg.

USA -nukegingrich.wordpress.com, by nuke -May 16, 2007: -- I was aware of the Bay Bridge crash, mostly because of the reality check (or comic relief) that it provided for the 911 Truthers (”fire cannot burn hot enough to melt steel, yada yada yada”). The other events have been relegated to local news coverage... One occurrence: an unfortunate event. Two similar events: another unfortunate occurrence, a coincidence. Numbers three and four might start your spidey senses tingling... Especially when one of the events involve a tire that had 10 of the lug bolts removed... In Thursday night’s [Bay Bridge] incident, the trucker was heading south on Park Presidio Drive, on his way to deliver gas to a Shell station at 19th Avenue and Lincoln Way, when the left front pair of wheels on the tanker he was towing suddenly came off... “He didn’t even know anything was wrong until he saw the wheel pass him on the road,” said Michael Cheney, who happened to be driving the other way with his wife, Dianne, when one of the errant wheels clipped the backside of their Mitsubishi Eclipse... According to 21-year-old student David Wong, who was just behind Cheney in his brand new BMW, sparks began flying from beneath the tanker as its undercarriage scraped along the pavement. The airborne tire that struck Cheney’s car then ricocheted off the hood and side of Wong’s car — causing $3,500 in damage — before coming to a rest in the middle of the street. The second tire disappeared into the park’s underbrush... While waiting for the cops to arrive, — Cheney — who happens to be a mechanic for the Municipal Railway — examined the truck and found that 10 lug nuts had come off... Scary enough that a gasoline truck loses control in the middle of the park — but even scarier is that the double size tanker crossed the Golden Gate Bridge just minutes earlier...
