| PJ Media: Garage of San Bernardino Shooters Housed IED Factory |
| 2015-12-03 |
| San Bernardino's police chief painted a picture of a veritable IED factory in the garage of the husband and wife who shot up a county employees' Christmas party in San Bernardino. The death toll remains at 14, while the number of wounded ticked up to 21. Chief Jarrod Barguan said about 300 officers from local, county, state, and federal agencies responded to the attack from Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik, who fired between 65 and 75 rounds inside the auditorium of the Inland Regional Center. Officers found in a bag at the scene three pipe bombs rolled into one remote control car device "that appeared not to have worked in this case," the chief said. "We don't know if they attempted to do that and it failed or what the story is." |

| #11 B, I believe this was Al Qaeda in the planning and the supplying, so the holiday party/meeting was a natural primary target. The IEDs would have been icing on the cake for them had they worked. |

| #10 Yes, 'Fire and Police' are very likely targets, no, probable targets. But what pushed the terrs off their primary target? I can't believe that the Christmas party was their primary. It had the potential to be a 'game ender' and indeed was. |

| #9 Again, this employment place attack appears to be an alternative or secondary target. What was the primary target? For what target(s) were the IED's intended? Following a pattern, I would guess fire and police |

| #8 Always reactive, always behind the OODA Loop. Posted by Alaska Paul When General Mike Flynn commanded JIEDDO (The Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Agency) his thrust was discovery "before the boom." |

| #7 Again, this employment place attack appears to be an alternative or secondary target. What was the primary target? For what target(s) were the IED's intended? What event prompted a default to a secondary target, one where Farook was employed and known. If the workplace was NOT the primary target, was the primary target dumped because the pending attack was discovered? Were the explosives found to be inert...........? Lots of questions yet to be answered. |

| #5 My preliminary, tin hat bet is, he [and possibly his activities] were known to the FBI. |

| #2 Apparently a Watch List is exactly that -- certainly not a not To Do List. |

| #1 David Bowdich, assistant director in charge of the FBI's Los Angeles field office... said the FBI is studying "some international travel" on the part of Farook... "I do not know all the countries he visited," he said, pressed on reports that Farook had made a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia, but said the travels did include Pakistan... CNN cited law enforcement sources as noting Farook was "in touch with people being investigated by the FBI for international terrorism." Not another "Tsaranev"? |
