The Bombs: Fake, But No False Flag

That's (a) the way it looks, and (b) my guess. That is, I think it's pretty clear by now that they were probably fakes. But as for the false flag theory: a false flag operation can't use fakes, can it? I mean, there's no doubt that the left loves hate-crime hoaxes...but you can't really pull one off with fakes. The point of such hoaxes is to make the right look worse than it actually is. Real bombs mailed to e.g. Obama and Clinton...that would do the trick. Fake bombs...not really. So what if somebody mails fake bombs to people? That's worth basically nothing. All an operation like that can do is blow up in your face, as it were. It doesn't really make the right look that bad...but if you're caught, the left looks really bad. Maybe it's a false false flag op...ever think of that, Mr. Smart Guy? Huh? Well...OTOH, maybe a lefty false-flagger would send fake bombs, figuring that the media will pump it all up enough to do the trick? Eh...I'm not buying it.
