Terrorists keep having timer issues.

There are hilarious stories of daylight savings time killing terrorists.

NYC 'terrorist attack' video shows explosion in Manhattan | Daily Mail Online
  • A pipe bomb prematurely went off in an underground tunnel linking the Times Square subway station and the Port Authority bus terminal Monday morning around 7:20am
  • The suspect has been identified as unmarried 27-year-old green-card holder Akayed Ullah
  • Ullah came to the U.S. seven years ago from Bangladesh on a visa for people who have family in the U.S.
  • He was the only one seriously injured in the blast
  • Ullah was taken to Bellevue Hospital for serious burns and lacerations to his hands and abdomen
  • CNN reports that the bomb detonated prematurely and that if it had gone off as intended the damage could have been catastrophic
  • Ullah says he made the explosive himself last week, after reading instructions on the internet
  • The FBI has been swarming multiple addresses connected to Ullah in Brooklyn
  • Neighbors say they heard yelling and screaming coming for the apartment the last two nights and that Ullah was not a friendly person
  • Ullah told investigators that he carried out the attack as revenge for recent actions by Israelis against Muslim Palestinians in the Gaza Strip
  • The incident happened just days after President Trump sparked demonstrations across the world by recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital city
  • Trump said in a statement that 'lax' immigration policies were to blame for the attack, and urged Congress to 'enact legislative reforms to protect the American people'
